That is perfect looking as is, nice score!
The tattoo shop I think. If you see a red and white 55 crown vic with no front bumper then thats me.:)
Great to see Jason Sheets' T roadster featured, he currently is working on a 34 ford 3 window coupe which is also awesome. His dad also builds...
Trying to get my T altered done for this show, still have some work but as long as no unexpected things happen I should be there. Cant Wait!
Wow, that is really looking good. BTW is that a whippet grille shell?
Hey Go2hells, I think I saw your 50 ford or one similar parked on main street Shippensburg about 2 or 3 weeks ago.
Came across these, pretty sure all of them were takin in 1963. Does anyone have any other pics they could post?
Found this at this link, http://www.motormenders.com/history.html "In 1954, the White Rose Timing Club started a drag strip at the Thomasville...
That is absolutely stunning, someone really did their homework on this one. One perfect looking coupe.
Great pics and cool story, I'm pretty positive those color shots are from mason dixon dragway, hagerstown MD.

No second thoughts, just wanted to see if it was available in the mid 1960's. After all the work measuring and cutting to make sure everything...

According to KOA's flyer, Rat rods, imports and mini trucks are welcome. And they give a 200.00 dollar award for the best "ratzee" rod, whatever...
Some very awesome photos.
I can almost guarantee that this picture was taken at Mason Dixon speedway which is located near Boonsboro, Maryland. I have collected many photos...
The diner is long gone, it was tore down last year. The Victory has the best food around, IMO. The only thing the showdown needs is someone...

Damn, all kinds of cool stuff being found. Hope to see this on Saturday.
That kicks ass, proof that there are still old hot rods out there.
smith&welsh, thanks for scanning and posting all those pictures.
I have a bunch of pics from Mason Dixon Dragway from the 60's but your altered is in none of them. If I come across any I'll let you know.
I agree that red wheels have been over played quite a bit and 90% off all shit mobile rat rods have them but there are still some very nice...
Hey Todd, How's about a match up against my D/Altered 23 roadster when your done restoring your's? How's the Jalopy showdown drags 2010 sound.;)...
