Brad is a local hot rod legend around here. He is now 77 and in his own words "I have one build left in me, that 31 roadster. It's going to be channeled, full fendered, and flathead powered. I have all the parts for it, everything else is for sale." So today and tomorrow is going to be crazy at his place. I scooped up a couple goodies
T-bird wheel is going on the roadster to replace the mid sixties truck wheel I am currently using. Stacks of little books ( I grabbed a dozen or so) and a neat dome light that flaven picked out of the m***ive parts shelves that line the shop. Brad has tons of early Oldsmobile stuff including 2x4, 6x2 and 4x2 intakes with carbs. Mountains of carburetors, distributors, valve covers, offset wheels, old reversed wheels, boats, motors, doodlebugs, and I could keep going.
I see that his shelves are well stocked, plenty of good pickin'! I know he has More stuff, but what you showed is surely interesting. Can you imagine towing that boat with this?!
Maybe it's a good thing that I'm as far away from there as I am but man, I wish I could see all that up front and personal .
