Whidbey Island has a really big car culture; surprisingly active.
That gold rodney hits a lot of the sweet spots; It's a '34, my favorite Henry, Hemi with unobtanium M/T valve covers; the beehive oil filter looks genuine vintage, and Poncho taillights in the splash pan are right on any rod. Interior appears to be genuine vintage too. Nice copy of the "Greer Black Prudhomme" air scoop, and the flipper hubcaps and rubber rake look period perfect. I wouldn't be surprised it that is a "known" car, in the sense that the folks at Rodders Journal could tell you a lot about it.
Nice rod.
