Was it a street machine?
Was it a street machine?
I think It was a body shell & frame with no engine or trans, that they brought home on a trailer. It was Dave Senior's car. His two sons helped him build it back in the 80's. Now the old man wanted to sell it so #2 son John bought it to keep it in the family. Several years ago #1 son Dave JR built a 39 Ford coupe with a 383 stroker engine. It's even nicer than the 37 Chevy. The next time he has it out I'll try to get some pix. I go back quite a ways with these guys. When Dave and John were kids, they went to the drags with us and took turns steering my gasser as it was being towed back up the return road.Originally Posted by kc7jty
