Nice!!!!!
He has something to be proud of for sure. I can also tell he has a ton of money in it too I bet. But hey, can't take it with us can we?

yes, he is very proud. he does have a lot of money in it, but not as much as you might think. This is one car that has truly been built not bought. He has done everything himself, from the frame on up (except the glass).

That's a NICE 5 window. Here's a buddy of mine's 32 Coupe...
He basically built it to be an exact replica of the one in American Graphitti.

It is rare to see a non-chopped street rod nowadays (its not chopped right?)...NICE!!
Tim, that car is sweet too. If you guys go to the GD forum and find the thread with the hemi-powered retro rat rod coupe on video...now THAT is one of my three dream cars.
