1932 Ford Coupe

DeuceRod

This deuce coupe is a little “in your face” but thats the beautiful part about the hot rod hobby, you can make them as wild as you want.

A little peek of the air filter on the small block Chevy engine.

DeuceRodThree

This one also has the more classic approach to hanging the mirrors compared to yesterday’s deuce coupe.

And of course the beautifully finished dashboard and interior. I hope you enjoy.

She’s My Little Deuce Coupe

DeuceCoupe

This is one of my favorite year hot rods the 1932 Ford Coupe and I always think of the Beach Boys tune “Little Deuce Coupe” when I see one.

DeuceCoupeTwo

This particular car is chopped. If you notice in the first photo the yellow deuce coupe in the background has a taller windshield. The avid hot rodders back in the day used to cut the roof off and take a few inches off the roof supports then weld it back on. Of course this meant fabricating new windows to go along with the custom metal work but it was with the effort because of the better looks they attained.

DeuceCoupeThree

When she’s all finished you have a great example of the classic “Little Deuce Coupe”. This particular one was for sale also, hmmm. I hope you enjoy.

Smooth Sailing

SmoothSailing

The Great South Bay is smooth as glass in the early morning but it looks like some storm clouds are moving in. It’s a shame because it’s a really clear day today and usually you can’t see the second bridge to Fire Island (Robert Moses Bridge to the right). I hope you enjoy.

The Downeaster “Alexa”

This is a music video of a song written and performed by Long Island local Billy Joel. Years ago when this song was written the shellfish and fishing industries were in sad shape on Long Island but luckily they have bounced back to some degree. As you could imaging fishing is a big part of the local economy here. For those of you who are not familiar with the term Downeaster it is one of the types of boat used in the fishing industry in the New England area of the USA. I hope you enjoy.
