Hot Rod Therapy - Post Some Pix

Hi Everyone,

Almost weekend for me.. been a **** week. So, post me some pix to cheer me up. I know there was the Marcus driven show us your car thread...but there must be more hot rod pix lurking at the bottom somewhere. Need to adjust my mind space before I head home and work on the ride.

Danny

 

Ok, Boi, here goes.

 

How about some Lucifer pics? They always make me happy!

 

Mmmmmmmm....Lucifer! Now I got a stiffy, for pete's sake!

Hey Mate,

Whew, thanks I needed that

Is that ride yours? I'm sure I've seen it in maybe American Rodder, with a caption along the lines of the owner wasnt even born when this 40 was chopped.

Danny

 

Hey Spotty,

Damn, I've gone from a hard day to just....hard.

Sweet sweet ride....

Danny

 

I should deffinitly note that its NOT my car! But mine might kinda look like it.

 

I only wish it was mine. No, just some of the cars from last years Hunnert Car Pile Up.

Here's another...........

 

know what cheers me up? this

 

From a local show...H

 

2nd one engine...H

 

K$R did a model of this---

 

Danny,

Gowjobs like this get built when ex-hippies like my dad are left unsupervised for too long...

 

Hi Guys,

Thanks for posting - brought a smile to my face... and that last one.... very funny!

Danny

 

How 'bout this?
Sam.

 

.....or maybe this?

 

Or even this?

 

haha, is that Jimmy White getting a ticket?

I have seen a vid of his and the way he frives I am amazed he still has a licence!

 

Yeah that's Jimmy. It was staged...If you'll notice there's a beer can on the top too. FWIW, the cop was really cool...he was having an RPU built at Gordini's in Fremont.

Here's a couple more pics I took the same weekend at the Asphault Invitational. One of these days I might get off my *** and post the rest of the pics I took.

This car was in TRJ a while back...a true survivor from Sacramento in the early '60s. A chick owned it then:





The blown flatty was added after Jim Stroupe bought it.

 

This has been my thereapy, I hope to get this running under it's own power again in a few weeks....

 

Jimmy's car is... well, man!

here's one of my favorites. when I forget why I like hotrods, I just look at this picture

 

here's mine, first time it's ever been on a trailer,

 

Somebody should clone that Desoto-grilled, injected Y-block 5-window...that has to be one of the baddest looking 33-34s ever.

Was it ever featured in any magazines other than that picture?

 

Here you go, how about this

B***, you got good taste. I scanned that thing from a TRJ a few years ago and made a large copy for my desk at work. It is from the sqare roll bars book I think. I dont own that book so I dont know if there are more shots of it.

that is the best looking hotrod in my eyes..... ever. ****ing bad.

 

Yeah the TRJ article is also the only place I've ever seen it...since I don't have the "Cool Cars Square Rollbars" book either.

Maybe someone on here knows some more about it? The thing is too ****ing killer.

 

Hi Guys,

There is some really sweet rides in this post. i think enough therapy to last me a little while

Danny

 

Danny, are you kiddin? I want more......

especially of that 34/5 window.....

(Note: Good to see you're still lurking Mr Ito, get that thing on the road....)

Now back to that coupe....? B***, Gooch, AV8 someone?

A.

 

Hi Drewfus, Yep I have been out of touch for a while, I ran into Merc50 recently, and it got me thinking of the HAMB again.
I started redoing my 33 last year. I set the engine up a little higher to fill the engine bay, more chrome,etc. I really like the coupe that Gooch posted, in fact I purchased a pair of ET 10 spokers for the G***er look. Once I mounted them up I was dissappointed, I guess I like symmetry? it returned to the back of the garage for monthes.
I have the Americans on it now, but here is a shot with the 10 spokers.
