Hot Rods 1932 five window , lost in time

Wonder if anyone can help identify this old hot rod. From Brea Calif. I was told it was a show car, drag car and magazine car in the early 50s parked in 61. Owner passed. Got very little info when I bought it.

 

Pretty cool whatever the history! Let’s see under the hood!

 

I Know it’s Cool! What’s the drivetrain?

 

my files are to big won’t let me load them, it has an early Buick nailhead w 6 strombergs

 

Looks like 40 ford

 

Man I've been missing this...hot off the presses...yes 1956...I mean 1959 till today...time capsule indeed. You are very fortunate...please keep us posted.

Welcome to the Hamb @HotRodJoe454.

Maybe you could send them to a moderator in email toll you figure out how to make them smaller.

Thats great blog material. Get that oiled, greased and gassed up and giver some much needed love.

@Ryan, @Moriarity

 

Steering wheel and dash had a gold base under candy red or was it blended gold to red

 

There's no better way of knowing what a Hotrod was back then with that unmolested excellence you have found...to think that was tucked away from the masses the year before I was born...

@HotRodJoe454 did you get any vintage pics from the estate. Maybe in a kind way ask the family. Time is of the essence.

 

Cool don’t change a thing that’s not broken.

 

OP is flipping it in the classified. Pics would help

Well that's not uncommon really...I guess this is a History / Provenance Thread of sorts. It deserves a Thread as many rides in the classified do. It archives it in a forum as opposed to a deleted ad... It's up there in price too...no surprise really. I hope it gets to good place and pays us a longer visit...or he decides to get it going and experiences 1959 all over again and enjoys it for a year or two.
