That thing looks like it's sitting 4 inches off the ground. Hope there isn't a lot of scraping on humped driveways or streets going on.....

To answer a few questions.  I didn't build this one.  haha.  I wish.  I am just obsessed with old school hotrods. =)   There is a guy that my husband and I know who lives in KS.  THis is all he does.  He builds them, drives them, and then sells them. 

Anyway, Here is a pic of the next one.




It has a 454 in it so it is nice and F A S T!   :-)

I don't like to have to "work" to drive a car.  Both of those look like work.

A few of them were Packards, the guy that owned them was friends with Jay Leno and has sold him cars. I always wanted to paint a car that Jay Leno ended up owning for some reason, but it never worked out. Jay offered 1M for an old caddy limo convertable and my friend turned it down.
