    A buddy bought a Speedway Lo-Boy at a local swap meet (complete car). I never saw any problem with the body. In fact, it was a pretty nice little car once he got everything sorted from what the previous owner had done.

    Go see it! Yeah,it's not going to happen now since I missed 10 weeks of work this winter.That devoured my hot rod fund after I fell on ice and tore both rotators and smoked my left thumb. 3 surgeries later I still am easing back doing carpentry. Sometimes being self employed really ****s. It is a sweet deal and could make some coin flipping it.But?

    It is cool with a flatty in her though. That's a vin plate.

    It doesn't cost anything to look.

    Nice looking car and seems like fair price but if I was to buy it I would eventually be changing out wheels, seat, front and rear turn signals on spreader bars and maybe even complete steering system to make it even more traditional..!!

    I'd put a bench with distressed leather and I like big headlights as well.those are my favorite wheels but a set of steelies would be cool for a changed look once in a while.

    Is it actually ***led/registered as a 32 Ford? Not trying to be a smart***, but I don't see any original 32 parts on it. It's a great looking Roadster but seems to be more of a replica

    The ad say 21k/BO. If it’s what you want, seems there’s some wiggle room on the price and seller is open to negotiate.
    To be honest, gl***/steel/reproduction hot rods or restored vehicles, I don’t care. If they look nice and you buy it, then as the saying goes “miles of smiles”.
