Video Description:
Over the course of the last year Matt became friendly with a gentleman in Denver, Co that has one of the craziest Olds Rocket collection we have ever seen. Lonnie started building a 1930/31 Ford Model A Roadster that was powered by an Olds 324 in the mid 1970s and continued to change and upgrade the roadster from a mild 324 to a blown 394 with 8 Strombergs. Matt purchased a set of Weiand valve covers from Lonnie, and was working on purchasing a few more parts to upgrade the Schroll car when Lonnie’s health unfortunately declined and he passed away. Lonnie’s son and good friend reached out to Matt a few months ago about buying the few parts Lonnie set aside for him and Matt worked out a deal for all the left over parts! Lonnie kept just about every part he pulled off the Roadster, including a spare engine with a 471 blower! Lonnie’s Wife and Son also sit down to talk about Lonnie’s hot rod and obsession with Olds Rockets!!!
