Featured Projects Uncle Jim’s 32

WOW!! That puts “survivor” in a whole new perspective. Totally bitchin’!
Welcome from East 10-UH-C. ( I had to look up Monroe on the map.)

 

The rears are General Silent grip 7.00-16 ,the fronts are Atlas Grip safe 6.00-16

 

great story and great car!

 

Your roadster is an example of what was really around back then. Not everyone could afford a shiny black paint job and tuck and roll upholstery. I was born in 1940, and when I was in high school, 1955-1958 the cars that teen-agers had, if they were painted at all, it was usually an earl Schieb paint job, the $ 29.95 special.

 

Great Hot Rod!!

 

Cool car, great story and bless uncle Jim. Great to know it survived all those years. You have done a great job getting it back on the road.

 

Thanks! Except for what I’ve done most of the car is the same as it was in 1952. Same clutch and all! It was channeled and firewall was modified and so was the frame. The front axle has been moved forward and frame cut off. It’s 112”wheelbase. Vs106 stock.

 

Man what a hotrod! Congratulations
