JRD_004_Johns-Almost-Bare-Chassis
John Perrot was a serious rodder in the mid-’50s. He took his Deuce 5-window completely apart for a ground up resto. As you can see, he made a few changes along the way… starting with a pretty radical drop with the front axle. If you dig out the May ‘56 issue of Rod & Custom you’ll see John later inserted a Cad V8 to motivate his not-so-sedate ride.
