Another "black glass" paint job. Rocco's '37 Ford Coupe is lowered & is running a 302 Chevy & a 9" Ford rear end powering some real wire wheels. Look at how small the engine compartment is... I don't know how he got the 302 in there. Maybe he assembled it in the car?

Good job, Frank. Black cars are really hard to capture well.

I was amazaed at the number of '37 Fords still running until I discovered that most of them are fiberglass kit cars. They're really classic looking.

Nice car Frank, Maybe He built the car around the engine? :lol:
You mean He has an honest "DZ" coded 302 in there? Dont tell those guys with the 69 Z28's. They'll have a fit! ;)

I just love those "big wing" fenders! Cars had a lot more character then! Now I look at a Chevy & Ford parked on the street & can't see much difference between them! :( I suppose that some of that is an attempt to get the aerodynamics clean to reduce gas mileage, but I can see a time coming when the Big 3 are all getting their bodies from the same supplier in order to reduce costs! :D Won't that be fun? A few years later people will get $250,000 for an '02 MalibU 'cause it has "Classic personality"! :D:D:D

Thanks for the pic, Marie. That does remind me of the '50s! (Time to get out PS & fix it up?) ;-)
