I stopped by a friend's auto body and collision shop yesterday and this was on one the racks, anybody have an idea of what this is? Since I'm rather short and I wasn't about to climb up on the rack the pictures are not the best.Attachment 63582Attachment 63583Attachment 63584Attachment 63585Attachment 63586

Somebody's home made speedster, looks like mostly Ford components. Just a quick short list; post war 8ba flathead V8 or perhaps earlier 21 stud since I can't see a distributor, '35 wire wheels, '35-8 banjo steering wheel and probably matching column, '46-8 tail lights, fenders made from spare tire covers, '35-6 rear bumper........
Bob nailed it. It looks like a lot of parts from a 1935 Ford but it apparently ran or was readied for a Maine-to-Florida run in 2014. I always liked the 1935 wire wheels which were 16" as I recall.

The guy lying under the lift while the car was lowered has bigger cajones than I do.Quote:
