GARY T.

Had many hotrods when young--retired now--want to be young again!!Now I know some of U guys think I'm stupid,but I'm old and retired. When I was young I had plenty of hotrods--36 ford coupe flattie ,2 duces ,HC heads
50 ford convert leadsled
53 merc 2 dr ht with the biggest rake you ever saw
40 ford coupe with nailhead,3 duces and W&H dual coil dist (whens last time U saw one of those?
39 ford coupe with chev 348 3 duces& cam
THEN I met what is my wife now and she hated hotrods (real bummer)
So I sold the 36,the 39,and the v40,(had them all at same time) and bought a brand new 60 chev convert 283 ,3 on the tree,well she didn't know it but before long it had a duntov cam,solids,and AFB with alluminum intake. Then a muncie 4 spd---I went to pick her up one nite and she said what happeded to the other gearshift--I told her it broke and the cheapest one I could find was the kind that went on the floor Ha Ha
Then many years past and when I retired I told her I wanted another hotrod and thats when I got the T went with sbc because of availability of parts---its NOT a crate motor Just an overhauled one from a 92 pickup.
Don't mean to bore anyone,just wanted to give an idea of who I am
would love to send pics of the old cars,but lost a box one time when moving and all photo albums lost

HomadeHardtop57 found a 32 3window he wanted & decided to sell his 30 roadster. I was tired of the T and was looking for a roadster body,but Jerry's was just what I would have wanted to build so I bought the roadster,Jerry got his 32 a fellow from W.Va bought the T and we are all happy!!!When I was a kid looking in the little pages,I would see them fenderless roadsters all from California and I just loved them. Of course no one from here had one they were highly illegal,but always dreamed of having one AND NOW I DO!!!!
