Having fun with the 32 roadster from Ebay and Beppie

cool !

 

hope it's a vintage clown outfit

 

I think its good to enjoy these cars for their intended purpose...to tear it up a little! There are plenty of 32' roadsters in museums, I rather see em' in action.

By the way are there any close up shots of the dash? I remember it having a auburn panel, right? Anyway...amazing car, looks like a total blast. John

 

CHRR last month.........Z.D.

 

Thanks for the pic

Damn...thats a neat car. I like how dash wasn't even modified for the panel, just shows that most hot rods weren't perfect. Do we know what car the windshield came from? John

 

Looks to me like a '37 - '40 Cad-LaSalle (or '41 - '42 Cadillac) Convertible Coupe windshield ... ???

FYI, there's quite a few threads here on the H.A.M.B. with photos of the infamous "eBay $1000 '32 Roadster"...

...these two from the '32 Roadster for a grand? thread:

...these three that @sr posted:

Glad to see the bugs worked out. Awesome to see it being had fun with. Thats what its all about fellas enjoying your car and everyone elses. Spread the Gospel of the H.A.M.B. Hellsyeah! Props sr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I had to see it again! but wtf this car only cost you 1000.00 bucks? !!! dam it where was I. whats it got for an engine? see ya later Jared. p.s. take it to the beach but look out for Von Zipper

 

That's great. I never thought "Tread Lightly" would be a hot rod term.

 

At the risk of sounding curmudgeon... the first Video (Although Fun in any other vehicle!) looks like a group of teenagers "Gang ******" a 70 year old woman...!

Glad to see her at El Mirage... that is most fitting for the "Old Gal"...!

 

Uh um maybe I am off here but the skeleton is Social Distortion's calling card symbol. Its been utilized by the band since the middle 1980's and is still heavily used. SR is there hidden mythology I am missing about the symbol? I remember you saying it was just an inside joke out on the lakebeds that prompted you to place it on your cars.-Weeks

 

​

 

Me too!!

 

Never really looked that close thanks HEMI32. Interesting changes made. Gl*** is damn near empty and blind persons cane. Hm.... Senior Citizen's Timing ***ociation (SCTA) is all that pops to mind .-Weeks

 

Here it is kids!!Living proof! When hot rods are outlawed----Only outlaws will have hot rods!! Fun Fun Fun till your Daddy takes the T-Bird away!! ~Sololobo~

 

Hm.... band members eh . I am a pretty big fan actually of SD. I got a little interesting story for you SR not now, but later. Sometime when my car is driver status I will tell you lol. Think "May Cuase Dangerous" as far as the little things in life we "see" and do and the names that just fit with the cars we build-up. Some may think naming cars is corny but I like the added character and notriety it adds to the car itself. I especially think its funny when you know inside info that makes it more pertinent and meaningful to oneself pertaining to something no one else really knows except family etc. of the band .-Weeks

 

i love this car.....

 

Ok I'll get ya in the loop earlier. Done check your PMs.-Weeks

 

Gotta hate them damn kids and their hot rod jalopy!


I think it looks like fun, and if i had more ground clearance, id be doing it as well!

 

Sorry for dredging up this 6+ year old thread ... but I was watching this Dodge Brothers (circa 1920s) promotional film today:

​

... and it reminded me of the "naysayers" in this thread that thought @sr & his buddies were abusing the roadster.

 

Looks like you are getting your moneys worth.

 

Reminds me of West Beach in Stamford CT. in the 60's with my 30 Roadster. Yes the police got me!
Lets see and hear more about this 32!

 

...that windsheild looks a lot like a 49-50 Jeep truck

 

Pretty famous car...found on eBay "buy it now" for a $1,000. Car turned out to be a early westergard custom roadster. JohnnyA
