  13. roadster has no roll up side windows and windshield frame unbolts from the car.

    cabriolet has roll up side windows and fixed windshield frame.

    this one is a roadster. look at the windshield frame.

    I've got a set of Ardun heads I found at a yard sale that would look killer under the hood of that '36.

    wish those people in Tulsa had listened to the people in OKC on how to preserve a vehicle..there would be a pristine 57 Plymouth rolling around now instead of a rusted poc. All they needed to do was to roll it into a barn..
