SEE AND BE SCENE (DRIP PAN)

This-here is where we run pics of iron that we get in the mail or by e mail. You know, kind of a ‘Reader’s Rides’ thing or “See and be scene”. In fact, we’ll kinda call this “See and Be Scene” !! So if you got a project or some iron you had for a long time or whatever, e mail us a look at it and hell, you too could be Fairly-Famous with 18 other really bitchin guys.

BRUCE JOHNSON’S VERT IS THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG

Actually, they do have icebergs in Mnpls. this time of year…but we talked at length with BJ at GNRS and he said he’d got this one running. Whoa, Daddy. And with a Columbia…I love it.

AND ANOTHER PRICINCT IN MINNESOTA IS HEARD FROM….

“Mark, here are a couple of pic’s of my 36. I found it about five years ago in a barn in northern Minnesota. The “old” guy had almost 40 cars he was selling off and was down to 12 when I heard about it. The 36 was one of his first cars in the collection and was “restored” in 1968. He didn’t want to sell it but when I told him I lived in Vancouver, Wa. he said he would because he and his wife were married in Vancouver and it was almost like going home. It sat in my shop for a couple of years while I collected parts to hot rod it. I left the paint (it took awhile to get the years of dirt off) and interior intact and added carpets and installed the parts needed to make it a nice driver. Hope you like it….

UNCLE DANIEL IS HEARD FROM IN MASS

Alex Finnigan roped in this remarkably original coupay that had no engine in it, did the righteous thing and put his warmed-up flattie in it and off we go.
