    I'm looking for some pics of mcphails old redish looking galaxy. He sold it awhile back to someone but I don't remember who.

    I remeber it sitting real low and having scollops all over it and possibly some striping and or lettering on the back I can't remember its been to long ago since I have seen it.

    I believe the car was around a 63 or so?

    Or any pictures of any cool early 60's fords with flake or panel paint jobs. anything from mild to wild.

    thanks

    Are you talking about that astro/skinnies shod, red with white roof and "sclames" Galaxy (63?) or that Titus chopped, smoothies/blackwall shod, "sclamed" Mercury Marauder (64?)he had? I used to drool over the little pic of it in Custom Rodder around the mid 90s or so. That car just said "midwest" all over it! I'd love to see pics of that car...

    I also read and re-read the article on the build up of his 52 before his maiden voyage to Paso until the pages fell outta the mag.

    Yes that was the car I was looking for destructo thanks. You don't have a good shot of the rear of the car do you? I checked out the pics on the main site but the pic of the rear of that car isn't very good to tell what the details of the paint are. That was on the denison 99 shots.

    Thanks again.

    Heres a photo of McPhails Merc Marauder as it appeared in 1996.
    Anyone remember him driving a greenish 50 Buick to the Hangin' Dice
    several years later? Was that his car or someone that ran with him?

    Here is the Buick I was talking about, ok it could be a '52, photographed it
    in 1999 because the flames had the McPhail feel to them, so I figured he
    either worked on the car or it was his.

    The one McPhail car that I really went gah gah over was his white Chevy
    Business coupe as seen in this photo from 1998

    The buick I believe is Voodoo Jims from around witchita, and the white chevy is the same chevy mcphail still owns. But now its chopped with shiney purple paint.
