I have been gathering some history on my 37 roadster. Recently, I met the guy who owned it 40 years ago, so now I have created an exclusive page just for this. I know some guys here know a bit about it, as I was using the brains trust on the RRT to guide me along in the rebuild. So, for those that remember, and those that don't, go here for a bit of Aussie history.

After reading the history, and seeing the accident results, it might explain the dip you had in the frame rail.
Welcome to hell. Here's your accordion.

Might have had something to with it Frank....as well as the rust and the supercharged Chevy twisting it in all directions :wink:  :) The only evidence I found was the left hand inner guard had a few wrinkles. I'm surprised he was capable of standing to pose for the photo. He said he was knocked out a while.....His driving record was not good either. He had pictures of other cars he had, and he totalled a few....So keeping the 37 in one piece was a bonus. :wink:
