    I'm looking for pictures of fenderless, chopped or unchopped but channeled cars
    with a lean towards compe***ion/show

    here's a few to get it rolling

    here's mine again,

    just got the blower drive and forged pistons from Goatroper02
    the blower is setting on a late 394 here,
    it will go and and a '57 371 will take it's place

    'dropped the rotating ***embley off to get ballanced,
    the #16 heads to get completely rebuilt,
    had a nice original Isky blower cam refreshed at Delta Camshaft
    and got the manifold back from the welder's-
    I had to have the ports reduced to fit the earlier heads..

    I know it looks alot the same but
    things are starting to happen again :)

    I dig every era of modified Model A coupe, but it's that Milner chopped Hi boy look that makes me wanna trade the '53. throw on some chrome reverse rims, a pontiac mill with 2-4s, a candy paint job with tuck and roll inside. YOWZA!!

    from nowhere...

    This will be good...very good!
    The perfect balance of nasty, tasty, and still, somehow retaining a bit 'O cl***y.
    IMO, this was when the most perfect of all hot rods were created...
    At the pinaccle, but before the fall....
    Can't wait to check back to this...

    For pure kick ya in the see u next tuesday DW's coupe is a pretty wild example of getting it done, unchopped no frills I will blow your doors off style and Jimmy's coupe with a wicked sounding solid Hemi.....both cars are enough to keep you from wasting time and getting in the garage and working on more stuff.

    One of his first runs.........

    This is my favorite Model A coupe...love those Packard wheels! It's been featured in some magazines so I'm sure several of you have seen it before.

    Nice thread, Paul. I don't know why some like the '32 Fords... the 1930 - 31 coupes are the best Ford hot rods.
