Thank you so much "manyolcars" for reminding me that we no longer need current folks for any reason, "the archives will surely help me in my...
It's a rock solid two door. Just have to get it home, should be easy enough, it now lives 300 yards uphill from me. As soon as the "Highboy" moves...
I had dealt with Tony DiCosta at Hot Rod and Custom Supplies for several years with great results, and I mean GREAT. I guess nothing lasts forever...
Hollywood muffler, like a "glass pack or steel pack". A little noisy one. Jay Y.
Hi folks, Seems that after Tuesday when I sold My HighBoy Roadster, after 62 years a Hot Rodder and hopefully taken a decent Model A in trade,...
I see Lou standing in the just left of the top back row. What nice looking cars. Most with original paint and a few "look good" goodies. T'would...
How I love the 1940 Ford Coupes. Jay Y.
Time has caught up with me. Not being a computer person, I have to say, "I wish the "HAMB" and the computer had been around a"while back". Just...
Nice. Took me over a hour just to look at the pictures.. Sure beats trying to thumb thru some magazines. Guess you can tell, "I'm not a computer...
Thanks so much for the replies. I'm so happy that we can all get out there and enjoy another "bit" of time in the "future past". Trying to get the...
Hi folks, Thanks so much for the replies. Guess I'm not too bad off compared to many others. NOT BAD OFF at all, at 73 still doing about a quarter...

Thanks folks. Jay Y.
Been a while since I've been here. Hope it still works. Jay

Tried to help somebody! J.Y.
One hell of a place to ask a simple question. Seems no one yet has been able to answer a plain out and out question! But, what do you expect, with...
I've dealt with Speedway since about 1960, good luck except for ONE transaction and a lousy ending for me. My fault for not reading the small...
Slick Willy, That roadster is just pure sex, love, memories or "whatever". Something about a "Flathead" with those 5 lower studs and a 5T cam that...
My Father used to take us there on Saturday nights in the early to mid 50's. Two of our local gents that I recall raced there quite regularly, Leo...
All of the above! J.Y.
I think, I think, I think! WOW. Jay Y.
That was my 34 5 window. What a shame, just about a perfect body. Jay Y.
