    Looks like we are getting off track.
    Wish I had taken more pictures of the T in the top photo. Truly a late '60 build. '57 ford steering-wheel Chevy V8 with 4 two's. Trying to track down my '50s childhood friend who's father Johnny Martinez built this T. If anybody knows John Lewis Maritnez an auto trans guy last known in the Arizona area lets find this car and the full fendered 32 Ford roadster next to it.

    Damned cool! It's amazing how cool "T" buckets are when you go out of your way to make them simple... One of my favorite mentors in this deal once said "Simple is hard..."

    I loved this car the first time I saw it and love it even more today. It could not be any better in any way, shape , or form.

    I wonder how it sounded to drive this car with just one of the exhaust pipes routed closer to your ear than the others. Probably a lot like a Harley.
