What is your favorite Hot Rod of all time??

Would like to see what some of you have in mind for your favorite hot rod.Not so much customs.Pics would help with the reasoning if you have them

thanx,
Tom

 

that is a tough one.I guess I have a few.

 

My favorite would have to be Swamp Rat I-B. The blown version of Swamp Rat I. My reasoning...What's not to like?

 

anything that comes out of a HAMBr's garage , to pick just one would be unjust to many of the others as my tastes vary and the bitchin rides change daily..

 

Roth's Beatnik Bandit .

 

Jack Chrisman's Sedan

 

Robert Lomas Coupe
Mooneyham/Sharpe Coupe
California Kid

Toss up between these three...

 

This....

 

this one......(i think?)

 

My favorite T.....

Boy I have lots...
Probably three for every decade.
Here's the first that entered my mind as far as 60's versions.

 

great pics guys keep the pics and opinions coming

thanx
Tom

 

Anything built by Jake after Roth.

 

I would have to say my favorite Hot Rod of all time would be any of the Pontiacs driven by Arnie Beswick. Maybe it's not a Hot Rod but I love em Ponchos!!

 

This may be my new favorite picture and Hot Rod.

 

I agree with SUHR, with the Doane Spencer roadster second.

 

the ex pete henderson roadster

 

Frank Mack's 27 T which I saw at the first Autorama in Detroit in 1953.

 

I believe there are more pictures of this car, with a floating '33/34 grille in front. It's painted red and was featured in an early color spread in Hot Rod with a chain drive on the blower. Baddest hot rod of all time.

 

I'm really on a roll, posted on the wrong thread the first time.

 

don't ask me why but...

 

The one I drove to work this morning. (see avatar)

Reason? I get to drive it!

 

The Gabby Garrison roadster, in my eyes, is perfect. Subtle, tasteful mods combined with a killer stance - keeping the fenders is the key. I plan to build my T into a near clone of this.

 

The Bluebird Special, no doubt about it..

 

The Recently auctioned Chrisman Coupe and also Dickie Flippens's '32 Chevy which happen to be based off this Chrisman coupe I believe. The Pierson Bros' coupe was also pretty bad ass as well as anything the Rolling Bones are pushing out of their shop.

 

Gray Baskervilles Roadster ...

Not the fastest ...
Not the slickest ...
Not even the nicest 32 roadster around ...
But to me ... it is the ultimate Hot Rod

 

This one from a local guy. He is an older gentlman, I don't know his name but I am sure I will see him again. These photos were taken on his cars first car show outting since finishing his build. This car is exactly what I want some day.








Oh and I like Ryan's and 3WLarry's old ride.

 

I am with Gotgas on this one...here is another pick and a another of my other favorites....its just way to hard to narrow down.

 

probably one of my top 10...i have a cool shot of this car in front of their station....super cool... too bad the resto lost all the appeal....brandon
