Val and Glasgow Mt, 1933 Ford 33' Plymouth

So yesterday I made the 3-1/2 hour trip to Glasgow Montana to get a 1934 Ford Frame for my new 33' Ford Pickup project.  My friend Jerry also lives there so it was a trip well worth the drive.  After I picked up the frame Jerry and I went on a hot rod  tour of Glasgow. 

We started at Jerry's where he showed me a picture of a car I was told about by my father when I was in high school.  I have been looking for this car ever since my dad told me about.  Needless to say I still haven't found it.  I was amazed to see that Jerry had a picture.

Larry Deal owned the car, that is Murk Mansel in the passenger seat.  This picture was taken in April of 1963.
Jerry has got a 70' Mustang Mach 1 that he bought new, it has 16,000 original miles on it.  The car looks brand new, it still has the original tires on it!  I'm kicking myself for not getting a picture of it, it's unbelievable.

Here is a couple pics of Jerry's 33' Ford coupe I just might sell parts of my body to obtain, he fits 5 vehicles in his garage so it was a little cramped.


We cruised around town saw a couple rat rod projects and the front engine dragster seen below.
It doesn't have the engine in it right now but, it ran a 292 straight six...crazy.
This is at the Malta 1/8th mile track.

Here is another 33' Plymouth that a guy in glasgow is building.
I also met this guy Stormer, he sells rc cars on the internet and drag races.  He has some cool stuff on youtube, but here is his drag car.  It's a 4 cylinder...crazy.
