I'm thinking of going with a dark burgundy red with matching chassis and an off white firewall white interior here is a pic of my car.<o></o>

 

nothin?

 

No roadsters with paint on them?
Lets see what you have done

 

Here's one I had. Not a great picture but it looked great in person.

 

I think that there will be a bunch that pop up since a great deal of the roadster that ran on the Lakes were Channeled for Aerodynamic reason plus it's just plain cool.

 

very cool car 231 . Lets see some more guy's

 

Here is my 29 roadster pick-up channeled 4".

 

Once I get my wheels on and it's on the road I will throw a pic of my '26 up.

 

Man i need to see a side profile of this ride--sweet!

 

Here's a shot of mine.

 

Here are a couple more. The shots of it in pink is as found in 1992. Early Olds with 40 Ford trans and rear end. 40 Ford dash. Neat car. I sold it back to the original builder who completed it for the 1956 Detroit Auto Show in Cobo Hall.

 

The Cockroach Roadster is candy copper with light gold fogged accents.

 

Did I see this car for sale at the Auburn Kruse auction last year? It is awsome! A 1960's time machine.

 

Not sure about Auburn? It could be the same car, it was sold in Monterey a couple of years ago and then sold at an auction in Dallas late last year, I picked it up from the guy that bought it there. Nick 32 Vick was able to get me some of the original build photos of this car from the 60's. Very cool pics.
It is really a time capsule, it is amazing how intact this car is.

 

Youve got a BAD ASS roadster, heres mine, built in '59. It has a 10 inch channel, chopped 32 grill, 40 ford dash, 51 pontiac tail lights and 49 Ford trunk hinges. Originally painted with 15 coats of a shade of '59 Chrysler red lacquer.

 

Thanks Stephen, I love your car too, I was hanging around your car at Cobo, I was hoping to be able to meet you and ask you about your car. I got it bad for 60's style channeled hot rods.

 

My uncles old roadster...Sold it last year to another HAMBer.

 

231ramona that cars a beauty

 

My wife and I love that roadster.

 

that thing is right on

 

Tom Branch's 32 is channelled and is one of the most "baddest assed" roadsters I've ever seen...

 

Iv posted this one before, but its still one of the best in my book. At the last revolution.

Gotta love a chrome box

 

anybody have pics of their frames on channeled cars?

 

I agree.

 

Tom's Roadster......
