    I have a 1932 ford 5-w coupe that at one time belonged to Bob Bushman which was white with brown scallops, bobbed rear fenders and motorcycle fronts. Then Sy Gregorich who changed it to its present configuration that is yellow and full fendered. It was painted yellow by Chuck Miller, upholstered by Jim McFall pinstriped by Paul Hatton. The next owner, Tony Carlini added the louvers. I am looking for any history, pictures or stories involving this coupe. Especially when Verne Mulligan owned the coupe and the coupe invovlement with the Preditor Carb Company in the '80 and 90's in California. I am looking for pictures of the coupe at the Detroit Autorama Shows. I am posting photos of the coupe when it was at the Autorama in 1961, 1976, 2012. 2012 I took the coupe to the Autorama and gots many responses but still looking to fill in some of the gaps for the Coupe.
    Thanks.

    Thanks,
    Bob Bushman built the car in the late fifties and early sixties. It began as all white, decided it needed more ummph! :eek:) and added scallops. Paul Hatton of Detroit did the scallops
