    I see pictures on Facebook at Good Guys Columbus of what appears to be the Bill Metz/Bill's Rod And Custom 32 roadster repainted black with a red interior. I dreamed of owning that car when Bill had it and was ready to buy but I was never in the right place. I'd love to get it my shop. I'd strip it down, repaint it the original Ford truck red with a buckskin interior and return it to what it was. It is one of the original ride um hard and put um up wet hot rods. Some hot rods have historical significance if you've been doing this as long as I have and should be left as they were built. This is such a hot rod. Send it to Nebraska where it'll have a good home. The doors open. Addendum. Bill had his struggles toward the end but if he left nothing else his roadster was his legacy.

    I remember that roadster. You are right, it looked best as was.

  5. I always loved his roadster, but Bill himself is (or was) a piece of work.

    That's it. Unfortunately it's now black with a red interior.
