 Captions in italics are from the sender of the pic.


Mart, Here's a shot of my T. I built the entire car myself, Even painted
it. Its a 305sbc. With a offenhauser 3x2 set up. It's a low budget ride, 
with about $4400 into it.

Hi Mart, Andrew Cooke here from Belfast. I seen on the hamb you are getting on well with old rusty. Here is my minor would be nice to see her on your site .My next project is a very rusty 1950 Chevy going to be trad kustom . Keep her lit. Cookie . 


Hey Mart, You've got a pretty cool site here, lots of good stuff. They call me Roadkill Mike, and I am a Rumbler (Albuquerque chapter). Check out our site at http://rumblersabq.com . I also attached a pic of me burning out in Viva Las Vegas 5 Rockabilly Weekender. 
Take it easy, -Mike




From "Just kampers" here's a few of the Vultures rides. (UK).



Kim from Copenhagen sent this cool pic of Mad's Nimbus. Dig that 4 into 1 pea shooter.



From a few years back, here's Lance Nicoll's cool little A roadster.
He writes:
Hi Mart....These are some photos of my 30 Model 'A' ..It was built on a model A chassis with steel covers to make it look like 32 rails..My Rod was never a car at all, It started from 3inches of left over firewall and cowl sides only ( no Bottoms, left) that formed the edge of the recessed firewall. Most of what you see was made...Lance.




Lance also sent these really nice shot's of Rod Brown's early Ford gold.

Look and weep, fellas.



From Martin Custaloe:
Hi i live in Chilliwack BC Canada and my son and i are starting to build a 30 5 window ford. It was a rod in the 60's(maybe earlier) last time registered was 1969. You can still see the lead filling from the original chop.




Hi Mart, I was please to see your 31 on Duece rails, as I am building a similar car 
and feel that this is a much overlooked,GREAT looking combo.  I for one would 
rather have a real, made in 1931 roadster than a repo in fiberglass or steel 
for that matter.
  Your car gave me hope for mine as it is just as rough as yours was!
Here's a shot of the car at present.
