one winter afternoon

A memory from a cool and cold winter afternoon. Nicolas Wolleb, a talented young photographer from Switzerland, shot my ride two years ago. (photo © Cyclone Photography)

coupe of frankfurt

What better way to start the new year than with a fresh hot rod build? My buddy Andre from Frankfurt, Germany together with Godi from the Hot Rod Garage is currently building this traditional model A coupe and sent me a couple of nice shots from his shop. Stance and proportions are right on and the hearty chop makes for that sinister look we coupe lovers dig. Using the factory model A grille instead of a 32 shell is a nice change as well as the Opel headlights. For the "making of", check out the two extensive build threads Andre published on the HAMB: part 1 and part 2. Happy new year!
