    Did it start as a Teardrop trailer? Which way does it go?

    I like my women same as I like my hot rods.
    Unpretentious, unsophisticated and dirty.

    That's an admirable, very unique start of a way out Hotrod and a great find Anthony...

    It uniquely has towbar mounts in place of the original trailer frame and hitch...and looks to have quads for plenty of lighting as it glides through the air with the grace of a brick...the steering wheel is a great choice as well...kinda cosmic...:D

    1931 Franklin made a little lighter it seems...and that alone makes them faster...who knows what is under the hood...solid side hood panels seem kinda unique as well...not much history or info on it...ain't cheap either...

    Lower it, screen it in -- and use it to scrape up golf balls out at the range.

    Someone spent a lot of time on that. It at least deserves to be dragged out of the weeds for a better look. Part of the plan must have been to protect the grill.

    Respect for all the hands on rodders here.. I'm just an enthusiast. As the late Baskerville often said, he appreciated " bitsa" cars, bits of this, bits of that. This one certainly fits the thread, the "Barbecue Stovebolt Special", which was a HAMB thread a few years ago, featured in first issue of " Honk"....it was up for auction 2015, where is it today?

    This is in a trending Thread...a newly acquired late 50s, early 60s Hotrod that evolved into strip racing and has found it's way back to street duty...it has certainly had some changes through the years the body itself has been smoothed in a major way somewhere in that history...I look forward to the story coming together...hope it has a passenger door...Have fun with it Hamber...;)
