Yes Rich,... that's Jays Car.... and the B/W Shot is Hotrod Donnies old 57..... No... Donnie sold the car to a Gentleman that attended our show.... the workmanship on that car is outstanding.Mr. Alan Breezie(sp?) now owns it but I heard his health was very bad.
Not sure where Hotrod Donnie is now. he moved to the Maritimes and have never heard from him.
He is a great guy.

Since I am up early and have 9 minutes and 43 sec. to burn.I will post some more FORD pics.

Jeff, Great Collection of Pics!   My absolute favorite is the all Black Custom with the OOO-OOO License Plates.

ME TOO! The comments I get on my car are split between "I love the dog dish hubcaps"  and "your car needs rims"! I probably have more money in the wheels,  tires, and hub caps than a set of a of custom wheels.

Glad to see this thread active in my absence .

The music is a little 'loud' for me, but else just a quintessential 1950s hotrod !

Only Deuce contender coming close to that imho is Fred Steele's roadster. those two cars come immediately to my mind, thinking about 32s.

As a matter of fact, our friend Jay knew Fred in person !


this old survivor still wears its original paint and even pinstriping from the 50s. I has been unaltered since. I believe it' still the same engine, upholstery,and cloth top.

Interesting, the black and silver 57 has all the Meteor trim, and the show card says it`s a Meteor, but it seems odd that they would have left off the Meteor grill, which is the most distinctive item on a Meteor. Unless it was actually going to be a drag car, and the Meteor grill was considered "too heavy".
