    Here's a few of my '37. Totally original when found, a lot of rust repair and 2" chop later (2" front, 1" rear) and it's now knocked apart for expoxy and paint. Original pictures of '37 front view.jpg

    Original pictures of '37 side view.jpg

    I bought my '31 Chevy 5 window coupe for a paltry $2,000, a complete non-running hot rod in Brentwood, Long Island New York back in 1995... Original build date was in '68, as evidence of the wide pleats and pleated dashboard. The car was in storage there for 19 years, still showing a '76 N.Y. window registration stuck proudly on the windshield... Three months of thrashin' on my coupe with a buddy and other friends on my driveway gave the car to cruise the streets once again!
