    Looks like an X- drag racer from the early sixties. I've seen some pictures of racing Bantoms that looked like that. I kind of like it! Needs some help......but don't we all?!

    it needs another door(on the passenger side), moved up about a foot and a half, an A bed, and a few other items would make it decent. But then again that is ALOT more than I started with, not that it even putt together yet.

  19. I remember seeing a 'sketchpad' article in one of the mags not too long ago, (maybe Rod and Custom?) about modified coupes. It was when the little modifieds were gaining popularity. Anyway, the designs looked similar to that. Here's the one that Zipper Motors offers...........

    K-member your body looks right the other (roadster?) is just plain wrong. Kind of like a puppy with 5 paws.
     
  21. Actually with the lid lowered it aint a bad lookin car, and I've seen less goin' for more.
    Maybe the lid could be lowered somemore and get it a little closer to the ground.

  22. THAT, fellas, is a REAL hotrod.

    The builder took something "regular" and formed it into something that didn't exist, before.
    Personally, I would have chopped and channeled it, but I didn't build it.
    If I was looking to buy a done rod, I'd be at my computer, Apr-03-04 19:11:46 PST.

    It's not a Florida car as such, but because Georgia is next to us we will claim it as one of ours.
