1936 Ford Coupe - Ross Myers

Famed engine builder and racer Ed Pink was still a teenager when he bought this Ford coupe in 1948. It was soon chopped five inches, hot rodded with Edelbrock speed equipment, and turned into a racecar. It competed on the California dry lakes, at Bonneville, and at Santa Ana Drags. In 1951, Ed joined the army and the coupe was sold soon afterward. Now it is owned by Ross Myers and in the final stage of a full restoration at The Forge in Loveland. The Flathead with three Strombergs is temporary while Ed himself finishes the flattie that will replace it. Myers’ historic hot rod, still called the Ed Pink coupe, won the Preservation Award at the Grand National Roadster Show
