- One of the best parts of owning an old hot rod is tracking down it's history and previous owners. Matt was able to do so with the 32 Coupe and 34 Tudor he purchased from the Schroll estate. Today we are going to meet one of the owners of the 34 coupe and his good friend that helped keep the car legal and on the road! Learning all the little changes and modifications they made to the car over the years of ownership was amazing! We really enjoyed talking to Bob and George, and even the new owner was able to talk to them and get some more information about the history. We hope to do an update on the 34 as the new owner gets to work!!1 Thanks for watching!!!

Great to see ya Pappy Diehl !! Cool car / Cool video !!!! - Eddie
There’s 1000 TH-cam channels that will tell me how to weld in a patch panel or Dragon a car out of the junkyard or how to put a rear ended but there’s fewer channels that will take Time to dig up the history of a car and honor the previous owners I appreciate that This is not disposable entertainment you’re documenting and sharing peoples lives Having the history Is just as important as save the vehicle from the junkyard
@thinkingofyouto, well said, my thoughts exactly!!!!!!👍👍
spot on!
Thank you so much! It’s something I’m really passionate about as these weren’t (and aren’t) just cars to the guys and gals that built and ran them, they were their identity and their badge of honor. I think documenting and honoring hot rodding history is as important as rebuilding the cars! Thanks for following along and appreciating what we’re doing!
That information on the car was so interesting. Thank you for sharing this.
I'll be darned! first comment. Only had to stay up until 4:00 a.m.
👍
looking around the sparse crowd i see no younger folks...
Wow. How good was that to see the previous owners giving u history. Then to see where is heading. The CIRCLE of life is alive for this old girl. Too cool. 👍
Cool story Matt this is a tribute to your channel that people know enough to reach out to you
Thank you Gerry!
Great Pennsylvania hot rod history story. The geneology story of this car and Larry's story is fun to follow. Thanks Iron Trap family!👍🍺
Man I love when these old guys pop up and know the history on things like this
Matt stories like this is soooo cool to get the first hand history of the old days. You can read all the little mags you can get your hands on but this is great and now a little bit of hot rod history is forever recorded for all to see. Just fantastic Matt.
He just bought a gold mine on wheels!! There's a new evolving market and collectors that are paying a premium for documented original surviving street rods from the late 40s through the 1960s. The pictures and proven provenance are as valuable as the car. Amazing find my friend. Well done.
100% spot on. Old hot rods with photos or documentation are where it’s at now a days!
It is great to see cars like this resurface. Congratulations to the new owner. Best of luck on his plan to keep the 50's ish feel. Happy Hot Rodding!!!
My Dad used to run the Road Aces back in the late 50s- early 60s in Hanover... he ran a DeSoto. I think he crashed it on the strip.
The body welded to the chassis with those big meaty stick welds is so much part of this old Hot Rod Henry it would be well worth keeping that for originality. I've rebuilt a lot of 32 chassis over the years that were considered junk by others, that's what they make welders for!
I grew up in NZ and when i was at school there were a lot of channelled cars running about .A lot more than most folks would realise today .Some survived the first WOF season then became a stock car racer or parted out for a better version. By the 70's we were starting to gather up a lot of them to build into street rods and in one or two cases actually restoring them back to stock. A bunch of us went to Horopito Motors around 75 to collect a 32 chassis from Bill Cole ...for $150 . my mate bitched because it had rust around the front spring perch. 😁😁
@@Mercmad I ran a channeled 34 until the mid 70's in NZ then a hammered 32-5W Hiboy, Black Pearl. Been in the US over 30 yrs now.
I imagine this car spent a lot of time at the Tropical Treat, the A&W root beer and the cross keys drive in.
I remember Tropical Treat we used to live 2 blocks from the Treat when I was growing up in Stowe. Many good memories.
@@dennism341 Different tropical treat, the one I referred to is just outside of Hanover Pa. I looked up the one in Stowe, same basic Idea, except we are lucky enough that ours is still in business after all these years.
@@PeteRondeau I know things change it's not the same anymore. We don't live there anymore we are now in central Pennsylvania.
Hanover pa is my neck of the woods. My dad used to terrorize the streets in the 60s and 70s. He used to race us 30 in his 66 chevelle. I love listening to his and his friends stories of back in the day. Thanks for the great videos Matt!
Great job.What did the 34 bring ?
17.5
I love hearing the old history of these cars. Great job Matt!
