The paint color was mixed by Mike Coy there in the shop. It's loosely based on photos of the Lajoie-Redding Bluebird Special '33 Ford that...
As a bonus just for you guys, here's a photo of the car as we found it. I haven't shared it anywhere else yet. It had been sitting here since...
Wow, thanks so much for the positive support so far! I'll be honest, I was a little skeptical that I could help these guys build a hot rod like...
No longer for sale.
I ran across these photos of Buddy Boren's channeled deuce roadster on Facebook, and thought they would be a good addition to this thread. Photos...
I bought this column drop from Mitchell Rasansky at the Pate Swap Meet a couple years back. It came from the Adams roadster, and it will be...
Ford Flathead aluminum heads. Fits 8BA, '49-53 Engines. Used, bit in nice shape, no missing fins. Deck side looks good, and I think you could...
Does anyone know anything about this Willys that was posted earlier in the thread? It has a LOT in common with my '41, which I have no photos of...
Fantastic photos! Some of the best I've seen from this year's event.
Pair of Magnesium wheels, 16x4.5, with early Ford 5x5.5 bolt pattern. These wheels look like Halibrand, but were actually used on extremely early...
SOLD.
My 331 (bored .060" ) (in the coupe in my avatar) is very close to 11:1 compression. Some background on that statement... It started out with...

Another photo from The Race of Gentlemen. [ATTACH] I've made a few changes to the car, and I need to update this thread soon.
Tom, I just sent you an email. Thanks.
Here's the racer card from this year's "The Race of Gentlemen." Leaving in a little over a week...and I'm about to pull the motor out of the car...
Bruce, I called Exeter Auto Supply, and Dan is apparently no longer there. They said to call him directly for Offenhauser parts...which I've...
I believe that '41-42 was bakelite or plastic.
Paging Dan Marvin....Dan Marvin to the red phone.
I know this is a really old thread, but are you still making these, dmarv? I need to order one if so.
My '32 5-window is still a ways off since I have a '41 Willys and a '33 Ford PU to do first. I also still have my '29 Coupe and I want to get it...
I miss the '29 when I bury my foot in the throttle! That little 283 would really move. I've found that I can get a similar thrill out of driving...
Everybody likes pictures right? Here are some more pictures of the roadster, including photos from the Hot Rod Hillclimb and Reliability Run in...

I just looked and I can't find any photos of where I worked on the front crossmember. I guess I didn't take any for some reason, or I...
PM me if you want to sell the front wheels and decide on a price. I'd like a set of those for my Willys, and that bolt pattern will fit it.
I thought some of you guys might want to hear what the flathead sounds like, so I made a short video of it firing up. [MEDIA] A lot of people...
Ron, they might be. I have two pairs, the ones I got from you and another pair I got from a local guy. I can't remember which ones are which...
