    AV8 finally on the road

    I know this site is more for the stockers. I thought some guys might appreciate this car, as it's built with a lot of old Ford parts,in a 1940's fashion. I bought this car off of an 81 yr old man named Herman. He started hot rodding it in 49', it ran a banger motor with a Winfield head.
