Hot Rods Anybody remember the Stroh's T build in Hot Rod? 1980s?

I got to thinking about different things, and remembered the Stroh's T build-up in Hot Rod Magazine from about the early '80s. Anybody remember that car? Anyone know what happened to it?

It wasn't a T, it was a '29 phaeton front half done as a modified. I always liked that car other than the paint and wheels and stuff. Lil' John*****era was the prime mover and shaker on that one, and HOT ROD covered it in multiple parts in '81 or '82. I think Buick was in on the deal too, 'cause it had a V6 in it.

 

I had a poster of it hangin on my wall when I was a kid. Wasn`t there a dog sittin on the seat. I thuoght*****era was involved.

 

This monstrosity?

 

NO, not that one.
The Model A that*****era built.
Was yellow, with red accents.

I knew that would ruffel some feathers. The one*****era Built was cool. I tried to find the artcles but couldn`t. Stroh`s was spelled out on the gas tank. I thought I remembered seeing a Pic in the Hot Rod Show World Annuals.

 

Went to a swap meet today and bought soms magazines. The article is in Hot Rod October 83--page 87-89. It says it was given away at the Hot Rod Magazines Super NationalsIt`s yellow with red scallops and a red frame. AND a long legged ,good lookin blonde sittin in it. NOT A DOG.

 

After seeing how low Stroh's set the bar with the "Can Car". I'd have to see it.

 

Looks like a Red-Neck belly tank!

 

Gawd!!!!! To hell with "don't drink and drive", it should be "don't drink and build a car"!!

 

9 months late, but here it is.

 

That's pretty damn cool.
Gal sitting in it isn't too shabby either.
