This will confuse you...hotrod or notrod...
These pics are of a car my brother bob is working on with his friend Ken in Clovis New Mexico.
So the question is....Hotrod...or Notrod....
#1. It is a 32
#2. it is pre 1948
#3. it is faster then with original motor.
the frame, running boards, steering, front end, radiator, and fire wall are from a 1932 chevy.
the engine, transmission, and rear end are out of a 1995 chevy S10, computer/fuel injected. originally had a flathead in it.
The body is styled after a 1929 panel truck.
the headlights are hand spun aluminum.
The owner, Ken, has already won 2 shows with it, I'm not sure what catagory.
It's titled through the state of New Mexico, as a "2009 HOMEMADE"...not homebuilt, but homemade. they had special chevy emblems made for it that say "homemade" in the center.
I know it wasnt really made for speed, or to be a "hotrod" but I think it's pretty nice.

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
