    Not sure what '60s Roadsters are supposed to look like as I was busy raising a family & a few trips to SA & SEA. I built this based on what I remembered & liked, though I did make a hood, wheel & tire change.

    How about something like this! Would like to see a side shot of the car.

    It is actually proved to be difficult to find 33/34 roadsters by search in that period. I don't have mags so I rely on search which is vast...but like many searchs sometimes
    things don't pan out. That 34 you posted is a Brazilian Hotrod with minimal pics of side profiles.

    Best side pics from links but there are others. Not side but great detail shots. The second link is another language but you can choose english to read stuff.

    Wow what I am getting from this is guys who build 34 roadsters are afraid to step outside the restoration box. Seems all they ever get painted is maroon or black.

    The Winfield one is interesting.

    That is more like it!

    I like the purple paint and gold leaf pinstripes.

    They are 24 bucks for an 8x10 it seems real tuff to find pics again but the plate says 1961

    I like the half highboy cycle fender look myself. It has open hood sides with that lakes/torque tube header sticking out...theres a lot to see maybe send him an email he might have other angles or know of the owner at the time.

    Hamber @ evans & 3 97s also had a 34 roadster in 61 by the name of
    CONFUSION 34 roadster
    He has not been on here in quite a while maybe someone has pics of his drag 34

    This is another roadster with some period evidence in background...
    not a shiny showcar but representative of the drag go fast stance of the time.

  14. Wait a minute! I thought all old Ford hot rods were "roadsters".

    No help with roadsters but we did two cabriolets for the same customer. Tan one is bone stock Henry and blue one is a HAMB unfriendly modified.

    :rolleyes:...This is a sample of Joe Stevens photography and yes it's a Coupe but a Roadster version along these lines would pretty cool, somewhat like a 30s take aka period 60s of Squirrel's Plan B...

    No haven't started on it yet. Still gathering pieces. Busy working on my CJ7 and a T bucket project as well as the thousand other things a guy has to do.
