This one i built 10 years ago. my son was just going to ask me for its use to take his girl to the prom a week before He was killed in an auto accident.I'd give 5 of these and build them to boot, for one more day just to set and talk to , and look at him

Welcome BOB: I'm over in Garden City,MI 48135 area. We have 6 or 7 old guys running around in "T" buckets and helping each other out.
Welcome aboard Bob
From anutter ole gearhead:cool:
second owner from new!A man bought it for his daughter for a graduation present in 1932 up, and over,on the east side of michigan. She kept it a year and it was bought and taken across the mackanaw bridge in 33 or 34. I became the second i like to say, because the girl didn't want it.So it sat in a garage on a main highway that was close to the road. I managed to see the car inside,I worked 20 some years on this guy til he sold it to me.It was a 50s flathead with a lot of parts from a 50 merc. i chopped it myself, painted it myself built the engine, filled the roof. Its really a great kar has a lot of awards but now i wish i had painted it black.24 years ago.Quote:
