Does any one know Bruce LeClair

I am trying to re-establish contact with Bruce. He was building a neat '36 Ford 2 doorr Phaeton. Last I knew he was in M***achusetts and the car was in Philadelphis. PM me if you have his number or email. Thanks.

 

Since Ford did not make a Tudor Phaeton in 1936 I'll have to presume you mean a Tudor sedan with the top cut off, or a Tudor Touring sedan with the top cut off, or a Fordor with top cut off and the abck doors welded shut, or a Club Cabriolet with the rear section of the body modified to resemble a tub, or...

 

btt Someone must know Bruce. His car was going to be a standout. Maybe he is in another state. PM me if you know someone with this name. Thanks.

Is that the pheaton that metal master Dave Simard made into a two door touring?

 

When I saw the car in Philadelphia it was being built by a 70 to 80 year old man who really knew how to shape steel. It was a tudor, and he made a sedan delivery type door in the back, with some late model fender hugging headlights. Much needed to be done, but it was going to be a knock out. Thanks for the contact info.

 

Hey Pasadena, I failed to see the purpose of your posting? Here is a guy trying to re-establish contact with someone, and you somehow saw that as an opportunity to berate Fasi about the fact that he didn’t know that there is no such thing as a Phaeton in 1936. Well congratulations, you’re the smartest guy you know! There are a lot of great things about this site and the people on it. But a Napoleonic rant like that represents a good portion of what is wrong with it, too.
