I don't see anything about "bread" on that race car...!!! Shirley, you must mean "race-bred"...??? Bred meaning reproducing... R-
i found that an odd comment form speacial ed as well....not real meaning it wasnt cut or hacked up into what it is now, it never was what it apears to be. hand fabricated.
I think that Nash Ambassadors have some Kustom potential in em somewhere. It'd be pretty easy for things to go awry with one though, got some pretty funky dimensions. Maybe with a Hudson Hornet-esque roofline.....
A comment about the "Nash" comments. When I was a kid, we used to drive past an old farmhouse with two "Nash Statesmans" sitting in the front yard. Back then I thought they were awful looking cars, now I would love to have one! I dig the full-skirted style, the oval grill and some of them with the tail lights incorporated into the trunk trim/handle. Oh well... tastes change!
Wow. Why would someone take a race CAR to a CAR show? I mean its not like hot rodding has its roots in racing or anything. to keep things on topic,, I'd love to work over a bathtub Nash. I can see it in my head and trust me,, its badass!!!
and as for the willy's thise two in the UK a friggn dead on! that pale yellow with the chrome steelies is so sexy! all that needs is a set of 37 desoto bumpers or at least chromed and it would be in business I think I remember seeing some footage of Indian Larrys shop on a biker buildoff or something and there was a dude driving a seriously lowered red willy's with white walls all tail draggin, did any one else see that or am I making it up?
I have always wanted to build one of these carryalls. Put a 40's truck front end on it and extend the running boards to some smooth rear fenders. Make it low. Maybe i need to stop drinking the bong water.
Here is an odd custom that is turning out quite well 1951 Kaiser http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=272171&highlight=51+kaiser
Yea HARMS WAY they sure are ugly old cars ,thats what separates them from the belly button cars. I felt sorry for mine when I first saw it and considered it a challenge to customize it. So- WHAT DO YOU DRIVE? Lets see a picture, I am guessing a Mustang or a Camaro.LOL.
