Please keep them coming......this is about real Hot Rodding
Sure do...........but have also noticed most who say it are jealous losers. If you like superb build quality, handling and performance you'll...
That has to be one of the all time great hot rods. I did read somewhere that the colour is fairly accurate and that the colour shots back in the...
34's are a hard car to do radical bodywork on and get it looking right. While not to my taste that is a killer car with lots of nice touches. I...
I also have lived in Japan for many years and the guys over there build some brilliant cars and really take pride in them. The reason they sell...
Absolutely period perfect.......it is a credit to the guy that he hasn't deviated fromt he stance and look that is correct for this car. The spec...
I was wondering exactly the same. If someone did that to a collection of 30's Fords everyone on here would be wanting to burn them at the...
I think the line between Hot Rod and Race Car would be getting crossed with 999. Certainly in the teens and twenties lots of Model T's where...
It intrigues me why a small minority on here think it is ok to behave like Poor White Trash and make total arseholes of themselves because they...
Thanks for posting. The 36's are awesome .The one with the Pines Grill looks great and the Love Is Blue 3w really has me hooked. I keep going back...
That 36 Moredoor is awesome. Very subtle changes that end up with a classy looking car......a true custom.
"Write to teach, not to sound good..." That is one of the more profound things that I have read in a long time. It is very important to get...
Really impressive skills both as a fabricator and more important as a Dad. You are a real example to us all.
Ratstar I wish I'd had my shit as well together at your age as you seem to have. Hang in and go forward. One thing I have learnt is you can't...
It's just turned 12.01 25th December down here so Merry Christmas to you all. Please stay safe over the holiday period and have a great time. I...
I thought this was for unsung legends. Somehow don't think Denise qualifies on the grounds that everything she does gets more self generated...
It is a Mk7 1954 or earlier. The 7 had the fog lights mounted in the front bodywork whereas the 7m had free standing fog lights and the old...
Pete....I was bringing engines, trannies, performance gear and body panels into NZ in the 70's and early 80's so I'll give you a bit of advise....
That Roadster is right up there with my favoutite all time car the Henderson Roadster in its traditional beauty and simplicity. All the guys...
Woman have always been involved around cars as drivers, owners, mechanics, supporters and many clubs would never function without the work that...
The 32 3 Window really looks good. The Europeans seem to really understand what is traditional.
Way to many changes for changes sake to be a 40,s era style of Custom. The 40's were about taking a car and making it far better than the original...
Just got mine down here in New Zealand this morning. I deal in rare and valuable motoring books and it takes a lot to impress me but this is...
Anything by Hunter Thompson, likewise anything by Dominique la Pierre (I think spelling is right) who does historical novels that are fact based,...
I can certainly recommend Gary Doyles books. Not cheap but they are superbly written and illustrated. I actually have limited leather bound...
Thanks Al. A lot of 34 coupes just seem to miss the mark slightly but that buggar pretty well nails it.
That 34 Coupe is real woodie material. Does anyone have motor details etc?
I'll second that. Please what is the story on that old beauty. Does anyone have more shots...under bonnet, interior etc.
Yet another really awesome Model A. Be proud of this awesome piece of history that you have really brought alive.
As a former dealer who specialised in sports cars for some years I always seemed to get the best money in Winter as that was when buyers thought...
