    Here are a couple of pics I would like to share with you. This is Harlan Frazier, and old Hotrodder from Santa Monica. I met him threw his son who bought some vintage go-kart parts from me on ebay. I sent the parts to him with one of my buisness cards with my track nosed roadster on it. I then received a phone call from a graveled voice. "Is this Joe"? I said ya this Is Joe. He said, My son gave me your card and I had to call you and talk cars. I said who is this, he said Im Wayne's father Harlan. I said oh hello sir. And we got to talkin. He told me he wanted me to come down and check out some hot rod parts that he wants to sell. I said wow!!!. Long story short. her are some pictures of his old roadster pick-up and brother and friends. I'll let the pictures do the talking.

    Oh and please respect the fact that these are someones family photos. Please do not publish or duplicate.

    I have the engine, gauges, stanchions, and chrome oil filter, intake and carbs. I am going to build the pick-up this year and drive it to his house and surprise him. He doesn't have a computer or tv.
