Hello, I have been around cars all of my life and I have a 1937 Lasalle Coupe that was first hot rodded in the 50's and I put it back on the road 16 years ago with a couple of more modifications. I also have a 1961 Austin Healey "Bugeye" Sprite that was raced in California in the early 60's and I got it as a barn find here in Michigan and put it back on the road almost 2 years ago with all of it's patina. Thanks for the hours of enjoyment prior to signing up. I will post pic's as soon as I figure it out.

More Pic's. The Lasalle has a 500 Caddy motor with the orginal 50's tuck and roll int. It has it's issues but I think it's cool, also the painting on the glovebox is from 1960.
Very nice rides! Always good to see more metro Detroit rodders...you'll have to bring the Lasalle up to Continental lanes on Summer Friday Nights.
Yes, they are Gulf colors. The light blue is the original color and the orange was added @62 when it was raced in California. Welcome and I have seen your car around and it always grabs my eye.
Thanks for all of the warm welcomes. I had them both out this weekend with the great weather we had here.
