    Here is a photo of my artist friend David Jones' fathers roadster, photo taken in California, looks like a nice car. I would love to find out more.

    Not trying to nit-pick, but isn't "Babe" the front half of a Touring?
     
  20. Bobbleeds Roadster built in 1955 had a 32 Sedan cowl and the rear quarters of a 28-9 Model A Roadster all to have the desired Roadster!

    Doesn't matter what it starts out at... all that matters is what it looks like when it's finished!

    So cool!! I am building an early T and Wow! How cool to see the way it really was. I'm sure this kind of thing was as controversial as Rock and Roll itself. Thanks. Oh yeah by the way I have that quote written inside my garage door. No kidding. .. SpudlyV
