That's a bitchin' coupe! I love the color and especially the chrome wheels! Great job, dude.
It was a stub built by a guy that used to be in Dallas, and his shop was called Innovative Rod Shop. It's basically just like a Fat Man front...
Oh...It was in the September 2003 Rod N Custom magazine, in the "Young guns" section. And yeah, sorry about the message inbox thing. I try to...
I can relate to your screen name, because I was both young and poor when I built the shoebox. In fact, I pinstriped cars (or anything else I...
Ryan...it was good to have you as a neighbor at the show again this year, and I always enjoy our conversations, no matter how brief. I did...
You guys are lucky to get that car...even luckier to get it from a friend that obviously took care of it. Even though it's been sitting for a...
I'm actually pretty disappointed that no one has mentioned this book, authored by the HAMB's own Mike Bishop (AV8) and Vern Tardel:...
So bitchin'....you guys nailed the chop!
I will impregnate your mind! Good job Piero, looking forward to watching number 7!
One of my favorite Willys Coupes....such a bitchin' car. Looking forward to more progress photos!
I think you should open your wallet, let some of the moths out, and then order the correct Stromberg jet wrench from Uncle Max. If that's too...
Guy, I am assuming you have a 3x2 intake, since you say you only want to run the middle carb. If your Merc is 296 ci, you should be able to run...
Updates coming soon!
Thanks for all the kind words, fellas! I finally found a copy on Friday. Peter did a fantastic job on both the photos and article. Greg,...
I'll be there all the way from Dallas, Texas in the morning. Don't buy all the good stuff before I get there!
Here's a few links: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=104314 http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=463952...
Thanks guys! I still haven't seen it yet! But I do have a couple of outtakes from the Peter Vincent shoot: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] Thanks to...
The Buster Litton coupe is far and away my favorite...but I also like the Clarkaiser Utopia, which isn't talked about a whole lot. [IMG]
Thanks for the pics! I flew over last year to attend, but couldn't make it this year. It looks like Al has the roadster just about ready to...
Iron Ford, just a C-notch above the rear axle is all you need. Where you will need to spend a little extra time is on the rear spring hangers....
I checked them out at the show, and they look to be pretty nicely made. My inner traditional hot rodder wants to put them in the same category as...
It's great! Love the dash and instrument cluster! The minimalist details in the interior are really cool. See you guys there.
There seems to be some controversy as to what an "American hot rod" is as well. So, are you asking about the first car to achieve 200 mph in...
If you define hot rod in the traditional sense, as a car based on an early Ford body and frame, then Tony Waters was the first person to go 200mph...
Here's another photo just for the hell of it. [IMG]
Ask and ye shall recieve: [IMG] I bought these a little over a month ago, and just did a quickie straighten and polish job on them. I got...
Tony Waters was the first person to go 200mph in a highboy roadster. I got to meet him at Bonneville, and I'd say he had a heavy load of nitro...
I actually kind of enjoy reading threads like this that delve into the psychological side of hot rodding. I mean, that's really what we are...
G, I do think this is the same car, but I can't confirm it just yet. I think the reason no one up there could reach him is that by the time the...
The finned backing plates are indeed fully loaded with shoes, wheel cylinders, and all hardware...just like all of Bob's backing plates. The only...
