Looks like a early sears tables saw car. It is upside down right now, must be getting that single narrow serated blade (uhh I mean wheel fixed). (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
No really where is the car? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) |

I see it now, but no idea what it is, early 20-30s looks like the start of a streeet rod project.

You're nuts, dude. You can't see anything in that picture. Get all the crap off of whatever's there and then take the picture. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dead horse.gif) |

I doubt I can do that. I've not pissed him off, but someone got him up to a slow burn long ago, and he hasn't calmed down yet. I've been working on him though, I think another couple months, I can ask him what he has got.

Will be interesting to find out the history. The tires are definitely newer than the body, so someone has done some work on it at one point.

Dude. Here in guyland, we just ask. Girls are the ones who tiptoe and play politics. Try this; Call him up. Say, "Hey. How's the wife and kids? Oh. And by the way, what kind of car is that sitting in your garage." If he gets butt-hurt over a conversation like that, then it's not worth knowing. |

The bodywork you see in the red circle is from an earlier vintage than the more modern-sized tire you can see below it. I would bet the car originally had larger diameter spoked wheels. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-2-1143246684.jpg) |
