My Grandpa had the Pontiac Tempest version of that black Oldsmobile. Interesting car, it had transaxle in the rear, instead of a transmission and a "rope drive" instead of a driveline. His had a V8. I wanted that car. I didn't get it.
That chopped '32 on big 'n littles makes my heart skip a beat. I've always loved trad hotrods. And, hat one's got all the candy. Flathead wit 3 97's, Split wishbone front suspension. Red steelies with dogdish hubcaps. Suede black paint. Suhweet.
