Some of my dad's projects / toys

[Hugger Z]

Here are some pics of my dad's cars. He is not one to sit still and keeps working on things. He just sold a 66' Chevelle project he was working on. But currently in the stable is a 1937 Chevy Sedan (chopped) that we built 20 years ago. And he just recently reacquired.

A 1956 El Camino. It was originally a wagon that he chopped the roof off of and converted into an El Camino. Hopefully that one will be at Woodward this year.

A 1937 Chevy Pick-up that we turned into an extended cab. You guys have seen that out on Woodward with us a few times now.

And a 1958 Chevy mild custom that he has been cruising with for a few years and is not putting up for sale if you know anyone interested.

Enjoy!

Thanks. The garage used to be a barn. I think we can cram up to 10 cars in there.

Thanks. He's a pretty good guy. Many of you have met him on Woodward. He is out here every year he can be.

Thanks, that was a lot of work. We used doorskins to stretch the body and then had to pie-cut the roof of the truck and add metal to make it all work. Set it on a S-10 chassis. I believe it has a 383 SBC in it at the moment. Been trying to convince him to try a LS motor, but thus far have been unsuccessful. :lol:

Yeah it is a nice mix. I gave him Zaino for christmas one year and that stuff just makes those base coat / clear coat paint jobs glow!

nice i love the shoe box the most

Would that be the 56? Yeah I am liking how that turned out. Hopefully that will be out for Woodward this year.

Yeah he originally bought that house for the garage. :lol:

Great collection. Your dad is a talented guy for sure.

Thanks Dave. Yeah he has got some skills. Hopefully I will learn them myself one day. Just takes time and projects with a little $$ to fund them.
