Pictures man, pictures!

I have always like the lines of that car (original, or made into a hot rod!):

It'll be a mild hot rod. It will look stock on the outside except that it will be lowered. It'll have a souped up 49 Ford flathead, a Camaro Borg Warner T5 tranny and a 9" Ford rearend. It's ugly right now.

What little of it I can see favors a Marble’s Woodcraft.


Thanks for the info, I'll have to dig further. In the limited searching I did, I saw a couple of other Marble's knives that we have here.

No, but, it will be in the next revision of Garnett Stancil's Savage 101 Pistol book just like yours is.

The Savage Collector Forum should probably forward what we know about the 101, variations, Chicopee, Westfield, boxes, grips, etc. to Stancil for the next revision just to capture it.

your are welcome. Up until last year we had several car shows here and in Colorado. I hope they get going again. It's enjoyable to share stuff with other people.
