The Original Black Widow restored by Richard Riddell
Built in 1952

“THE BLACK WIDOW” Builders: Wally Olson (1952), Bill Scott (1954) and Richard Riddell (2005) The garage locate of the century! How lengthy have you been hot rodding cars–because the 1950’s? Several of us got began in the 50’s and 60’s. (For you actual old birds out there that keep in mind hot rodding “T” roadsters with Roto-Faze ignitions, Ruxtell 2-speed rear axles, Riley two-port heads and Laurel lowering kits, effectively what can we say you are a generation just before us and we take our hats off to you ‘original’ hot rodders.) BUT for all of us “The Black Widow” is a significant piece of 1950’s hot rodding annals and a benchmark for the industry! In an report in Hot Rod Deluxe, July 2008 entitled, “Tangled Web” the full-story of Richard Riddell’s quest to restore the original Black Widow had its public debut. Hot Rod Deluxe reported the car’s winning the 2008 Grand National Roadster Show which was a dream come true, taking “Best Early Altered T Roadster”. (See also Rod and Custom, June 2008.) It was also a contender for the Bruce Meyer award at the ‘Grand Nats.’ Why do guys like Richard Riddell (and the rest of us) commit years (3400 hours in Richard’s case) restoring a automobile we discovered in a barn? Answer: ‘For the adore of the sport!’ All of us remember some other vehicles with similar names, for instance the ‘Black Widow’ Monogram model vehicle (“1/24 scale model/Ford ‘T’ Pickup Rod/removable top” by Mattel top quality hobby kits). Also, we keep in mind Common Motors/Chevrolet coming out in 1957 with their first racing version Chevy named “The Black Widow.” But predating both of these historic cars is the “The Black Widow” constructed by Wally Olson to support maintain his kids out of trouble in 1952 and 1st débuted in Hot Rod magazine, September 1954 in an write-up entitled, “Lil’ Beau T”, which read, “Wally Olson, Fresno, California, automotive machinist, is the fortunate owner and builder. Duane Taylor was called in for the physique work.” It added as to why he constructed the vehicle, “What with so considerably present upheaval in the teen-age ranks, Wally figured that a sure-fire way to eradicate those totally free-time, absolutely nothing-to-do troubles would be to interest them (his 9 and 12 year old sons) in a rod. So far the notion has worked like a charm.” In time the household moved on to other projects and Bill Scott purchased the auto and redid it with fenders, headlights and all the stuff to make it ‘street legal’—as we utilised to get in touch with it! The very first documentation of the auto getting referred to as “Black Widow” is located in the magazine Rodding and Re-styling, August 1957 problem. That report reported Bill Scott’s alterations to Wally Olson’s vehicle, “The front finish was revised to incorporate a tubular axle and tube shocks. The new owners also equipped the vehicle with a new energy plant. The original mill is a ’41 Merc bored out .100 inch more than stock, ported and relieved…includes 8.five-to-1 Offenhauser heads, a Weber full-race cam, and an Evans 3-caberator manifold.” [Note: The many engines that have been housed in this car later varied see final Merc develop particulars below.] Do not you really like the sound of that “ported and relieved” and “full-race cam”—when’s the last time you utilised those terms? By the time the 1959 Hot Rod Annual was published the vehicle-title stuck for all time “The Black Widow.” Riddell’s 2-Year Renovation! According to long time race automobile builder Richard Riddell’s log he states, “Sometime in 1955 Wally sold his roadster to Bill Scott. Bill once again known as on Duane Taylor to turn the car into a bonified street rod. With the further of windshield, head lights, tail lings, and fenders it was ultimately capable to jump into his small Hot Rod and go crusin’. The pin stripping was accomplished by none other than Dean Jefferies with the familiar cobweb and spider on the turtle deck.” He reports that the car’s very first win was “…a five foot trophy at the Sacramento AutoRama in 1957 for ‘Best Roadster’. Yes, Bill’s car was obtaining the time of its life getting a single of the best looking early California street roadsters of all time.” Richard states, “Bill Scott died around 1987…for several years the automobile languished…getting worse and worse…as is so usually the case for old Hot Rods.” The garage discover in 2005 notes, “At a glance the roadster didn’t appear that bad.” But the Naugahyde and carpet had been shot, fenders, original wheels and hub caps to name a few problems for the however to begin restoration. Riddell notes, “Under a somewhat decent body and paint job lurked a mess that went beyond your worst nightmare.” He adds, “I started wondering how I could salvage this little beauty in the rough. Not that a lot of people have restored an old Hot Rod but, these who have know what I’m talking about. It is a lot tougher than constructing a rod from scratch. But the roadster was begging to be restored and I’m glad that I was chosen to do it.”and#9472Richard died shortly right after finishing the project but happily he was in a position to see “The Black Widow” win the ‘Grand Nats’ and have a feature center-spread article in Hot Rod Deluxe. Here are a couple of of the Riddell-engineered refinements to this original vehicle. and#61692 Recessed pockets had to be constructed in the frame rails to accept the front motor mounts which double as water pumps. and#61692 New front radius rods have been built out of heavy wall chrome-moly tubing. The original ones have been so poorly produced that they had been unsafe. and#61692 The appropriate master cylinder banjo fitting was not available so, he fabricated a new one from scratch. and#61692 The tooling mandral had to be CNC machined to facilitate metal spinning new brass tail pipe finish bells. Hey would you agree? Hot rodding is an art type and some Hot Rod Artists have mastered the craft and Richard Riddell is 1 of them!!! Reconstruction points of interest: and#61656 Original steel physique and doors welded shut and#61656 ‘42 Merc 274 c.i flathead (present engine) and#61656 ’39 Lincoln-Zephyr tranny and#61656 ’34 Ford rear with Halibrand quick-change center and enclosed drive shaft and#61656 ’39 Ford hydraulic brakes all around and wide “5” 16-iunch wheels and caps and#61656 ’37 Ford tube axle and#61656 Engine by RPM Machine and#61656 Chrome by Ace Plating and#61656 Frame carried out by Capps Powder Coat and#61656 Body/paint by Showtime Customs and#61656 Upholstery by Brents Why is the car getting sold? To quote his wife Pat, “Unfortunately, Richard passed away on March 18, 2008 and will not get to enjoy seeing the new owner drive away with a piece of automotive history.” Richard’s loyal wife Pat grew up around racing since she was 9 years old. Her maiden name was Rodriguez. If you grew up at Lion’s Dragstrip, as she did, you might keep in mind her father’s rail? He and his brother ran an old top alky rail under the name “Rodriguez Brothers”. Pat said, ‘As I was developing up I often wondered how I would ever meet somebody to marry, because all that our family members ever did was go to the drags. Then one particular day Richard came along and met me at the Winternationals.’ Well the rest is history. For Pat after Richard’s death there are just also several memories attached to all the memorabilia, race automobiles and hot rods in their storage—she would like to sell “The Black Widow” to some deserving hot rodder.
