    Great site!!
    Boy talk about giving ideas on styles these are killers.
    I went to the coupe section too and couldn't believe some of the ideas.
    It's funny what they used to call a streetrod back then.
    To them its simply a car that was rodded and put onto the street instead of the salts. http://www.g***ermadness.com/norms/Coupe-Sedan/index.html

    Cool car here....

    Sweet site!!

    I missed this the first time around.

    But the "California Muffler Roadster" is a 30-31 roadster on duece rails...

    I should know.

    Robert,

    It's fine with me (and it was a year ago too)...

    That 34 Potvin coupe is one of my favorite Hot Rods ever. Not much out there about it either other than a feature in Hot Rod circa 49...

    Your dad musta stepped up $ wise, cuz when Ron Weeks had it, She was no slouch period, It was a $'s up deal then, Jake,Tom Senter (Ardun White Pages),Hugh Teitsworth,Bud Bryan(Rod & Custom) & Ron Drove these flatty powered puppies across this great nation to the 71 Nats in Memphis.
    Gears swaps were done & generators were disconnected(over charging) as well as getting chased out of front yards in New Mexico while getting shut eye.
    I saw a picture of it with an Ardun in it sometime in the mid 70's, Did you dad own it then?:cool:
     
  8. This has gotta be one of the best posts I`ve seen in a long time....big thanks to everyone who has posted............any more? :)

    Actually these are all 31's on duece rails rather than '32s'...

    I got a bit more time to go through some of these.....again, not roadsters but worth a look!

    The 32 3w, IMHO, is quite possibly the most beautiful hotrod I've ever seen!!! Well, at least from the rear!

    The other one is just NUTS! Look at that thing! Says he was killed in it......
