Comments: "Patience" is a NSRA National show
winner!
This outstanding all steel Southern street rod took Harold
Roundtree of L & H Rod Shop 2 1/2 years to complete! That's
a lot of patience, especially for a professional rod builder! I
just spent 10 hours looking over every inch of this car, and I
must say they named her right! Here's her story! It's a real
steel 32 Plymouth coupe, chopped 3 1/2 inches and bobbed 7
inches! The steel fenders, running boards, floor, firewall and
hood are double walled steel with lots of hand fabrication! The
entire cab is insulated with a hi-tech chrome mylar insulation,
so it's quiet and cool without needing A/C! The boxed frame is
highly detailed and painted with matching graphics. All
electrics and hydraulic lines are concealed within the boxed
frame. Custom hand sculpted front & rear "winkers"
are blended so flush in the body, they're almost invisible! The
motor is a freshly built (about 200 miles) Chevy 350 bored .030
over, balanced and blueprinted, with Brodix big valve aluminum
heads, a B&M 6-71 Blower, twin Holley carbs, all chrome of
course. A set of hand built Kruger headers with stainless/chrome
exhaust, dyno this beast at 625 hp.! Driven by a Turbo Hydromatic 400
transmission, with a B& M shift kit, it's hooked up to a
fully chromed Corvette independent rear suspension. A chromed
leaf springed dropped front axle, with Corvette disc brakes
front and rear keep her on the straight and narrow! The interior
was custom fabricated by Billy Scott in Rosewood fabric trimmed
with leather, topped off with a Coming Attractions digital dash
and a B&M lockout shifter. Painted with PPG Deltron urethane
in Lipstick red, it's protected by over 150 coats of wax!
"Patience' was the 2nd place winner at the '91 Nationals,
as well as several regional events. Recently appraised at
$125,000. replacement cost, it's not only too cool,... it's a
true bargain in todays dollars! Check out the web site for more
