Cool! Thanks.

1938 BUGATTI TYPE 57SC

This is one of the most recognisable Bugattis ever, thanks in no small part to its curvaceous front fenders and rear split window. The Type 57SC’s supercharged engine pumped out an impressive 200bhp, making it one of the quickest cars of the era.

1937 TALBOT LAGO T150 SS FIGONI & FALASCHI TEARDROP COUPE

Many cars were influenced by the Art Deco movement during the 1930s, but the T150 SS was arguably the best looking – it’s essential a rolling work of art.

Look too much like Mexican low-riders.

How do they get past speed bumps?

Ford had it going on in the late ‘30’s. Their front end styling was so much prettier than just about anything else, it’s aged very well.

They’re “bagged.” Just hit the switch for the air compressor and raise them.

Here are some plastic model car kits of '37 Fords and Chevies

Sorry, but I much prefer the old American cars and trucks. And not just out of patriotism or loyalty, but styling. They may have been 'simpler', but, IMO, still cooler.

I think Ford had it going on since day one, with the Model T, then A, then '32.

I’m getting ready to build some trucks. Got four 47-54 chevy trucks sitting in the yard and an S-10 frame ready to accept truck #1. While I tend to like shiny trucks, it’s a ton of labor and good paint isn’t cheap. Lucky for me, “patina” is in right now. Still have to make a nice interior, nice under the hood and nice bed floor(and nice rims/tires of course) but not the exterior. Huge time saver.

I live in the Ozarks where the only jobs are saw mill, fast food or old folks home so I’m going self employed.

Truck #1 will be getting the TBI 4.3 liter from the donor S-10 but future trucks will get a V8. Plan to work my way up to putting a 4.8/5.3/6.0 in them, along with the computer. 20mpg and will haul butt.

Love ‘em!!! I’m in love with the entire decade of 1930s American vehicles!!!!! Keep pestering hubby to either buy one or buy a kit car. At this point, I’ll settle for either one.

Of the cars I posted, the style of customizing I like the least would be those in my post 22. A little 'over the top' and too far removed from the original, IMO.

Don’t like them lowered

If you don’t know - you are too young to be looking at Car Porn.
