I had a 240 Z with a 350 Chevy, and a 350 trans,it was a nice car to drive. Almost bolts in a easy swap and the 240 rear axel is strong enough if the engine isen't to hopped up and there isen't room for real big tires.
It got rear ended, broke my heart, I parted it out and got more for it that way than if I had sold it as a regular car.

3. 1931 Stainless Ford Tudor

Cars don't rust here in the desert but the paint fades fast. No paint on this baby.

It's a '36, like the one I grew up with, except Pop's was basic black.

Thank you Rex. A '31 Ford Tudor still had the Model "A" body?

According to this reference it is indeed a '36: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2008 ... teel-cars/

Even more definitive than that, a '31 Tudor by default was a Model A.

Be careful Roger. You remember those two girls who just wanted a ride to McDonald's?
You said, "I had my wallet stolen January 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th & 29th.
Also February 1st & 4th, Twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, 26th & 30th, three times last Monday and very likely again this upcoming weekend.
