Hot Rods wtf is- was this thing ?

for sale havent seen it in person guy claims its rare and only 12,ooo made , looks like a homade pos to me w roadster rearend ? anyone know what it was

 

RollsKanhardly ?

 

it's a early 30's coupe/cut roadster with a later 30's windshield section grafted onto it...

 

A Frankenrat?

 

looks like there was 12,000 too many made !!!!!!!

 

Dare to be different.

 

it's a 30/31 model a coupe with a 40's windshield welded on it.

 

Could it be a Henway?...I thought only 5 of those were made...
unless its the mythical Aerosportroadster model.



oh come on now

damn I need to go to the garage....

 

Somebody else's future project?

Sent from my office while I should be working.

 

I vote for FUGLY.

 

My old pal Frankie, would call that "A flaming turd"

 

Grille's '46 Packard; hood side is '38 Chevy; body looks as Henry29 said '30-31 A but the cowl looks wider than it should be - maybe the body was widened to fit that windshield ('37 Ford?) and frame (ditto?). Lotsa luck if you buy it - the build thread should be, uh... entertaining.

 

Wheres that guy that was whining about the cookie cutter hot rods when we need him?

 

not interested in buying it was wanting to educate the current owner as to what it actually is so hes not roping some poor soul into thinking they really have something special

 

Oh it's special alright !
A Rat rod before they were called rat rods

 

Yeah, its a rat rod

 

Prehistoric rat rod.

 

I kinda like it.
Not enough to buy it tho.

 

p.o.s.!!

 

It kind of looks like a Denbeigh Super Chauvinist to me.

 

Looks like they were going somewhere with it,, too bad it was the wrong way. Rod

 

I like it.

 

Looks like the guy can't express himself very well in words. I think, he's talking about the body and not what it's morphed into.

CRUISER

 

It's not a roadster though, just a model a coupe with the roof cut off.

 

a thing of beauty is a joy forever, a pos is always a pos...that is a pos

 

It would look fantastic in flames the real ones 5 gallons of gas and a lighter

 

I could fix that!!!!!

 

it may be a sin to crush old tin but at some point you should just put the poor thing out of everyones misery..... depending on the cost a guy might do ok parting it out , id take the grill and the wire wheels for the right price

 

I don't think you guys are looking at the same photo I did. I saw a vintage (? I hope) build with a rolling flathead powered chassis. look at the step up after the firewall. looks like some good stuff.

 

look at the nose. looks like it had a nose with maybe that grille in it. look at the frame
