Estate car, what do you think?

I bought this bone stock A coupe out of a friends estate. Just got it hauled to my shop & put a battery in it & it fired right off. Came w/ new rumble cushions & 6 new 19" whitewalls & rims. He had the restoration started before he died, so most of the hard work(motor, clutch,wiring, exhaust etc) has been done. Not sure of my plans yet, but I'm gonna drive it in our Memorial Day parade Mon. DAVE

 

Awesome. Congrats.

Say, didja ever use that Ross steering box I sold you?

 

I think, so you're not constantly reminded of your friend, you should give it to me.

 

Dave, I think it needs purple wheels. Ha Ha Ha

Nice!

 

I would love to find a coupe like that. Although I would want to loose a friend to get it.

 

i thinik you should put one of these http://www.secretsofspeed.com/RILEY.htm on the engine.

 

nice score!

I have contemplated many times of owning a stock coupe.
I would change to juice brakes, put '35 Ford wheels (which yours looks to have), a dropped front axle and not much more. If it runs really good I'd consider some hop-up parts for it. A flat motor would be cool but I'd leave the body all stock.
Sweet little ride, enjoy.

 

Lucky Dog.

 

Dave, nice buy! They are fun to drive and very reliable. Enjoy it. Keith

 

Aaron, I thought you could only use purple wheels when you chop the top. Actually the 19" wheels that came with it are yellow, is that cool or rockabilly?
Cause I really want to be one of those guys. DAVE

 

if i had one of these i'd leave the hood off.

 

How tall are you on your tip toes?

 

Jason, thats my son. We did that to see if anyone would catch it. You win the prize. BTW he 5'11" & I'm round. DAVE

 

was your friends name Carl by chance?

 

Nice score!

 

I think I LOVE IT.

that RULES.

Yellow is for the new school rockabilly pompariffic heros. Red is for the status quo. Ha Ha ha

I was thinking about you the other day. I may have to make a road trip if I get a rainy couple of days.

Don't you know, baby blue is for ***s!

Queer eye for the brown eye, just like James Dean.

Dave, I have a line on a 27 T coupe in similar condition with a simliar story. To my favor, the auctioneer ****s and doesn't know how to advertise. We will see.

Looks good Dave. Really makes the chopped one look looooooow.
