2014 Detroit Autorama – Hot Rod’s at Their Best #2

Like I said in the 1932 Ford “Perfect Deuce Hot Rod” story, many times, I’ll take bunches of pictures of hot rods I like at a car show. Too many times, I don’t post those pictures cause I never interviewed the owner. (I did a little this time!) It’s best for me, and hopefully you the reader to see AND hear why, “My Ride is Me” but if should I hold back the pictures? How many visitors only look at the pictures anyway??

So here’s another fantastically done Model A hot rod coupe from Dave Debaar. Dave told me this is one good thing to come out of long winters! He said, “When the cloud off Lake Michigan just sits there and dumps snow, especially when the rest of Michigan’s clear, we build hot rods like this!” This car never left Dave’s 3-car garage until it was running, including paint.

And… to my surprise, a 289 Ford small block’s between the rails. Dave home built a adapters to put 4 Holley 94 carbs on a dual four intake. It looks fantastic!
