Administrators Eric Posted July 26, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted July 26, 2022 This is a Graham Hollywood. This was a joint effort between Graham and Hupmobile. Hupmobile had purchased the dies for the 810/812 Cord (Coffin Nose Cord) after Auburn Cord Duesenberg went out of business, but they lacked the resources to make a car with them. Graham built a car for Hupmobile called the Skylark and was licensed to build their own version, which they called the Hollywood. Both cars were rear-wheel drive and didn't need the longer nose of the FWD Cord, so they were redesigned from the cowl forward. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borg warner Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 2 hours ago, Schmidt Meister said: I don't generally like rat rods but that's a nice one. I like the big and little wire wheels, the angle at which the body is "Dumped" forward, and the home-made headers, and the fact that it's a blown flathead.. supercharging is good on flatheads to help overcome the poor flow characteristics of the Flathead design and get the most power out of the meager 221 cubic inches and it also looks cool. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmidt Meister Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 1969 Volkswagen Beetle Street Rod - "Bug Truck" - Bid at $12,000, Reserve not met. The seller states that this vehicle will be sold on a clean Idaho title in his wife's name. This 1969 Volkswagen Beetle Street Rod, named Bug Truck, has been enjoyed by the seller, who now wants to focus on other projects. It’s safe to say you won’t park next to a similar vehicle when you’re driving this full-custom 1969 Volkswagen Beetle Street Rod “Bug Truck,” as the seller calls it. The seller/builder had both a VW shell and a ’49 Chevrolet cab for many years before got the idea to combine the bodies with a Chevy LS V8 and a custom chassis to make a one-of-a-kind street rod. The street rod Bug Truck has been featured at many car shows and was a finalist for the Hot Wheels Legends Tour. The seller is a longtime technician who performs all his own work. This VW street rod is not rear-engine, not air-cooled, and not a four-cylinder. Instead, it’s got a water-cooled, front-mounted Chevrolet V8, in the form of a 5.3-liter LS engine that was built 3,100 miles ago according to the seller. The engine is fed fuel through a Holley EFI system, has an upgraded camshaft and starts easily when cold, without any smoke or leaks. The GM Turbo Hydra-Matic 350 three-speed automatic transmission has a manual valve body and shifts well via a B&M pistol-grip shifter. The rear end is from a Toyota pickup. A large radiator with an electric fan was mounted in the pickup bed, and a custom gas tank takes up the remaining bed space. The one-of-a-kind body required a great deal of fabrication and bodywork. The seller/builder combined a 1969 Volkswagen Beetle with a 1949 Chevrolet pickup cab. The roof was chopped and a custom pickup bed was fabricated, using the original bedside uppers from a 49 Chevy. The heavily louvered VW hood was front hinged for engine access. The bed rails have been punched with beveled holes, and the taillights were integrated into the rail ends. The rear braces for the full roll cage go through the back of the cab. The truck was painted a couple years ago, after the build was completed, and there are no issues with the paint according to the seller. The glass is in perfect condition and the front and rear windows were custom cut per the seller. All the seals are new, so there are no leaks. The truck is said to be “rust-free.” https://www.hemmings.com/auction/1969-volkswagen-beetle-700819 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
