    Baron this is great! Any idea of the year and location? I see the 1963 Fairlane 500 box top in the background. Also I see the Falcon was 1963 from the moldings. Almost bought this one too in the early 80’s

    Do you remember a Roland “Rollie” Bell owned Bell Auto in NorthReading, MA in the late 70’s. He owned/believe to build my 56 G***er....look for additional history on this one. Engine is an 1961 Buick 401 Nailhead

    Holy cow, I know this is old and it's "bad etiquette" to reply to a year old forum post but I don't care ... Larry with the yellow fenderless coupe pictured above is my uncle that I've been looking for for a while now! He painted it purple at some point in the early 90s.

    Someone just referred me to this thread. I am Paul Gr***o's daughter and Tony Gr***o's niece. My Uncle Tony was not in Vietnam - there was another Tony Gr***o I believe (heard he had a gas station) My Uncle did sell his 34 Roadster to Tim Carroll. Tim's son now has it in his garage and last I heard the family was trying to restore it.

    Hey Church! Sorry to bring up such an old thread, but if you’re still here in this forum, I’d love to get that photo of the Instant T at the car show. It’s my dad‘s car and would love to be able to download that photo!
    Thanks !

    I know these are not what you are looking for, but thought you might like to have them. I took these at the 2014 Hot Rod Reunion.

    My Chevy was found on Cross street Malden. Last registered in 1975 before I got it in 1990. Was candy red with multi colored prism and planets on the hood before the red oxide primer seen here, Anyone remember it? 283/muncie/4.11 182 (1).jpeg
