Kris’ 1939 Plymouth Business Coupe in N. Dallas

Written by Ken Altes

At this trip to Home Depot, this was the oldest, and coolest, thing there. Kris bought the finished car from a S. Texas fellow. Powered by a 318 Mopar V8. This car looks even better the closer you  get to it. Love the stance, the rarity, the paint and the Cragars.

1939 Ford De Luxe Tudor Sedan in S. Austin

Written by Ken Altes

1939 Ford De Luxe Tudor Sedan with the classic flathead V8 with vintage go-fast parts. I see that it has Edelbrock heads and two carburetors. Got these pics at the old location of the Austin Speed Shop. I lived nearby and would often swing into their parking lot, mostly hidden from S. Lamar Blvd., to see what I could see. On this day, I got lucky!
