Joe Mack...
Joe Mack is
legendary far beyond the suburbs of Maryland, thanks in part to Steve Coonan,
creator of the Rodder's Journal. Joe was involved in a number of car-related
businesses but his most successful one was upholstery. Steve Coonan documented Joe's adventure
driving his 1929 Ford Roadster across America. The picture belowe shows Joe on
his way to California where he made a lot of friends... also some of the
legends of the Hot Rod world.

Sled Saturday
1947 Buick Sedan Leadsled...
Lots of work got in to this ride... the front I can dig but the roofline could be done better I think.
Of course... chopping a sedan is a pain in the ass... but then rather leave it original / alone.