This is awesome! , Thanks for helping in the passing of the stories and history of these classic hot rods!! 👍🏁
Excellent video! I love hearing the stories that these older guys tell. That make that car so much more interesting when you hear the history and see the guys who were involved with it. I'm an older guy myself and these stories bring back lots of memories of the 60's and 70's for me.
Thanks for watching!
Like you have said in the past, having the history of a car makes you have a much better connection with is and actually ads value to it.
3:56 - For Pontiac fans, The word "crap" is not as negative in Eastern Pa.and NJ. as in most other areas. It usually replaces the word "stuff".
I feel most people would pick up on that, at least I did.
Seems nobody wants to own up to putting that steering setup on it
Hahaha
My great uncle grew up there. I live in Philadelphia, and he had a 1948 business coupe he hot rodded. I'm sure he encountered them, he was around the same time, also in the 50's. I'm saving up fro an old 30's or 40's car to hot rod myself. I've been working really hard, i get my license next year.
I like how the new owner is very young but is wanting to fit an Olds!. I'd do that too with the tri carb etc etc. BTW there is a world wide shortage of suitable plexiglass. Especially if you want quality tinted stuff.
I love the history end of this car . It's great that people who have been involved with these cars are still around and have pictures of how they use to look . If only the cars could talk, the stories they could tell 🤔🔧
LOVE the history. Is the new owner from the area. Quarter Ace's Dragway is now South Mountain Dragway. Kowalski has his Vintage Drags there ever spring. The place is a time warp.
Great video. Loved hearing those guys talk about the car's history. And now with the new owner that history continues for another generation. How great would it have been to have seen that car run with the 289, facing off against GTOs in the street?
Had to be a sight to see!
Matt and Mike, wow!!! Too cool, you finding & putting together the history of this car is....there is no words!! I'm sure you will keep in contact with the new owner, I noticed he had a ITG T shirt on....that says alot...I think it would be awesome to put together a car show with Larry's cars....Kudos to the ITG team!!!
Amazing video, great to hear the history of the car and previous owner and friends. That probably brought back a lot of memories for them, they also sounded like great guys! Thanks for a great story! Kevin
Very cool.
Glad that you put so much energy into the hobby, we get to hear interesting stories.
Pretty neat from Hanover pa thanks guy for the history
This is fascinating Matt. I know that you will keep us updated if you receive more information. I love this channel and never miss a video. 👍👊☮️
So awesome that these cars brought out so MANY memories with these guys! I sure glad they came to the auction...like Key Note Speakers!! Just awesome!! Thanks for documenting this Matt.
GREAT VID MATT! I LOVED HEARING ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THIS CAR!! GREAT JOB!!!
This is an awesome video ..
I’ve always thought “if these cars could talk”....to hear the cars history through previous owners is about as close as it gets
Thanks for sharing
Great video. Thx for doing what you do. The cars are cool but the history is way better.
Slightly off topic: Please help my memory? Early 60s, I recall my trips to Hanover from Southern York County there was a Candy Apple '40 Ford coupe, a blue '29 Ford roadster pick-up and a custom car cruising the streets/drive-ins. Do you know the owner's names and what was their 3rd car?
On topic: An Olds, a Y block and 289 Hi-Pro, it doesn't get any better. I always liked the OEM '65 Mustang shifter with the reverse lockout. The Hi-Pro cast iron headers were a work of art.
Bill Holtz with the Gurnsey Barn car shows, York's Ammon Smith car shows, the Lincoln Drive In movie..... great memories!
Push Truck
So cool this stuff brought back memories for you!
Mornin from Texas brother , appreciate the content ! aaaaand Im' still look'n for a '30 model a body with a title.
The grill with attached (sculpted) radiator cap(?) is kewl! ;-)
Awesome history on the car, it’s always cool to see previous owners.
Thank you very awesome and history of this car ! Take care , stay safe and healthy wherever your research and adventure takes you ! Doing well here in Kansas .
Great video listening to the previous owner and guys that worked on it.
That's my father in law George Diehl! He's still cruising and raising hell. 😆 🤣
So happy its new owner is keeping it within its history, was worried this one was going to get turned into a modern street rod. Cool that its kind of blood brothers with matts red sedan.
Considering what you have done they should give you that car.
I’m more than happy with what I was able to purchase from Larry’s estate!
That’s so cool that the previous owner and the other guy that worked on it many years ago were able to provide the history and photos.
Matt you were talking to yourself in 40 years . Video was priceless.
