This is the 31 Ford Roadster sitting in The Fonzes shop that he would work on. The car was built for Paramount studios in 1976 for the show.
I was told that Gene Winfield built it for Paramount. I talked to Gene last week and he informed me he did work on it but didn't build it. The car is a 1931 ford roaster channeled on the a 1932 frame. The motor is a 69 mustang 302 with a C-4 trans.
She has a nine" ford rear end ,full SW gauges, Complete Chrome poise dropped front axle, all the wiring is hidden and has a lot of hand made items, Plus great details. Runs & drives perfect. 45,000 or best offer.

Is this the car that the DAS driver took for a joy ride before delivering it to you? What ever became of that?

Actually I recall seeing a Car Crazy episode where he interviewed Jeff Beck. Apparently Jeff made his own copy of the car. He did most of the work himself. It was in his shop. Very impressive

Kim, I have friends always looking for 29-34 Fords. In fact most of them are in the area where you bought this car. Is the body original Ford steel?

These are pictures I have of the actual Duece Coupe used in American Graffiti. I took these at the Pittsburgh World of Wheels Show a couple years back.. John Milner (actor Paul LeMat) was there signing autographs by the car...

I think Milner was pretty cool in AG and AB&R. I still remember going to the show when both movies came out. What's funny is, I owned my 68 Z/28 around the same time frame of AB&R. I'd like to see LeMat do more car movies.
Is that the current owner of the Coupe sitting beside Milner?

What I think is interesting is that the lic. plate "THX 138" numbers are in every Lucas movie somewhere.
