Nice. Like those 'old school' Vette valve covers. Surely aftermarket? Not the OLD staggered bolt pattern heads?

Bob,

Sent your post to my father, 77 years young, who grew up in SF modifying Fords...I'd lock the doors if I were you

If you're an old fart for owning that then I wanna be too. l Where do I sign up? That rod rocks.

I'll probably get flamed for saying so, but I'd give up my 911 in a heartbeat to own that.

Very nice 35, your going to wear out 8 california dusters a year on that one. If I could find out who owns this one I might try to buy it.

That is sweet, and pretty rare. We were just talking about a sedan delivery. I think the door looks a little shorter than mine, but the wheelbase might be the same ? do you have a picture of the back ?

Dust ?? A Cal Duster was included with the 35
I'm going to try to just keep it moving all the time so the dust won't have time to land on it.

Yep... probably a Cali car all it's life by the lack of rust. We put it up on a lift and the under side is clean. I think it would have had a bigger Cal. plate originally...maybe yellow ?

Wow ...a 283??? That is old school in itself. It looks so fresh (paint, interior, etc.). Glad to see an old rod with an early mill!
