This one!  Been driving it 36 + years now, not got sick of it yet.  Turned out my teenage dream was on the money!

It may sound crazy, but I really love this one, built from scrounged bits and pieces in the mid-'50s:

It was built by a fellow named Harrison Miler who wrote about it in the August 1974 issue of Rod Action. He started with a Model A chassis, stepped in the rear, and running gear from a '39 Mercury. Grille was from a '35 Ford pickup, and the body was from a '26 Jordan Playboy  - a rusted mess pulled from a river bottom, but it was free! I should post the story; it's a very good read.

Might be tough to recreate in scale - that body and grille would have to be scratchbuilt for sure.

I own my dream Hot Rod (car) 1971 Ford Custom 500, 351CJ 4 speed.

This choice is DQ'd. Wrong era. Hot rods are all pre'49 in origin, no exceptions.

Did not see an "era" specified so then I would pick this as my other dream hot rod. Traditional, Y-block powered. None of the resto-mod changes, rubber band tires. or aero mirrors.

No period specified. Just what you consider your dream rod.
