The Jagged Edge

[Originally posted at On The Nightstand on Tuesday, October 11, 2016 and titled Trailer Tuesday 10/11/16]

The late Joseph 'Bogie' Beaudoin's channeled 1930 Ford Roadster powered by a caddy engine. Nicknamed "The Jagged Edge" it, for some reason, had a cigarette lighter mounted to the underside of the chassis.

Beaudoin was an original member of the Black Road Auto Club out of Stamford, Connecticut. This photo was taken in 1960 when he was 20 or 21 years old (born in 1939), three years after the club was formed. The location is across the street from the local favorite Tony’s Diner on Shippan Aveue in Stamford Connecticut.
