Hot Rods My new Miller Banger 28 Roadster

Collected last week while I was in CA showing my coupe at GNRS, plus sold my 29A roadster project to a UK rodder so was on the lookout for a new easier project (I travel a lot on business so limited on time with a 2 year old as well)

My new 28A Roadster with a Miller headed B Banger, Cross Drilled C crank, full pressure oiling, Magneto, Twin Strombergs, 34 Banger box, Halibrand quick change Model A rear, juice brakes.

Allegedly it was originally build by the owner/founder of Ross racing pistons Ken Roble - don't know how true this is...other than some named engine build sheets and bearings for the Halibrand rear end

She needed a few things sorting to get her running and driving right, it had only done about 100 miles in the last 5 years - few hours changing all fluids, empty the 5 year old gas, rebuild the strombergs, - runs great now,
Just waiting for my new tires as the ones on it are original implements that are cracked and rock hard.

Going to drive as is for a while and iron out any issues, then strip and paint the body dark blue, change the wheel color to black to match the running gear, trim the interior in old used brown leather.







Hope you like, Im liking driving the new Banger....surprisingly swift now she is running properly!

 

Love it. Looks like fun

 

I love a simple ride. Great car!

 

thats a great looking ride!

 

AWESOME ride man....good job !!

 

Outstanding! Let's see more!!

 

Coolest little roadster of all time man!
Perfect...

Gomez.

 

Cool little roadster!!

 

Nice !

 

Nice score! Drive the hell out of it. Family first and include them with the car.
Start building those family memories from a young age.

 

That just looks great! You now have what I am only beginning to build... gee I'm jealous
And ya... go for the dark blue like Washington with a drop more of Black Ink, and most certainly the aged heavy leather!!
Just a thought for your wires, perhaps Tacoma Cream?
And remember the banger creed "to drive it, like ya own it"

 

Wow, great little roadster.

 

Nice and sporty and glad to see 28 A without a 32 grill/shell. Very cool. JW

 

I was watching that on ePay, but didn't have the coin

Awesome car, congrats

 

Very Nice!!! Enjoy!

 

I'll say "stupendous" since I didn't see that word used yet and it's appropriate. What a great little roadster, congrats and good luck with it.

 

If there was an automotive dictionary - that'd be under the defination of a Hot Rod

I love it

 

Nice old banger !!!!

 

one HELL of a cool hot rod

 

That's a good looking banger there

 

Neat, and the plans are good too.

 

very cool!!

 

You Son of a B%*^#!!!

Way nice!! Congrats, can't wait to see it in person.

Love it. I saw a video of the owner driving it up the street. Seemed real quick and sounded great. Glad a Hamber got it!!!

Does anyone do blue wheels with the blue body?
Start a new trend, might look great.
