This is a post from 2007... dont know if this guy still owns it though...

Don't know, just hope nobody ever decides to change it. It is my favourite shoebox, period. Though if I ever win the lottery and buy it I would put a flathead back in. Ok, that was just a dream>

 

Always wondered what happened to that car after seeing it for sale on...was it Ebay? Smooth car.

 

That is my favort of old customized shoeboxes

 

It got sold the last thing I heard it was in the east coast

 

Rik thanks no he doesn't have it

 

nobody knows where this car went lol... i guess it just vanished

 

that car used to be in Torrance, Ca. I remember going surfing at the Avenues and seeing it parked on the Esplanade in 2004 and turning around and talking to the owner. Think he was in the Shredders? Amazing chop, and the owner was really down to earth dude too...

 

Yea he's my buddy we been wondering what happen to this car was hoping to get it back

 

I think buzzbomb here on the Hamb owned it after that, but had to sell it. He live close to me and I saw him cruising it around a couple times..

 

Yeah, my boy Johnny sold it to Buzz Bomb who then sold it to DLW another HAMBer...and that's all we know so far...

 

looks like DLW is still an active HAMBer, send him a PM and see if he still has it

 

This spinner wins. i want it.

 

I sent him a PM a couple days ago, waiting for a response

 

Btw it's not a '50, its a '51

 

I hauled it from LA to KC for DLW. Although I'm fairly sure it's been sold since.

 

Sound like you might know a little something....any idea where it might have went?

 

Yeap bad *** shoebox good work. By "STAR LITE" 2 bad johnny had to sell it .....

 

Im guessing this shoebox has vanished

 

yea to bad but he has his reasons for selling it ...starlite didnt build this car even though they did work on it.. Bill gave it the look

 

are you sure... i though it was a 50 i know he used the 51 dash...

 

That car has a great chop for a coupe...however, I think the Buster Litton Ford was THE BEST coupe chop ever...

 

you got pics of the Buster Litton Ford

 

now i recall that car looks somewhat like weesners car different look has the look and the flow but personaly not my taste....i guess every one has there own taste in vehicles

 

There are a ton of pics of it on Rikster's site...Weesner's shoebox is nothing like Buster Litton's...but Weesner did get his extended head light idea from the Wally Welch Merc. Litton's car has Studebaker fenders grafted on...

I've also been wondering where this Bill Hines chopped shoebox went- used to see it all over So Cal then I heard it left the state...I hope someone has finished it by now???

 

$20 says its a '51...

 

orale then ... $20.......u best pay up mijo

 

Haha I can't believe you actually took the bet, you like this car so much and don't even know what year it really is. I'm sure you've asked Johnny by now so like they said in Goodfellas "****you pay me"
