George Lange with his Bobby Alloway produced, 32 "handmade" Ford roadster!
There is a 6 page article on the roadster,page 44, of the Feb 2003 issue of Streetrodder Mag. if anyone is interested in further reading about the rod.
Conrats to Bobby, his staff, the Langes and all the others who were involved in producing such an awesome rod.

Nice car, I guess. Can't really tell with all that GLARE!!
Remember when hood hinges had springs that would hold up your hood for you? LOL.

I almost forgot to mention, the above photo, taken of AMBR, was shot by Tim Brown.
The following photos I will share are shots that my friend Mike Bishop, AV8, took while at the show.
This 35 was produced by Tucci and is called "Cyprus. After viewing all the "contenders", this would have been my choice. I have fallen head over heels in love and hope the good folks at Tucci will grace us with viewing pleasure of this rod next month.

Who built the orange Coast to Coast style (Ford?) with the '39 Chevy grille? Anybody know?
I had this very same idea about 2 years ago so I contacted Tony @ C to C, we kicked the idea around, I laid some lines down, e-mailed 'em...long story short he got back with me and said No, there wasn't any chance of this happening...
Just curious if somebody went through him and took our idea..

Denise, thanks for putting up all the pics...especialy the one of our 35 Roadster from Tucci Engineering! Glad you like it! It's a little dissapointing not being the "Most Beautiful" but for me, just having a car there is good enough for a first time (for me). I can tell you that the amount of time, money, and commitment that goes into a car of this detail borders on ridiculous. I don't know how many 22 hour days we had in it to get it done in time. But after that car (my first of this caliber) I have a new found respect for "Show Cars" that I missed before. And one other thing that I and I'm sure mmost others don't think about it that the display for this show took a week itself to build! You will be seeing it in the mags soon, as Street Rodder did a feature in Vegas at the SEMA show, and Buckaro did a shoot in Cali this past week. If it doesn't get sold before Syracuse, then I'm sure you'll get to see it up close in our display. Thanks for the pics!! Mark.

Please, keep restoring those cars to stock... So that someday my grandkids will still know what it feels like to cut one up and build a hot rod!

Mark, love the pixs - on that Red 35 convert, did you see what provisions were made to get at the rear tire if needed? It sure looks nice that way, were there skirts that don't show in the photo or is the fender solid? I'm curious how it was done. Thanks.
