    Jimmy Benitez, AKA Rogue, built that truck about ten years ago.

    It is the one with the Shredders lettering on it now.

    I really dig this one. I went back to look at it a couple times. Really nice and understated.

    Saw your car at Custom Nats HEMROD, real nice,

    I've just waded through this thread again over the last couple of days
    so many grouse A's!!

    I don't have any pics but a couple of my fave's from down here are Paul Azzopardi's A roadster full fendered, candy apple red, radar's & ply's he built it around 8 yrs ago any one got pics? havn't seen it since he sold it.
    Also I think it may have been Greg Ford?? who owned the A coupe with FINK plates? started out black & purple scallops and ended up Gold? Also the Metal flake green pickup?? Any one got pics here? can any body help?

    Thanks Outback. I agree Paul's old car and Greg's cars all belong on this thread

    Thanks man. Lots of little stuff to finish, but I like it more every time I drive it. The plan is for full interior and top this Fall and maybe shiny paint next winter.

    I was surprised not to see the Lieb roadster on here. That car is fantastic.

    I've been considering keeping the fenders on my 29 roadster build. Any good pics out there of fendered roadsters?

    My favorite was the one my husband brougt me for my 26th birthday.
    It did not look like this when it came to the house on a rollback, that day back in 1979, but after a couple of years of work it was wonderful. I still miss my truck.

    5 months my eye! I've been driving it like this for the last 3! ;)

    It's not "done" done though, still needs the top finished up and a new roof insert. Too much fun driving it though to tear into it. Once the cold weather rolls in it will be time to revisit some stuff and get it "finished" if there is such a thing as ever completely finishing these cars..

    Well there is a Model A somewhere in there...
    I was told that it was originaly built in the 50's then redone in the 70's
    They called it the SUPER FROG hence the frog on the trunk.
