The dimensions are 7'9" and about 25 inches in diameter at its broadest. Its rather fat towards the front, and the pic is at a bit of an angle....
Thanks for the tips guys. Steel for sure, and super thin gauge to keep things light. The bottom half has almost no rust or damage, so I may make a...
Here's the pic..... [IMG]
The seller said this was from a P51. It seems to be about right comparing some pics I've seen. Definitely smaller than the P38 tanks by several...
Thanks for keeping the show in Santa Maria. Its the one event I look forward to every year. The whole town digs it! Once upon a time there was a...
PE's are no joke! Hope he gets well soon and can be here for the show this year!
The radio trophy is really cool! How'd you find it? Does it still work?

Found about 25 NHRA trophies at an estate sale today. Whats cool is, the center medallion has the "Dedicated to Safety" script on the inside. It...
One of the ears on the SB bowl to throat is broken off, so its probably not fixable, the choke is an S-41-A model. The other horn is for the...
All of the carbs say Winfield Model S on the body. Two of the throats have the serial number 'SER.-SC' on the side followed by a 4 digit numeral....
Wow! Horseless age. Funny to think of that now. The guy who owned these was a pioneer in Southern California hot rodding, and participated in...
I couldn't find any images on the net of these. Anybody know what they are? They're Winfield also. [IMG]
Bought a box of Winfield carb parts today. There's not much on these carbs aside from the 'S' type units. From what I've found on the net, they...
Fox, your truck from years past is about as cool as they get. I'd be willing to sell it to someone who, like you, has built one before. The...
Good suggestions guys! I'll check into those different chassis.
Yeah, the rear wheels would stay in the exact place as you see them, but the front would be stretched. Fenders removed, and no hood. Body would...
I just bought this 38-39 American Bantam pickup. It has a rectangle stock frame thats a little cobbled, a bent 9 inch and a mystery front...
Santa Maria is also one of the few places with a Drive-In. Incorporating this into the Saturday evening could be a cool touch. Is it possible to...
I had a great time at the show, everybody I know did. Thanks for the effort it takes to put on this event. How about live music during the...
The town is already FLOODED with hotrods! I just cruised Broadway and the Santa Maria Inn parking lot was full, as were many of the small motels....
FTW!!!!! My Plymouth. [IMG]
See ya there! I'll be the jackass sitting along the cruise route with no wheels.....not the only one tho. Nice non-SBC powered ride too.
They're still out there, keep hunting!
[IMG] Bought this two weeks ago for a grand. Its a 41 Plymouth Club Coupe. Zero rust, and the seller was the second owner since 1954. It...
Its in a ravine near an abandoned mine in the National Forest. Pretty remote, so its probably going to stay there! Looks to have been pushed...
Another pic...... [IMG]
Found this on a little adventure. I assume its a mid-20's Ford. Oddly, it has leafs all around. None of the axles or drivetrain is there, so its a...
