KABC in LA covered the Grand National Roadster Show, and Travis' hot rod got a prominent look... it's all about location! He got the perfect parking

Good photo, that's a tribute to the car builder, who decided that this brake light belongs right there

maybe it's the curves in the body line contrasting the curve of the tire being bisected by the chrome. Whatever it is, it's a great spot for that light.
Not many hot rods go with the 413 Max Wedge induction, it's awesome looking long induction has to be the most far out I can think that any factory ever made
That brass is great
And you might not see them well, but the stanchions are huge pistons, or look like pistons, and make a great display

Great gauges, and I dig the coke bottle opener
Good thinking in the chair design, I asked about them and Ricky tells me he picked them up at a yardsale for 5 bucks because they're cool and dated 1945. I dig the pinstriped tool box too
Don't know if you can make out the generator on the near side of the engine, but click on it for full size and check out the cooling scoops on it.
Completely digging the column mount... the huge wingnuts are sweet!
Not a vintage Stewart Warner speedometer, but I like it better than one that works, because who the hell needs to know just how fast you are going? You are getting a ticket or not.
Towards the bottom of the above photo are the two shifter levers, speed shifting made easy, the left one is reverse up, 1st gear down, then push it to the middle and slide your hand over to the right lever, and push it up for 2nd, down for 3rd. Easy, simple, very cool
Love the below fuel tank mount piece, the decorative piece below the cap, it's a theme carried throughout the car
I will need to ask, but it looks like the sides of the above brake light are turn signals... very cool innovation
I'm a sucker for an ammo can tooSee it's build and more from Travis, at his blog http://perichbrothers.blogspot.com/
