Hot Rods Scored an 'A' Roadster project - Time to build a Hot Rod!

Real hot rodders can .. the "me too" gang can't ...

 

Great score. Nick.

Keep us posted as you build.

It seems that there are more 'A' coupes built then roadsters for some reason (probably lots of reasons why), but I have always been drawn to the 'A' roadsters first.

Great find, good luck with the build.

Congrats, looks like a project to be proud of to me.

 

Great find, have fun building it and keep posting as you make progress. Hope you can get it running for spring.

 

Hey Nick, looks like you have some fun in front of you. A year ago, I couldnt have given a rats ass about a project like that. (guess I've always been a muscle car guy-not any more). NOW, since I found this damn website & went to the Goodguys in Des Moines, I'm Hooked. Would love to come around this winter & check out what's going on with your project. Works almost done for the summer & I'm looking forward to long days & nites working on the '55 project. Congrats on the "A". Dan

 

From what I've been told, yes. I've seen a few sets of them for sale here and elsewhere on the web. It looks like they normally sell for 1 to 1-1/2 times what I paid for the engine + parts (including manifolds)

Me, too!

Dan, you are welcome to stop over - just send me a PM. Also, I'd love to come check out your '55 gasser project!
