V8Paul went to a lot of trouble to get these pictures of his AV8 through to me. Thanks for persevering, Paul.

Here's a picture of my 8 year project. Brookville body, 1938 21 stud, 
Thickston, pair of 94's, Mallory electronic, 6,000 miles in 2 years and only 
had 1 sparkplug go bad.      V8Paul

21studs, eh? Common over here, unusual for a Murrican. 

Seems odd to see a back panel without any lights set into it. 

Martin Anderson sent me a pic of his 23T.

Martin is heavily involved with the Swedish Street Rod Association. Thanks for the pic, Martin.

Received this snap from Carveth Morris.

Here is a picture of my 41 Chevrolet conv. shown stock here,but is in the process of being transformed into a street rod. if you are interested I will send pictures as it is completed.  Motor is a 1996 Corvette LT-I W/a700R4 trans. A GM 12Bolt posti traction narrowed rear end w/mosier axle's. Body will be customized The car had 33000 mi. on it when I got it. It only took me 21 years to get this car.  I have been told Its 1 of 8 left.  but it had a lot of rust  so I wanted something to drive at interstate speeds and to handle like a new one.
Dont forget the update shots, Carveth. Mart. 

Bill Groner sent me some shots of his pal's cars:

This is Joe's car.  It is a '32 Ford sedan with a 468 cu. in. Chevy. 
It has a 2" chop, 2" inch wider rear fenders four speed auto trans and 4:56 gears in a 9" ford rear. 
Car runs 10.98 @ 123 mph. Joe has had this car for about 12 years now. 
The sedan has a strip of checkers on the interior door panels as well as the dash rail.

 This is Ken Kool's '36 Ford Chicken Coupe. It has a 440 Mopar, '57 Olds rearend with 4:56 gears, runs on pump gas. 
Runs 10:90 in the quarter @ 122 mph.  Six point roll bar, single four barrel and a solid lifter cam. 
Nostalgia front to rear.  A sixties style GASSER.

Thanks, Bill. Note the similar times for the two cars? 
I am lead to understand there's more than a little "friendly" rivalry between the two.

Mike Bohn sent this shot of his '51 Booik Roadmaster.

Mikes running the straight 8 (for now, he says), Car has stock body, just lowered a tad.
Cool, Mike.
