beat me to it,

 

i've had the pleasure of seeing that car in person and i must say it is insane. such a cool car. the second i saw that article i thought "that's the same car"! too cool.

 

That is one of the best looking coupes I have ever seen.

 

That is BAD****!! Nice car!! John

 

Wow! That car is awesome! I've seen pictures before, but never the details.

 

Jeff thanks for the compliments on the car. It is the same old 283 and 39 trans(although the cluster gear and first reverse slider has changed a few times). I have wanted the car since I was 9 years old. I bought it 2 years ago took it apart and painted it. It is the most fun to drive of all my cars and my 5 year old son thinks the same,love that scream of the motor and shifting that chrome 39 shift handle while lookin out that chopped windshield just cant get that felling drivin modern*****.

 

Here is the interior this is a couple years old. The dash no longer has flames just glossy black.

 

Nice car. The original post only took 13 minutes to get an answer, I always enjoy these HAMB questions.

 

I think Jeff did get his happy ending, his keyboard just shorted out due to the drewl... Ha Ha Ha...

That is a amazing hot car....

 

Thanks Jeff for posting that article. I have heard about that article but never read it.

 

Just beautiful....and great article..thanks for posting Jeff.

 

damn...

 

Wow...that's a really kool coupe!! It once again proves that full fendered cars can be just as awesome as fenderless ones

 

So...you're thinking about fenders...?

 

Cool story Jeff.

 

Well as for just plane old 'Inspiration' itself I know where that went a long time ago. As the keys and dollar bills slipped from my hand and that last project was driven away by a stranger so to did my inspiration. I survive now only by a healthy dose of the H.A.M.B.

Doc.

 

Oh.....yeah............ "AYE"!

 

Excellent Idea Dave : A 'hot rod' post without politics and bashing ! What a novel idea....


AYE

 

Not to Hijack the thread but this is a R&C cover form 1968. I know 3 of these cars are still in San Diego and they are still on the road.
