Wierdo Watts managed to buy this AV8 truck out from under my nose. It used to belong to Brummie Mick, apparently, but I'm ashamed to say this truck was unknown to me. It looks like a real cool piece. 
Simon says it's just passed it's MOT test and will be back on the road real soon. 
He's gathering together a brace of '40's steels, wants to lose the spindly 18 inchers. Nice one, Simon.



Had a note from Vince Giuffre, who hails from Aurora,Colorado.

My 34 Ford 3 window coupe has a 7"chop, 97z block with a comp 262 roller and
AFR heads, 350 trany, 9"ford rearend with coil overs. Dropped front
axle, heat/air for comfort. The car is driven cross country every
summer-Indy-Hot August Nights etc, and gets 18mpg on the highway.
That roof looks a bit lower than mine, Vince, Can you actually see anything on those sight-seeing trips? Cool Car..Mart.



I think I'm losing my grip. I should have included this pic in the last rides update but missed it, 
It belongs to Bill Collins, and has a 327 eng, 350 tranny and corvette rear end, rides nice. 
Thanks for writing again, Bill.



I know it aint a hot rod, but what the hell, it's my site and I like it. No name on the e-mail but the pic was called 
Broccolihemi. So maybe the owners name is Broccoli and sure as eggs is eggs that Mutha ought to be packin a HEMI.



This is Chuck Hoppenrath's little red T Bucket. here's the spec:
1923 TBucket. 350 Chevy, 6-71 Blower, 225 H.P. N.O.S., 350 Turbo Trans, Ford 9"Rear End with 4:88 Gears.
Quite nippy then.


Phil Ennis sent this trio of Pics from Phoenix Arizona.

Glen's 27 T. No stranger to this site.

Aaron's 38. 

Lineup of Az cars. 
Turned out nice again.(English humour, has to be said with northern accent.)


Had these from Gunter. He's one crazy cat from Austria.

As bought, very 70's.

The delivery is now sporting this 50's style paintjob.

Gunter is now sporting this 50's throwback hair-do.



Ah yes. Jim Arnold. He captioned this himself. "Seen better legs on a table."


You've checked out Perry Kratchmer's Vintage site haven't you? Well this is his no nonsense (as in no interior) Deuce.


For some reason I thought this car belonged to Buddy George and when I write to him about it 
I bet he wondered what the hell I was going on about. (Sorry Buddy, Sorry Perry)


---oooOOOooo---
Thanks to all the contributers for the pics on this page...Mart.
