This last one is one of the finest ones in the bunch.

Awesome detail, stance, color.

Great car man.

 

thought i put my roadster on here but there are alot of nice roadsters out there

 

heres my old 'driver' not a HAMB friendly vehicle BUT a nice car & driver none the less!
sold it. i dont know why but i sold it. -- it was a 'SUPER NICE' body along with all the sheetmetal.

 

Why isn't it HAMB friendly? I like it. Something about the color speaks to me too.

 

Dean Lowe ... I was gonna post the same thing (but chickened out for fear of being chastised by the "HAMB Trad Police") ... Anyway, I like it too ... it has a nice stance! ... Four bars, flat hood side panels, billet steering columns, etc. might not be "HAMB friendly" ... but if that RPU were mine, I'd just change the rims (to polished 5 spokes) ... and DRIVE it!

PS ... if you'd like more info on Joe Cardoza's orange '29 RPU (posts #104, #114, & #118 in this thread), you might try contacting HAMBer Butcher Boy (Dave Schaub) ... Dave is a Bay Area Roadsters member and sees Joe on a monthly basis ... and Joe might have some info about your current (yellow) '29 RPU.

 

My thoughts exactly. Polished 5 spokes, or Halibrands, and that RPU would suit me fine. Thanks for the lead. I'll contact Dave.

 

Detonator, Your RPU is BEAUTIFUL.

Nick.

 

I kinda' liked this one, outta Posies shop....Might not be for everyone, though. It was knocked around a bit awhile back on here.

 

Well I stand corrected. Just repeating what I was told.

 

Here's my 'home built' Family Truckster:
Inline Ford six
2.47:1 rear gears
Runs 11s. 2000 Class Champ at Milan

Yup, 11s.

 

I assume you're talking the Boston WOW...I am, I'll be there Sat..not sure what time yet though

 

Does anyone have more photos of this pickup?

 

Here is a 28 RPU I just picked up this week

 

Don't need no stinkin' top just because there's snow eh?

 

not mine, but very nice!

 

Real enough for me

Show the crowd your brothers in progres RPU aswell Neal.
It's a work of art too.

Thanks, here's my brother's project...



We are a pretty narrow minded bunch I guess.

Sweet car.

 

TRACTOR NOSES ARE THE COOLEST,,, looks lots better than a Model A radiator shell on this model A roadster pickup!

FORD 8N OR 9N tractor hoods and noses ARE STILL BEING MADE TODAY AS REPO'S

 

Now for something completely different!
