[RussMS]

Other than the Quadraduece, Has anyone seen a 1930s style vehicle modified in a Pro-Touring style?

I've always wanted to build a road-race 39 Chevy Coupe (http://derek69ss.tripod.com/Car_Art/39_Coupe_2/39_coupe_2.html)... I just have to get through the other 5 project cars I have right now :rolleyes:

Ever heard of the "Prowler"? The "Red Line Oil" car that competed for the riddler a couple years ago is suppose to have a Indy style suspension under it. Some of Steve Moal's creations might qualify if they ever got driven. I have been contemplating one myself.

I know a guy who is about 60% through with a 1939 Ford Coupe that is looking to let it go. Custom frame, Ls1, Ford 9" rear. Looks like an good candidate for Pro touring. He wants a bit too much I think.

But It gave me some good ideas.

We did a 37 Ford Woody w/vette front and rear on ariride with a all roller small block! Not a full on PT car....kinda of a mix between PT and show car i guess you would say!

I have plans to build something late twenties, and have been slowly building a pile of parts for it. At first I was planning on the full-tilt street rod show car look with great all-around performance, but lately I have been leaning more towards the rat rod theme. That way the focus can be centered more on performance at all costs.

The problem is I have sooo many irons in the fire.

The Redline Oil car was built by Leonard Lopez of Dominator in Brentwood CA.
Here's a good article on another high performance rod.
