Hi Spider, I bought the blue '32 from a guy who had owned it for 50 years, it was his high school car in the late '50s in eastern Tennessee. It's got a 59AB, '39 trans, '48 brakes, and a '41 Columbia 2 speed rear.

The green '33 5W was last registered in El Toro, CA, in 1953, to a Marine who had been given the car by his father, the original owner, so the story goes. It's been in storage a long time and I'm in the process of getting it back on the road now. It still has the same '40 engine, '36 trans, '40 brakes that it's had since sometime prior to '53.






The black '34 3W was last registered in 1963 in N. Dakota. It was found and taken to California in the mid to late 1960s and remained there until about 10 years ago. I bought it from a collector in the northeast. It's mostly original and pretty untouched except for the engine, still a 21 stud, though.
