This was originally a coupe, but the body disappeared some time over the past several decades. Sitting on a ranch not far from me, luck got me to be the first one to see it, and I got it for hauling it off the property. I've been playing around with the mechanisms, got the wheels to turn, explored the engine a little, etc. It might be possible to get it running without spending a lot of dough on it...and then it maybe could become a speedster or something fun.

I know, but I have several hot rods already. I can leave some things alone, and enjoy the slow ride.

heh...it's neat to read what other guys would do with this car. Not quite what I have in mind, though.

that is incredible.
maybe find one of these:
In 1930, a four-cylinder 151 cu in (2.47 l) Miller engine installed in a race car set a new international land speed record of 144.895 mph (233.186 km/h). Miller developed this engine into a twin overhead cam, four-cylinder, four-valve-per-cylinder 220 cu in (3.6 l) racing engine. This would be used in midgets and sprints into the 1960s,[2]Last edited by Barry Donovan; July 3, 2016, 08:13 PM.Previously boxer3main
