    Automatic? ****** cooler. Not all hot rods have 3 pedals. Love the tires and wheels!

    There's a few cars in this book (with other details) that will make you think the same... but that's another post for a different thread. Haha. Plenty of cool stuff in these pages, though.

    I agree, It has the look of a nasty hard core street racer. Menacing and all business.

    I always narrowed rear ends and offset the wheels to avoid hangin tires, but this thread has changed me. All those mis-spent hours of my youth tucking tires under the car. :cool:

    @BRENT MAGGI got me pumped up with his A coupe pic and it inspired me to snap a pick of mine.

    Is that a Sedan turned into a Roadster Pickup? Tops of doors don’t look like Roadster doors, more like what a lot of Coupester doors look like.

    You need to pour some Clorox on the street and do a big Smokey burnout, it will clean up those slicks and impress the neighbors.

    My goal is to prep 60 feet or so of the street in front of the house with Radir rubber.
