This is a 29. its from hamb member (29cabby) HERES THE LINK TO HIS PICS http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/album.php?albumid=20767
I'll look for pics and post them when I get to my regular computer. I am building a '29 cabriolet myself. ...but will keep the four banger. Over the years I have seen only a couple Model A rodded cabriolets, none with chopped tops. The big difficulty with chopping a cabriolet would be making the landau irons fit right after cutting the top down. To make everything fit, you would likely need to make new, shorter landau irons.
just a deuce cabby found in my 2011 pics I thought I took a few pics of a 1930, 68B at Pleasanton this last year, but have not found it yet. This is from the Aug. 2010 West Coast Nationals, a '31 68B: ...going back a few years more: I was sure I had more pics of Model A cabriolets, but this seems to be about it. My own '29 is not together yet, so no pics of it here.
Here's some 28-31 Model A Cabriolet's from my saved pic's.Hope they help.The black cabriolet w/tan top was in Street Rodder years ago.Not sure of the year or month.
Slick, only photos 4 & 5 appear to be of cabriolets. The other two cars appear to be based on a sport coupe or similar body style. All the Model A cabriolet bodies were built for Ford by Briggs Mfg. Co. and are quite different. That said, I really like the style of that first car.
I haven't logged on in a while (forgot my password) I can send you some pics of my car if you want tomorrow. what are you looking for exactly? I also have all the top parts.
