The Jalopy Journal
Agreed, it's not just an RPU cab as I'd initially expected. Perhaps, as someone suggested, a phaeton that's had the rear of the tonneau moved up...
Thanks @swifty ! Good information.
The image from the quote above and one I found using reverse image search. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I just started a separate thread elsewhere asking this same question: Anybody know this car and/or have rear views of it?
This appears to be the same car. I didn't realize it had a cowl vent. I also note that the back of the bucket doesn't look flat like a '28-'29 RPU...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here is the straight news: My Corvair needs something in the rear end. Probably wheel bearings, maybe a ring gear? Come drive...
[ATTACH] I've had this photo saved for a long time. I think it was taken in Australia. It appears to be a 1928 (no door handles) Ford Model A...
I think the easiest way would be to use a Banger-to-V8-trans adapter and use a '40-'48 transmission instead of the more typical '32-'39. In fact,...
Let's put it this way...the Henry J four-cylinder can use the same cylinder head as the Jeep flathead and they're both the same displacement as...
Wow. Embarrassing. Eighteen years and I've still never been back to the museum.
Great story. Cool car. I love those sugar-donut whitewalls.
I once sat in a chopped Deuce five-window that had a depression for your heels just around the pedals. Seemed pretty slick, at least sitting still.
Would that be the 9N/2N tractor engine and its stablemate used in '41 pickups?
Thanks, fellas! As a follow up: What color were these engines painted when stock?
Can anyone tell me if there are any aluminum or pot metal parts present in a stock ‘28 Chevrolet head? [ATTACH] I’ve held onto this one for...
Going back to a Hemi would be cool. So would a 413.
I have seen a few vintage sealed beams revived by cutting out the back and fitting a socket for a replaceable bulb, so if you're super attached to...
Finally, another shot in the spray vs brush war: [ATTACH]
[ATTACH] Of course, a lot of the coolest speed parts east of the Mississippi actually went on boats.
[ATTACH] "The 1928 method of fuel supply."
[ATTACH] Gear for putting a Chevy 3-speed in your Model T. I think this is circa 1924. Obviously not purely a hop-up, it would be a worthy mod...
[ATTACH] You read enough of these and suddenly you want a Chevy Superior in your life to mess with...
[ATTACH] The above was written for a national audience, not California specifically.

That Chevy roadster is a Robert Roof car. I have more of the story someplace around here. It's actually from old (like 1928) magazines on Google...
[ATTACH] Both of these cars used Willys 77 and Whippet parts.
[ATTACH] There were some legitimate road-and-race cars built interwar out here, but they were road-race specials built for ARCA competition in...
A lot of our modified cars here Back East ran more to self expression than dual-purpose road/race machines. Still fun stuff. [ATTACH]...
It says "Jeepland" on the hood in the photo. So I'm guessing Willys Wagon (Dana 25?) axles and the matching transfer case (Edit: Dana 18). Neat...
@eldiablooxidado did you ever get back to this one? I sure do like a gow-job T touring.
