Springtime Cruise and Hot Rod Show

Poor Boys Hot Rod Shop is located in a group of old, rather odd commercial buildings behind the old Boyd Coddington shop in La Habra, California. The shop hosts a cruise, and by 8 a.m. this year all of the hot rods were parked, the food trucks had breakfast ready, and the shop and vendors were open for business. The Poor Boys had some very interesting projects on display, and pinstriper Jeff Styles was available to apply accents to hot rods that needed a little something extra.

A Ford V-8-60, how cool! It’s in a ’27 Ford pickup, which is also pretty snappy. The truck is owned by Phil Reed of Whittier, CA.

It’s hard to beat a ’34 Ford three-window with 302 Ford power. This one is owned by Bert Lapierre of Fullerton, CA.’

An original-owner ’68 Ford Mustang GT with 302 Ford power and a rare tilt-away steering wheel is proudly owned by Tom Baker from Placentia, CA.

Check out the “wooden” window frames on Mark Jacobson’s clean ’53 Ford two-door wagon.

This sharp ’28 all-steel Ford sedan delivery took 47 years to build! Owners Roy and Judy Francis also used a 327 Chevy and an early Jag rearend. Was it worth the wait? You bet!

The list of features includes a 425-ci Buick Nailhead and painted Corvette side graphics on Bobby Eidem’s ’51 Chevy Deluxe convertible from Fullerton, CA.
The wire wheels and interior were perfect for this classy ’49 Caddy Club coupe from Fullerton, CA. The owner/builder is Dennis McKee.
There were 170 of these Super Eight Packard convertible coupe roadsters built in 1937. This one belongs to Neil Anderson of Fullerton, CA.
