    Here's a circa 1956 photo of Andy's Deuce Coupe at Ocean Beach in San Francisco:

    NOTE: On this day, Andy was participating in a "Rod Run" hosted by the Shifters_SanFrancisco.jpg car club ... their final destination was Mirabel Park (70+ miles north of SF near the town of Forestville on the Russian River).

    Looks like Andy dropped his headlight bar some time in 1958 or early in 1959. So the question is did Andy start the dropped headlight bar idea ? @HEMI32?
