I love that !! i wonder if they can actually tow with it?
And i gotta wonder what the big tank on the side is for?

It is on air bags. The bottle looks to be propane. Or maybe it is his air source.

Here's a few more pics of it. He tows the car to car shows as part of his display.

The grills are "Pines Winter Front" grills. They were an accessory grill that had slats that opened and closed instead of regular grill bars so your car would run warm in the winter. Grills for some other years and makes, can be had at a reasonable price but the 32 Ford grills bring big coin now days.

The headlights were made by Electroline and were used on, among other things, fire trucks. Also rare and bring big bucks in todays market.

Hope that helps 59Imp.

I thought this was nicely done also, cool 4 banger powered modified.
He is running a late model Ford (I believe) 4 banger, with a 5 speed.
15" front, 18" back with Coker dirt tires. '22
