    Thanks for the kind words Ryan. The HAMB played a huge role in getting this car together.

    That's a great looking roadster. How come you didn't run the knobblies on the beach - would have thought they would be perfect for that?

    Ah, right, would have churned the course up too much I guess. Looks like you had fun anyway!

    Sad to see rods sold,I've sold off all my others builds too,but still have my first one,a 1928 also.
    I have a thing about 28/9 A Roadsters,being as it was the first roadster I ever built back 1959,collected parts for almost 2 years before that and got running end of 59. Was fun watching ya do the work,thanks for posting that good stuff.

    I was sad to sell it at first , but I have to sell one to build one. I enjoy building them more than driving them. Since I've already started on my 27 roadster and have made a deal for a 34 I think I'll get over it!
    Please send me a pic of your roadster. I'd love to see it. -Ray

    Cabriolet = roll up window roadster. Not shure if they made them in 28-29.

    You might be talking about a sport coupe?

    Alright, a 34 build to follow, provide the link to the new build.
    So what was the color on the roadster you sold, custom blend or? Thinking it might look good on my 34 sedan. Was it a brown or more maroon?
