    I spied this drop dead gorgeous 28 on Deuce rails at the Langley cruise. Pix aren't that great, but the car sure was purrrdy:D.

    Question: Does anyone recognize the grille shell?

    Thx..

    I think you're right. I know he was building one like that. Very nicely done. Anymore pictures?

    No...I'm still kicking myself. It was high noon and unseasonably hot. Photo ops were ugly. I was worn out from walking past 999 other cars. Then I stumbled across this one. Man I just about fainted. It's just kick ass (can I say that here?...L-O-L). The owner needs to know that:D

    Surely someone else shot some pix...or maybe the owner lurks here?

    Hi Dave: You really nailed it, my friend. Excellent job of putting together the right parts. Some of those neatoldstuff parts look very familiar and I am happy to see them find a good home. Leaving in a few weeks for the Hot Rod reunion in Bakersfield, will
    see what I can find at the swap meet. Dale is coming over from Tucson. Again, a great job on a "real" Hot Rod

  19. This is what I always see, and now I pass the sickness on to you:

    lol.. thats ok, i still like them.. ill just be sure never to paint them green or black :D
    chris.
     
  21. Thanks for the compliments! That was the first day out of the garage in 4 years. There's a few bugs to work out, but nothing serious.

    I bought the grille 6 years ago from a local old timer who thought it was from a French commercial vehicle...still remains unknown. The color is Model A Gun Metal Blue in nitrocelulose lacquer.

    It was a long build and had lots of help from many friends. Hoping to put some miles on her while the weather is nice.

    Terry, thanks for the parts and compliments. I'll see you and Dale at The Reunion next month.

    What size/make of tires did you use on the milk truck wheels?

    Thanks,

    Geoffrey
     
  25. Thanks Big Al and Brad2v! Can't wait to take her out again this weekend!

    Moonlight, the rear tires are Bedford 750-18's.

    Hey Dave...

    Any chance you have some build pix? I'm betting more than a few folks here would love to see 'em!

    And once again...Bad Ass Car man...

    Beautiful car. While I might have chosen a different grille and headlights, it's perfect for the owner so it's perfect for me too!!! Great looking engine, great color and a nice example of 18" wheels working on a hot rod.
     
  30. Hey Dave! Wow! You finally got it on the road. Congrats man, You take about as much time as me building a car. Looks killer. I see my dad piped in on this thread. He don't do that for just anybody you know. Are you bringing it down for the Reunion next month or are you flying in? Post some more pictures. You have a right to be proud.
