In our neighborhood, 2 blocks down the hill was a gas station that (to me) all the cool car guys hung out there. 32 coupes, 33 & 34 Fords as well, a sweet 56 Ford Beach wagon that was setup gasser style. Also, many Corvettes / Camaros / Novas. And a Couple Barracudas and 1 Beautiful AMX, 1969 with a supercharger. I worked there on Saturdays and Sundays, Those guys would come in to use the lift to open the headers and once the group had assembled, they went for a cruise. They usually hit all the surrounding towns and if possible, someone would scratch up a race. They'd be gone most of the day and I knew when the cruise was over as they all came back to use the lift. 8-)
The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
