Hay Hambers!
U will love this! 1934 Wife catches old man screwing another babe! He says sorry will never happen again! To make it up to you honey go down & buy you any new car you want! She buys a 1934 Dodge 5 window coupe & put everything she could on it! Bumper guards frt & rear! Rear mount spare, Radio & even has red ball antenna! He looks @ it & says great! She takes it down 2 Weeks later & has it pinstripped goes home & old man hits the roof he hates pinstripping & almost divorced her right on spot! Car came out of Wa last registered 1959 Last ran 59 came to CA 17 years ago! Guy 10 blks from my house bought from grandson & never touched it! Now Its in Solo Speed Shop! Came with 4 new Sears Alstate Wide Whites! Been wrapped up forever, orig owner ordered from sears & never put on! They are @ least 20 Yrs old! Just took them down to have put on should look cool w/ wide whites! Get this car came from Clarkston WA My mom lives 1 block away from where this car was originally bought! Gotta call Mom she may have known the people! WOW Tks! Bill @ SOLOSPEEDSHOP

 

Nice car, however not a chance in hell I would mount over 20 year old tires, even if they were "brand new".

 

Yes!
I hear you! But they will be just for rollers! All tires went flat on trailer & have to get it off trailer so they will do for time being! Tks! Bill

 

Should work for that, just don't run them at bonneville

 

All Right Boss! Tks!

 

I LOVE the instruments!

 

Killer find. Happy Cruzin'.

VR&C.

 

please dont say they're going to f%&# it up. survivors are too rare

 

What? It didn't come out of a barn? lol...

 

Comin' out of Clarkston is just like comin' out of a barn. There's so much old stuff hiding out in that valley, guys will be street-rodding for years. I never should have left. Be interesting to know who the couple was. Back 'when' - I knew just about everybody in town (pop: 5271).

beautiful i like it and a cool story

 

Those are beautiful cars. I love my 34 ford coupe but a mopar has more room, hydraulic brakes, less wood and great styling, IMHO. I see it with new black paint, dropped down a bit with original wires and a 340, 4 speed. Yeah! I'd keep all the chrome pieces and not chop that top.
Oh yeah..I'd have to lose all the extra bumper guards etc.

 

So cool!
The Dodge coupe might me the best looking '34 from any mfg.

 

That bitch! LOL
I wonder if she was really downtown getting "Von Dutched"?

That car is an amazing find, best of luck with it.

Name on title Lou Schnell Had mom ck phone book & only one name in Grangeville ID Called it but no Relation! From past stories they passed away about 17 yrs ago!

40 Bucks & alil work & tires are on & looks way better! I have its brother a 34 PU pretty original Cool to have a Pair Of Mopars! Tks Bill

 

Nice car and truck! Some guys have all the luck! ( no rhyme intended!)

 

I did. A set of Allstate blackwalls, manufactured in the seventies, tread was over half gone when I put them on in '03. They finally wore out in '05. What's the big deal anyhow with a tire failing? In my lifetime I've had a few flats. DOH??. Pull over and put on the spare.

Whatever they do with it. Would make a bitchin' 'rod, or whatever..................

 

Wow, what a beauty!!!!!!! Damn, I'm so broke from my Merc, I can only salivate at these finds.. ... I'll be back..

 

Whats funny! There was a box of 5 Tubes in trunk in Plastic Bags! My tire guy put them on & said perfect shape! The tubes were way more heavy duty than todays tubes! Tires & Tubes maybe 20 yrs old but no cracks & hold air & look good & ps not leaving CA to NY for awhile! Tks Bill

 

I live in Lewiston Idaho just across the river from Clarkston WA. That is a sweat find and cool story. All the hot rodders in the valley will be jelous. I know I am.

 

Hey Peevee!
Lewiston is cool except for the Potlatch smell early in the AM! I lived there in lewiston 20 yrs ago & went back home to CA! My bro & mom stayed! My bro moved to a 40 acre ranch in Deary! Very cool Place! I was buying 80 acres next to his & gonna retire in ID & 4 yrs ago got that dreaded phone call Brother Pete flipped his Quad & died on his ranch! Changed my life & retirement plans! I get to lewiston at least twice a yr maybe we could hook up id like to see some town cars! Bro was Pete Fowler maybe you knew him! tks Bill

 

Love it!!!! Of course I am a bit partial!

 

Did these cars come with coil springs in the front or was it modified? I hope you leave it as is and drive it.

 

Like a piece of jewelry!! What a honey of a car, love the lines, very elegant. Thanks for sharing.

Cool dude!

 

Awesome car! Always nice to see another old Dodge.

 

cool !!!!!!!

 

Beautiful car, and great story. LOVE Mopars!

Great lines on those coupes. Fine example.

 

Solo...thanks for the info. Unfortunately I don't know anyone from Clarkston by that name. I live there from 58-62 and get back for a visit nearly every summer. Potlatch has cleaned up the aroma a lot. Back 'when' it used to bring tears to your eyes.
