I just came across this thread, not sure if these have been posted yet. However, I always thought this was the baddest street roadster in all the land.

I believe that is the Berardini Roadster @loudbang posted above and yes it has has been a Looker all along with admirable lineage, no doubt about it...​

 

Yes, it is the Berardini roadster, however this version is no comparison. The fenders are much better in this revision. I helped restore the Berardini version and I am restoring the Jeano Lacoste version now. These fenders are cool.

I'm a little confused, I know it was sold at auction in the restored version similar to Loudbangs post but is there a tribute clone you are involved in as well Bob?

So you worked with Rex on the Salt Licked Jet Black version...pretty darn cool to be that up close and personal with such Hotrod royalty indeed...

 

My dad (Dave Crouse) and myself are Custom Auto. Custom Auto restored the 404 roadster to the Berardini version. Rex was an employee and part of the crew at Custom Auto. All the parts to the Jeano Lacoste version were not used in the previous restoration inorder to keep the restoration accurate. Attached are a few pics of the parts to the Lacoste/Tabuchi version of the roadster. Including original upholstery and hood with original paint.

Beyond cool Bob...the respect given to these classic gems with such ties to past Excellence are heartwarming...thank you and your team for your part in preservation of that time I can only envision as I wasn't there...are you able to share this build with us?...seeing those parts wow...Hotrod Diamonds...

I guess sometimes with these powerful statements to the past picking a period look can be challenging when there were several admirable states of being...

 

Thank you. I am gonna try the hamb. I love to share what I am doing in the shop. Magazines are dead, however I will be participating in shows in the near future. Thanks Stogy, great idea for a thread. Here is my shop truck with cycle fenders. Gonna paint it this summer.

An old custom roadster my dad had back in the mid 60's that fits the description of this thread. Not necessarily a traditional build as we typically like here, but the front fenders do work in my mind...

 

Just a part of the big picture, Yes
...not Traditional per say...period and Hokey Ass...absolutely...thanks for sharing it Guthrie...any more pics?...I think dad was creating a live T shirt Hotrod just add big smiling Hoodlum and Fink out!!...

Would you mind sharing that in the Homogenized Thread as it's Out of the Box and then some...

...Where is it now?...This was acquired by a Hamber who hasn't been on in several years and put up for sale again but it had a go fast past without question and was worse for wear when found but still in pretty good condition due to dry storage...and it has of course the fender combo to suit the cheaters...

The 1961 America’s Most Beautiful Roadster winner was this Model A belonging to Rich Guasco.

 

A more Traditional Look in a quickly changing period in Hotrod and still with us...

Flipped my new calendar to March and this popped up.

 

I was looking though my Deuce days album yesterday for a different photo and ran across this three window. The looks says road burner to me.

...Hamber @tywester1955 hasn't had that many posts but talk about a heavy hitter of a blast from the past...

This was a pic from 1954 that sat undeveloped till 2016 and a friend of his gifted him with it when he had it developed...Rear with Cycle Front and Half Fendered are both represented in this early drag racing pic...priceless...

Thanks Ty...check his Thread out at the link above...for more on that Story...

...Shared by Hamber @Ryan in a Thread Showcasing an early 50s Motorama Show...what a Class event it was...they even gave away a George Barris Customized Cadillac as a Showprize...

But when I saw this Roadster I'm lovin' it through my bulging Eyeballs aka Ratfink...
