The wife has cranked up her Christmas playlist on Spotify and this pic came up. It’s a pic of Brian Setzer in front of a Caddy powered 32. Just curious if this is one of Brian’s cars or a photo of using a Hamber’s car? Either way, it’s pretty cool. Sorry about the quality, it’s a pic of my TV.
Yeah, I have seen that one. If memory serves, he helped build it. I saw another pic of it on the web. Looks like he may own it. I still bet a hamber built it.
Remember that car from Hop Up. It belonged to Tim Thompson when it was shown in 2009 at the Chicago World of Wheels. Not sure if Tim was/is a member here. ***uming Brian Setzer bought it from him. The flamed coupe was for sale on Ebay several years back and this coupe will be for sale at BJ Scottsdale 2022. Looks like it was originally built by Iona Hot Rod Shop. Edit: Sold at Me*** 2012. https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/BRIAN-SETZERS-1932-FORD-CUSTOM-COUPE-251689 CWOW 2009
The Caddy itself looks like an early one, well earlier than 60. Still have the beehive filter. Wow, it says it is 414 CID out of a 365. I'd be curious how they did that.
