    The Curly West coupe from Matamata - New Zealand.
    Back in the 1980’s it was my favourite ‘32 (as shown in the bottom photo) - looked just perfect to me !
    I believe that it is now red and fenderless.
    Thanks for posting.

    Bought Curly’s coupe from Dave Best about 1980, unchanneled it, chopped it and it came up pretty good.

    You are right, I redid it red about ‘86, subsequent owners stripped guards and wheels, but I have to admit I really dig it as current owner Bruce Erickson has it can’t be faulted!

    Thanks !
    As an 18 year old teenager, if I had known what was involved, I would not have started.
    Happy with the end result, and just recently got it certified here.
