Hot Rods Rides 49! Captions in italics are from the sender of the pic. |
I drove 60 miles out of the way to take this picture and I lost the other one. I saw this old barn last year coming back from bonneville, I thought it was only 5 miles out of the way. Paul From Wolf:

From Neppy on the Hamb:
My Galaxie is so far from finished I don't know if I should even
bother you with a pic of it. If you do want one, here it is after a 1300
mile trip from Oklahoma to Montana. Dirty and beaten but still goin strong.
It's a '66 with the original 352, Cruis-O-Matic, 3.00:1 gears and a shitty
paint job done some time ago. It vibrates at any speed around 70MPH (imagine
that for 3200 miles) so I have to drive conservatively until next week
when I finally take it to the driveline shop in Tulsa. I just rolled the
odometer over a few weeks ago. Now it's only got about 370 miles on it.
;-) I recently pulled all the trim off of it and need to buy a welder,
and learn how, to fill in all the holes. Eventually it'll have a nice mild
flake finish with subtle scallops ala 62buford, from the HAMB, photoshopping
it.
From Dominators:
The 32 belongs to my wife Mia and myself. It looks old school in gray primer but is all stainless and chrome underneath. It runs a 355 sbc disguised with early Cadillac top end stuff, a Currie pollished alum. 9" rear end, Joe Hunt Magneto, Polished Moroso elect. water pump, a hidden alternator hung off the rear end, Wilwood disc brakes all around, Ididit polished tilt column, chopped windshield, roll bar and cage work by Chick Brignolo and other assembly work by Parker Engineering. Next to be done is a 40 Ford dash and steering wheel, new upholstry and a spray job in green primer. Kind of would like one of those new chopped and raked windshields Rebel Rods is producing. From Russ DeBarr:
Hi Mart. Here,s My Pop at the Nostalgia Nationals earlier this year.Mot Thursday, free tax disc on Friday, go racing Sunday! well worth waiting 3 years for! I even managed a 15.9 with a standard 2.0ltr Pinto! shes now done over 4000miles and I,ve only had to replace the engine and re-engineer the rear end. All the best, Russ From Chris:
