That '39 looks OK for a custom, although the hot V-8 under the hood is a bit of a shock. I am not at all fond of those wire wheels -- that wreath in the hub cap looks like a Cadillac emblem. The steering wheel makes me wonder if it came from a 1930s Ford, with the "V8" atop the horn. I would have kept the original steering wheel; that would have at least gone with the car.

Finally, the owner gripes about trying to sell this rod for $35,000, comparing his car to those on eBay that sell for $89,000. Surprise! Those cars happen to be original in great condition.
