Gasser project is what I'd do.

I've seen worse cars brought back to be sweet rides...this one is listed as a parts car but...

Nice! Bet if you hang that front end back on...no one would really be sure if it was a asphalt curler or  not. LOL!!! Sleeper?

5-600 cars..wow, hasn't been squat going on around here. Both cars you posted are gorgeous.

The 40th annual Portland Transmission Spring Classic This Saturday, Beautiful weather mid 80s, there was probably around 500-600 cars and one lonely 57 Del Rio wagon and I thought I would throw this in a beautiful little 55 Bird. The majority of cars were 30s and 40s.

Gary Coe had his new 57 Gunfighter on display at the show.

I built this 9" center for my Raunch Wagon with a new Richmond 3.89 gear.  I wanted more so I built a 4.11 for it and this one has set in a bucket since.  New Timken bearings, new Richmond gear set, new aftermarket Daytona pinion support, new billet 1350 yoke, used Detroit Locker w/28 spline axles, and setup with shimmed pinion preload.  Maybe 150 miles on it.  Pickup in Adrian MI.  $650 OBO

I have messaged you a couple of times and havent heard back from you. I am very interested
in these traction bars. Are you willing to ship to California, 92320?

                                Thanks

Cool, I love to see your travels, I own a few sets as I went  to Viva Las Vegas from LA in the Wagon.

Im going to do Santa Maria Friday, Sat for the WKK show then cross the mountains to Tehachapi to Western Swingout at the end of the month.

taking one of my vintage cars on a 600 mls round trip as of tomorrow. I want to take along all of you guys who struggle to do. We are still always on the road, together!
