A Mysterious ’32 Roadster

A couple of days ago, the above (and below) ’32 roadster was posted on Reddit by the owner’s son. Apparently, he is not a car guy so the image comes with very little context. I read through the entire thread and only two pieces of information really stuck out:

1. The original color of the car was yellow.
2. The owner was pals with Blackie Gejeian.

What’s interesting is that this is pretty obviously a very well built car… and yet, I’ve never seen it before. I don’t think it was featured anywhere… And I’m wondering if anyone out there recognizes it. If you do, speak up!
