Quoted below from link above...

"Jeff Beck, S&C Ford, San Francisco, 1968

(Beck) asked me if I knew where he could buy an American hot rod so I took him to the showroom of a car dealer who had one which was for sale. Jeff was immediately fascinated with the car and decided to buy it on the spot. I photographed him writing a check to the dealership. I later heard the car never made it to the UK - something about shipping or permit issues."

Where is it and did it ever get belts on the twin McCullochs?

 

That sure looks like Dick Patterson's coupe!
(I don't know who the guitar player is.)

 

It is, the musician is Jeff Beck and he did purchase it...Early start in Hamb timeframe...1965 with other notible Rockers

 

I don't remember any of the names of the musicians of that time. I recall some of the bands. But I was there?

 

...it was said this Hotrod wore many guises/faces and apparently this was a winter ritual to remove the body and add some attachments...Hotrod snowmover...anyone who hand bombs the snow would understand...I have the luxury of a snowblower and I wouldn't have but they were different times.

 

...Beats a VW 40 eh...

Now if this was a survivor I'd say the VW kit would've been inspired by it...

Those early "corn binders" have such nice lines. As a kid in the early to mid-60s, my uncle had one like this 37' and I always salivated over it even in purely stock form.
