1952 Ford F-6 COE, the Frankenford, a lot of humor and effort to look grungy








having the exhaust come out like this doesn't mean the engine actually is under the 57 Chev hood, but it could be. Unique at the least, pretty cool for sure. Having the radiator right in front of the rear axel makes me think the engine us under that hood... but that would be a lot of work to redesign the truck like that. Makes me wonder what they did with the original engine area

'52 Peterbuilt COE, one of 20 built this way, restored impeccably, and wonderfully displayed at the Art Center College Car Classic 2012


I find this very cool, a COE which you long time readers know I have a fixation on, an old semi which I also get a kick out of, and a lot to learn that I hadn't known (last image) that ties together the Fageol and Peterbuilt truck companies



I like the way it's draped over this small hill, showing it's articulation. I might be in the minority on that...  but the implied motion versus a flat parking lot setting is something I prefer
