Bill
Jansen's 1934 Chevrolet Master Coupe Hiboy
|
|
|
| I started building this coupe in
early 1967 and had it on the road by late 1968. After driving it for about 12 months
the flathead V8 started giving trouble and being young and foolish I traded
it in on a normal street hack. It was the sold to a person in Yass NSW who in turn
sold it to someone back in Canberra. While driving too fast
down a hill, the new owner lost control and rolled it, destroying the car. It was eventually
buried in a local landfill site. |
