Sorry, I wasn't able to click a photo as the car went across an intersection [72nd and Sorenson Parkway] before I could get my cell phone outta my pocket but this is the car: Appears to be a late 20s/early 30s GM or off brand 3 window coupe body in dark metallic purple [MoPar Plumb Crazy] . A highboy with no hood and either a 429 Ford shotgun or maybe a modern 4.6 ford cammer....couldn't tell as it flew past quickly. Had chrome or aluminum wheels [bigs and littles] with black tires and open exhaust headers........car runs a manual transmission too. Any of my homies know this hot rod? I'd love to BS with the guy. PS.....I suppose the body could have been a ford sport coupe with metal top? I dunno for sho.
No white stripes...and I was in my work van....even with 283 HP. it's not a wailer. Anybody else?? Malcolm? Jason? Rob Lee?....Bueler?
Hey! I went to a local cruise night on the north end of town and saw that purple car! Turns out it's a shortened 29 ford coupe. Has a late model 5.4 ford engine with carburetion. Not really a traditional HAMB car but I'm glad I finally saw it up close.
Might not be Hamb friendly but those valve covers are cool looking Would look sweet polished Needs a different 710 cap
A chopped channeled AND shortened coupe? Was he a leprechaun? I couldn’t get my torso into a car like that.
