A gem from the Malaga Auto Museum in Spain, built by customizers there and apparently commissioned by the museum's owner. It's a 1934 Ford with "widening of the fenders that give the car strength and elegance," according to its sign.
A "hand" hood ornament and crystal-swathed windshield complete the look. I remember when this style of hot rod - basically a Ford body dropped onto a chassis, with fenders to cover the frame - was popular over here. It wasn't for long. There's a reason for that.

I’m a freelance writer and a member of the Automobile Journalists of Canada. My regular outlets include new-car reviews and special-interest articles for National Post and its Driving.ca website; new-car reviews and features for AutoTrader.ca; features for Automotive News Canada; articles on antique cars for Old Autos Newspaper; and articles in the industry trade magazines Collision Management, Fleet Digest and Tire News. You can still find my work at Autos.ca, where I wrote reviews and features, and was the Assistant Editor. For almost three decades, I wrote for the Toronto Star's Wheels section, and also contributed to the newspaper Metro.
But I’m more than just cars: I also write about food and drink, travel, pen collecting, celebrity interviews and pets, among others. My work has appeared in such publications as Sharp For Men, Maclean's, Harrowsmith Country Life, Pen World, Dogs In Canada, Gambit, Where New Orleans, Rural Delivery and Writer’s Journal.
