Our Buddy and fellow "fox valley hunk" Bob K. dug his 5 window deuce out tonight, and stopped by the shop where me and "Fancyboy" were putting some of the finishing touches on one of the shop cars. his 32 is SOOOO SWEET, he built it in '72 .... it is one of the coolest cars around here, and it goes like hell to.... his deuce will be coming to the pileup along with some of our junk in october....... LUKESTER
Bob gave me a ride in his '32 tonight.... Damn. This car goes as good or better than it looks. We also had a stray cat wander into the shop. Bob likes cats and decided he would find the cat a home. The Fox Valley Hunks now have a cat, his name is Duece. Man what a night.
Is that the same BobK that drives the green and white street rod? About the car... it's the grafitti coupe without all the things that make the grafitti coupe ugly... I like it. Sam.
Rocky, Its got a brown leather T&R and diamond type interior, he's had it forever, but it don't go far, cause of the 4.56s.... His name is BOB Konrad, and he lives a couple blocks from our shop..... LUKESTER
The car has a dark brown tucked interior, very comfortable. It suits the car very well. I think some guy in Milwakee did it in the 70's for a song. Lukester could you fill us in on the details about the interior?
Nice car, what color is that anyhow????? kind of a cross between piss yellow and puke green??? It's definately not a field car right??

Skippy, I don't know what the specific color is. There isn't any green in it though. To me its a bright yellow. Sad to say that Bob had the old lacquer paint stripped and the car was given a modern paint job. Bob has been railed for his mistake, no one has ***ulted him over this yet.
That car was the baddest car around when it was built in 72, and it's standing real tall today. It's perfect....I love it.
When did AG come out? I thought it was after '72? I should go dig out the DVD. So did he build it before or after AG came out? Skippy - Definitely Piss Yellow... after a big night out on the VB!!!
Damn....I can't believe that has been in my "backyard" for the entire time I have lived here and I have never seen it. BobK your car Rocks! I love the bobbed fenders! Damn WI laws TDC
He said he started building it before the movie came out, but didn't know what he was doing or wanted, then he saw the movie, and decided what he wanted. The car was yellow with flames until last year, now its BRIGHT yellow with red pinstripes. we need to get bob on the computer. we sent him to the cheaters show to scout around and now he's all fired up AGAIN..... LUKESTER
To all those concerned,graffiti came out in '73. What a cool car,bring it to Fondy in 2 weeks on the 20-21st.Also if you didn't know JYD's coupe was built in '71 and was painted bright yellow,long before Graffiti came out.So who is in the right.Just a little F.Y.I. DAN
If Boyd was still with us he wouldn't car that car *****in, it would need more billet and the right wheels.
