Sunning! I love everything about your hot rod from the V-12 to the dash, looks perfect to me. Great job! and congrats on the award.
just for the record I think this Hot rod Lincoln looks WAY better than "The" Hot Rod Lincoln of song fame!
Thanks Leon, I really appritiate it! I appritiate all the awesome comments you guys have been posting here. Thank you all very much!!!!
I seen this coupe at the Detroit Autorama, and these pictures dont show what you see up close and for your own eyes Very nice work
We saw this at Autorama also. Nice to see it finished. We liked it in bare metal but your color choice really sets it off. It looks real classy. We saw the motor and chassis at Gas Axe Garage this fall when the body was out for paint. The details and workmanship are top notch. Congrats on the trophy and make room for more in the future!
Just wanted to say thanks to all the guys that put on the Sins of Steel show yesterday!!! Awesome show, can't wait till next year! I am honored (and i think still in shock) with the best of show honors. Thank-you All!!!!!!!!
Saw that car at Beatersville, had to keep going back and looking it over. Outstanding car and workmanship. Never a fan of green cars but that one just might change my mind. Dave
Yours is one of the 4 best "A" coupes I have seen in the last 10 years. The others being the green grenade, Bass's Coupe and the black one there at Sins of Steel (ans was also) and the Autorama. Beautiful cars. You totally deserved the award. Lots of nice rides there but your was the best. Extra points for a a great, traditional, original paint job, and a unique vintage engine choice. The interior was amazing too! Well done man. Just curious - how's it drive??? I have often wondered about how the old V12 engines are to drive... Have any video posted so we can hear it purr?
As I said before this is a great car IMO. My fav at the Autorama. If you don't know. In this months Street Rodder mag. it has been picked as 1 of the top 100 for 2012. Congrats man, well done.

Once the car was finished my friends suggested that I take it to a few shows. I gotta say I was pleasently surprised by the outcome!! I never thought this would happen. I really what to thank everyone that help with the build. Mike Boerma from the Gas Axe Garage, Ted Agular for paint and Nick Hardy for Upholstery as well as everone else that helped out. I also would like to thank everyone who worked at putting on all the great shows this year!! I had a Riot! Thanks everyone!!!!!
Fell in love with this car when i got the Street Rodder Magazine. Must say it is probably my favorite car that Ive seen in the magazine. Love the interior and dash they look good and the v12 is just awesome. great job
As I've said before, what a great car, was my favorite at autorama last year, and I still think it's great. Congrats.
You should have a copy of "Hot Rod Lincoln" by Charlie Ryan, if you don't already. He wrote the song about his personal car.
