2007 Grand National Roadster Show - Saturday Coverage

This black '33 Willys, stretched six inches, is the property of Bruce Cohn, was built by Ron Attebury and Matt Dowd at Ron Attebury Street Rods. The all-steel body on a tube frame chassis is powered by a GM 502 fuel-injected big-block with aluminum heads.

Barry's Speed Shop built this Deuce, nicknamed F-32, for Dennis DeCamp, with custom metalwork by Marcel, an aluminum 427 Ford engine, Tremec TKO500 trans, and Winters quickchange.

Readers of Rod & Custom have followed the buildup of Troy Ladd's "Respect Tradition" '32 roadster, built from a sectioned Brookville body. The 392 Hemi engine has a race heritage and is fed via a Hilborn injection system converted to EFI. This roadster is a project car for Troy's shop, Hollywood Hot Rods.

Bill Freni from Laguna Beach, California, aimed for, and nailed the early Sixties theme with this beautiful blue 'flake '32, packed with a small-block and rolling on wide whites and Radir five-spokes.

We first saw Kevin and Karen Alstott's two-tone '35 when it competed for, and won, the Ridler award at last year's Detroit Autorama. Built at Lakeside Rods & Rides, it's got a 408 Dart engine with a Tremec six-speed and sits on SAC rails with an Indy-style suspension.

Fans of green and purple are keeping their fingers crossed for Xtreme Thunder,Steve Barton's '32, built by Jordan Quintal of Super Rods by Jordan. Marcel Delay prepared the handbuilt body, while Boyd Coddington's Garage put together the frame. The eye-catching powerplant is a 904ci DOHC Joe Schubeck engine.

Monochrome orange is a great tone choice for this fendered'35 Chevy, created by Barry's Speed Shop and owned by Carl Sprauge and Custom Auto Sound. Underneath it's a Kugel independent suspenion-on the inside, a custom interior from Gabe's-on the outside, all that orange from Speed Shop Custom Paint.

Jesse greening from greening auto company in cullman, Alabama, built and owns this deep red open-wheeled roadster. Jesse dropped a 454 Chevy onto the rails and neighbor Paul Atkins came through with the first-class interior.

John Lawson's rotating display evokes the Motorama displays from the '60s, but the British racing green full-fendered Deuce is a blend of contemporary and traditional. The body is from Dearborn Deuce. The drivetrain includes a 572ci Rat motor, TH400 automatic, and Winter quickchange.

At 19 years old, Ashley Webb from Flint, Michigan, is the youngest AMBR competitor at the GNRS this year. Her father Dan did much of the work on this completely custom fabricated roadster, built using a Brookville body, inspired in design by the Harry Miller race cars. Power is from a Ford 2.3L engine with a Zakspeed head.

Jerry Kugel from Kugel Kustoms put together this '32 Speedster, with a mid-engine Oldsmobile Aurora tied to a 4T80. The body is all handformed aluminum by Marcel, riding on a Kugel chassis.

Never one to follow the crowd, So-Cal Speed Shop is displaying it's AMBR entry dissassembled. The Spencer2, was a project originally started ten years ago by the late Doane Spencer, and finally completed by So-Cal in the spirit of Doane's original design, using an original body and frame. A Roush-prepped 289 was chosen to power the '32, which according to So-Cal's Jimmy Shine, is the first driven-in, body-off competitor in AMBR history.
