heres a picture i took today at my friends garage...i thought it was kinda cool so i figured id share
try holding the*****on down halfway and give it time to focus. My 2c Nice looking shop. Which one's yours?
I rented a house with a great garage once. You could pull the car in, drive it around and go back out the same door without backing up. It even had a pit and engine hoist built in. Was working on buying it but the owner's kid got kicked out of the army for selling drugs so he gave it to him. The little******'s in jail now for selling drugs again but the house is in his name and the old guy died. Someday...
yeah i just got this camera..im still trying to figure it out...had to turn the flash off to get it to not be real dark..and when i did that it got fuzzy...oh well....
my car is not done yet...i was actually there to look at a few things on his A for ideas on mine...and i wanted to see how he got the 39 so low since im getting the frame for my 37 next weekend so i can work on that when i get frutrated with my A...looks like just dropped axle, c-notch, and reverse eye springs..he said its a rough ride and hes gona paint it cause women always say his car is "cute"...that thing is one of my favorite cars of all time...not that many full kustom coupes here in central PA that i know of..espeically with all the old parts still underneath and a full house flathead under the hood
Kustomkoupe, tell your friend I like that blue ford, that is nice. There are some nice kustoms here in PA they just hide well . later plmczy
yeah that flat baby blue is nice..it has a 53 chevy grill in it with as many teeth as you can fit...its a 49...and he said he never drove it yet..just built it...hes got a nice gloss black one thats done and a 51 victoria? thats in progress
tommy, i know what your saying...thats probably one of my favorite cars of all time...its nothing real special..but theres just something about it...the first time i ever went there all i knew he had was the roadster...can you imagine my eyes when he opened the door to the chopped 39 and the 49 merc sitting side by side...plus that blue 49..theres a 54 chevy...custom 62 impala 57chevy...chopped chevy truck and 2 restored big cars from the 30's...i donlt know exactly what the stockers are because my eyes keep turning to that 39...thats the inspiration for my 37 that im going to build as soon as my A is done
[ QUOTE ] all the others came out blurry for some reason...i think it may have been the lighting or something [/ QUOTE ] ...this happens too me as well, then I have a beer and it all goes away.
Are the drip rails shaved on that 39? I'm working on a 39 Buick and been thinking about getting rid of the drip rails. I probably should leave them,, The buick has a big dome top... Jdee
yeah they are shaved off...im gona shave them off my 37 too...just make sure you have a seal for rain...i guess thats not as much of a problem as it is in pa...but still think about it...good luck
