Fellas,

I'm not sure if I've posted this one here before so here goes. By the way OLD BRIDGE New Jersey about 1964, does anyone recognize this as of yet unidentified Model "A" ?

And yep, it's a FOUR !!!!

Wow! What great photos. There's a lot of inspiration here. So, I thought I'd through my 2 cents in.

HERE WE GO!

The Boss Hydro. Decals were available for this from Slixx.

Big Time Memories 41 Willys. Decals for this are on the same sheet as above from Slixx. (If they're still available...sad news about that)

This next shot is of a 41willys P'up, but for some reason I did not get a shot of the entire car. All I have is detail photos.

OK quick question. SO for in this post I have seen the "High and Mighty" car a few times. I always thought that car was an altered and NOT a gasser. Am I incorrect? Which was it? Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?

According to this article in HRM, it was built as an AWB car: http://www.hotrod.com/featuredvehicles/113_0704_ram_rod/viewall.html

Tommy..you are correct. The High and Mighty was an Altered. Mike...the car was not built as an "official" AWB car. You may have thought that simply because they moved the rear axle location forward. That was legal in the altered classes and the AWB cars weren't in existence at the time the High and Mighty was built. The AQWB's came some 6 years later at least....
