Technical The Hawaiian Survivor 32 Roadster

I love it. Great car, The floor mats have got to go though.

Amen, my very thoughts when I read this had happened to Jim's car.
Too much money, no sense of the car or history, and money being the driving factor when it was sold with no regard as to who was getting it. Just f......g senseless

 

Nope, not the counterpart... the fenders aren't moulded in and the beltline reveal that goes down the back of the body is still there.

But take a look at the new HRM... I think the counterpart is in the "Survivor" section... it looks a lot more like the Hawaii one...

To see what the car looked like a couple years ago, before a few subtle changes were made, check my old post

Not to worry. The car is undestroyed and is more complete than when I got it. I have found original valve covers and exhaust headers. The previous owner took it to a rod shop and took all the original running gear out and put in disks,4 bar, etc. I have a dropped and filled heavy and lincolns to go back. The body was in very bad shape. **** Smith made some panels for it(Ford museum car). Tweety will live!

 

thank you andy !

 

I like any Deuce roadster!

 

I found it... I think this could be it's 2500 mile twin. It was built back in the day, and aside from the head rests, floor mats, and dash it's pretty cool...

 

I certainly won't be doing that to mine.

I plan to make a roadster "version" of my coupe (avatar) leaving it pretty much as is (styling wise).

 

I like it. Gary

 

It looks like a few changes made since 2007 when this post started and the paint hasn't aged well at all. But the car runs great the steering box needs to be gone through. We had the car out at the Dirt Drags in Monta Vista Colorado this year and up at the George town Hill Climb. A hard bump sent something into the fan or the frame flexed enough that we lost the radiator at the hill climb.

 

Hawaii? any more East than that, and you will be back in LA.

 

I'm really starting to like the look of fenders on roadsters now. Except for how high the headlights sit
