Very nice! Remember, lower is always better. (My free advice.) Keep going on it.
Rik, and everybody, Great to see this '36 Ford pop up again. I have the thread on this car bookmarked, and it would be great to see some...
Thanks, Rik! I actually have that book; it's on pages 80-81.
Rik, that pink Ford shoebox coupe--photo dated April '61--from Bill Usedom's collection is amazing. Any more photos of that one? Thanks as...
Made by whom?
What do you call this? I should know, but I forget. Educate a forgetful guy?
Wow, very interesting place. Neat style. What year was it built? Congratulations on actually having a shop. I don't even have a garage right...
Wow, that's gotta be the save of the year. Whenever I lose something, it stays lost.
Yeah, that generator relocater is pretty sweet. Other stuff is nice too, though. Again, awesome score. Thanks for sharing more photos.
These trinkets you speak of ... anything we might enjoy seeing in a photo? I like trinkets.
Lee's got amazing style. Can't wait to see his Nomad. Do you guys know what wheels were on his LeSabre when he finished it? Love that car--it's on...
Wow, I need to see more of that early '60s Olds. Nice pix.
Unclescooby, Nice sign. What is it from, and how much does it weigh? Good luck. Wish I could offer some help, but I don't know a lot about...
Chris, That's a crazy, amazing project. Good luck! I vote for taking it back to what it was and 86-ing those welded-over fenders. And, dude,...
Ryan, This is one of the best articles you've ever linked to. One of the top pieces I've ever read about drag racing. Good job!
Taunuses are rad. I saw a Taunus van--late '50s, early '60s--at Memory Lane in Sun Valley about 8-9 years ago, and I wish I'd tried to buy it....
Two months later ... any news on this one?
Ayala version all the way! Less is more.
My opinion is that the car should be restored with its Packard grill. It's a gorgeous example of an early custom, and those wheelcovers are...
Wow--looking good. Can't wait to see more pix. This is good working-on-cars weather, for sure.
Wow--a '51 Ford with a '50 front clip and a Thunderbird Y-block engine. That's awesome! I always wondered what that engine was in the shot that...
Kevan, That's awesome! Keep up the good work, man.
I'm supposed to go Saturday. Can't wait!
Chris, Great job! Looks perfect. Can't wait to see what you do next.
Nice piece, Ryan. Your friend really knows what he's talking about.
Michelle, Thanks so much for writing this. People like Jim Kurten won't be with us forever, and it's important to remember them while we can....
Yeeesh! I'm running a '51 hood and '51 hood latch panel on my '49 Ford Club Coupe, so I'll be watching this thread closely. (Still rehanging...
Great photos, Chris. I like how you identified the owners, instead of just throwing up a bunch of random pics. Also, good to see Dale's Mopar,...
Like the man said, some must die so that others may live. Nice work cutting up the sedan. Can't wait to see this one get put together.
Wow, that Starliner's insane. Love the tires-wheels combo--and, of course, everything else.