Hearing stories about old hot rods has always been kewl but to hear them directly from the owner/builders from back in the day- fantastic!
I hope that the new owner keeps us updated and the car doesn’t “disappear” for another 40 plus years.
Very cool to get to hear all the hot rod history for this awesome car!
It's good to know the history of older cars its history on how racing started.
Such a awesome video Matt I absolutely love all the old stories tied to the cars if only the cars themselves could talk the stories they would tell
How brilliant, those old guys and their stories are priceless.
Great to hear the car is in good hands for the future.
That is so cool, what a rare opportunity to ba able to talk to one of the early owners of a car like that.
Very well held interviews Matt. Great how you showed those old guys so much respect.
Hey Matt first let me say Thank You for your channel you reach thousand of people world wide. Because of that you were able have the owner tell the history of the coupe how cool is that. A home grown car that stayed in the area for all those years. And to top it off an Iron Trapper got the car so hopefully in time we will see again back on the road.👍
Thanks so much! We’re excited to see it get put back on the road!
That's amazing to get the information from the old owner's to the new one. I would love to see the car when he finished with rebuilding it. That would be really nice.
that's awesome,cool..
Awesome to have the previous owner there. I bet it brought back good memories for him!
this is such a treat! thanks so much for recording history for the enjoyment and education of enthusiasts.
Hanover HotRod ! They need to call it that
Great to see, the car found a good home. Having the previous owner talking about the history and showing photos is way cool 😎
What did it sell for at the auction?
Matt said 17.5.
Great video. I loved hearing the previous owner's stories and the new owner's plans. Best vid yet, thanks.
Too cool. Living in the Hanover area, it’s awesome to hear these stories.
Great Video. Glad that you got more history of the car. #STAYSAFE
He's Putting An Oldsmobile Engine Back In It ?
That’s Awesome!
Cool History! So how much did the car bring at the auction?
My favorite movie is "Hot Rod the future"
Good job 👍
I myself would keep it Ford powered. 289 Hipo's are screamers. No GM junk in my Fords. Flatheads, Y Blocks, small block Fords are the way to go. It's nice hear the original owner talking Ford power. I come from a Ford family back ground . Grampa , Dad , Uncle owned many different Fords. Eat sleep and dream about Ford power.
My 66 Mustang GT K code had the 289 hipo and I will concur it did indeed scream.
How is the car now? Do you have a link? Cheers :D
WOW NICE CATCH OF THE VIDEO GREAT SHOW ON HERE TODAY STAY SAFE DOWN BY YOU GUYS
I love that center door T
I wonder what that sold for?
It's rare to see a Ford with a Ford engine in it.
Yes it is, my 36 pu started with the flathead, then a Y-block then a 390 Fe and then a 427 FE. It was all kinds of fun
Its not that rare.
This channel is getting real good, Matt!
Thanks Doug!
Wow great history on a nice hot rod!
That's an amazing story and glad it's going back to the 1950s state in a way. Is he doing a LaSalle transmission or a 39 Ford behind the 303 Oldsmobile that you know of?
Great video absolutely loved watching it! I really enjoyed listening to the owners and builders. Thank you so very much
Thanks for sharing
That was my friend George at the beginning with hat and sprint car shirt! Great guy with a lot of knowledge.
Wow , that’s one of the better vids , nice to see the previous owners and learn the history of a car like that, and to see the young guy who wants to put it back to the way is was is awesome .
Wow, it’s amazing that you caught up with the previous owners,that’s rare.
You could always go by a aftermarket frame probably safer & stronger!
Super cool that you could come up with all the history and the old and new owners.
Can you track down the Lincoln Drive-in owner?
Such a great story so cool loved this video man that was awesome
Very awesome history, someone needs restore it back.
Very enjoyable nice to hear about it’s history
Neat learning some history of the old rod!
What a great video! This is awesome. Only you Matt 🏁👍
I love the history thanks for the up date
Would have liked to get this one!
Good stories 👍👍😊👍👍
how cool
hello brasil
Hi, Matt, last week you mentioned that your first dream car was a T-bucket. This months Hot Rod, magazine has the Kookie T on the cover. The first one is back in town. Ross Myers bought it for his collection. You give the hobby a life and memories. Thanks again
it features lot in a movie called "the choppers"
The Choppers featured the Ivo T. Another iconic early tbucket though!
Kate actually helped on the photo shoot of the kookie T for rodders journal!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
