Hi All, just a note to say that the coupe has been excepted into the National
NZHRA Show, will be spreading the word
I don't have any expectations for her as will be so many big buck cars on show
But its all about showing the old girl off
Show the people even the orphans are cool

Hi all, just got back from the NZHRA nationals, got heaps good feed back about the coupe, had a guy come up to me as we were taking it off the trailer, and commented that he would have never believed a 31 Essex coupe could make a cool rod but were had done a superb job of it and should be really proud (which I am)

Also took out the Best Modified Stock Coupe 1st prize for the show
My friends 32 Ford roadster and Hard top took out 5 prizes from best upholstery through to the best of the show
1st time in New Zealand the same car had taken out 2 complete wins for 2 major NZHRA shows in 1 year
Well done Lance Crane

Honestly....I'd take yours over Lance's '32....much more unique and classic....you don't need flames to "set your's off"!!!!

Excellent presentation!!

Went to a 1 day run for the Southside Hot Rod Club today and there was about 70 cars,the old girl got a prize for getting into the top 5
They didn't have an over all winner in the top 5
