Rodder's Digest 1990 No.37 - Graffiti Ghost

In issue No.37 Rick hits the swap meet looking for parts and scores some goodies for the Ghost. He also builds a seat for the coupe from wood. It's a good read.

Rodder's Digest 1990 No.36 - Graffiti Ghost

In this issue Rick gets his custom made Sanderson Headers. I just wonder how many of you coupe builders bought the Sanderson Headers?? I think I found out where they got their dimensions.

Rodder's Digest 1990 No.35 - Graffiti Ghost

It is nice to see I am not the only one battling the Graffiti Curse. Rick puts the brakes on his 32 and the demons rear their ugly heads as this easy build fights back and shows you that nothing about a Milner Coupe is easy.

Rodder's Digest 1990 No.34 - Graffiti Ghost

Mr Love digs deeper into his coupe and shows how to cross some of the bridges you come upon when building a hot rod of any kind. From the A/C ,Radiator size ,Crossmembers and Clutch linkage of his steel bodied 32.

Rodders Digest 1989 No.33 - Graffiti Ghost

It's October a month for tricks and treats so I am getting out the ghost. Feel the Graffiti Love as we follow a fellow coupe builders project. This month you will see a 1932 Ford dress up as John Milner's Graffiti Coupe. The costume is a little off but it's still pretty cool. The build runs thru about 8 issues. I will get them all posted this month so stop back for random posts.

Happy Halloween (in advance)
