I love the peaked hood, would like to see the rest of the car. Does anybody know who owns it? I don't recall ever seeing a peaked hood on a shoebox before. It Rules. BB
I saw the owner posting pics of it on this board not too long ago (at least i think is was on the HAMB). He's fairly new to the board and I can't remember his screen name. I'm sure he'll see this post and post some more pics.
I believe the owner had a for sale sign on the front window and is a custom shop owner to and did all the work. I have pics but like all that were there, I could only get more of the fron being that the cars next to it on both sides kept from getting a better photo of it. That car was one of the cleanest customs along with the green flamed Merc that was slammed to the ground! KNUX!
here's his member page: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/member.php?u=11137 there is a link to his website, too. There are more pics of it there.
I've seen that car before. It's clean as hell, but I don't like the proportions from the side. As far as the hood peak goes, I have seen them around and I peaked the hood on my '49 Bus. Coupe about 5 years back. Just got to be mindful of warping the hood as there 'aint a whole lot of bracing in those things.
Bob you stole my picture...........here steal my other one. It's not as good, I was fighting a man in a wheel chair for space. JakdupCustoms does own it. It's on the hood.
PHOTO CREDIT ON ABOVE PICTURE TO MISS BRANDY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh ****, I'm in trouble now !!!!!!!!!!! I didn't really steal it Brandy, I was just so frustrated trying to figure out which of those girls were you and then when you said that none of them were. I lost my head and started thinking about cars again. BB
Ah Bob! It's cool, you can steal my pics anytime. I posted a peekture of me in that thread standing next to a truck cab I tried to walk off with...........but failed terribly. Fustration OVER.
hey thats my car Its cool everybody likes it makes me feel all fuzzy inside. Im really bad at taking photos of my stuff it seems like everybody else has all the cool pics. If ya need to know anything lemme know.
Thanks in case anybody cares I did drive it 6 and a half hours each way from yuma to vegas. I trailered it last year becouse of registration problems but now it is my daily driver.
If I had to pick something not to like (I know nobody asked me), I guess it's the pedals and bamboo shifter. The rest is tasteful and cool. The pedals are way too OCC or Jesse James for me. Otherwise DAMN *****IN'!
