Nothing like a 3 pedal roadster pickup with a dual quad Chrysler hemi on skinny tires with chrome wheels and spiders.
Found these at the local lake bar today. Beach Bar, Clark Lake, MI. Old school joint. My grandpa used to tip um in here. They actually have the stern of my first Chris Craft hanging on wall....
Put this in the vintage truck thread too.... The guy was actually doing the moonwalk because he looked over and saw me taking a Pic of his truck, lol. Trying to get out of the picture....
Well the burgfest car show I was talking about was kinda on the lame side this year. Late models, restos, and resto mods for the most part. Honestly glad I changed my mind at last minute about entering the 53. But these two were decent. Model a coupe turned roadster honestly does dip into the rat rod category. But honestly it was well enough done it it wouldn't be hard to turn it into a decent traditional rod. Like ditch the tractor grill and put a better air filter assembly. 54 was an extremely well executed build.
I could just picture this 61with a 401 hp 390 FE. It did have a stock 3 speed as 4-speeds in a Ford came in 1962.
