History The John Collins Roadster

Nice early car. I like T's on 32 frames.

 

Thats bitchen

 

Very cool! Reminds me a little of @curbspeed rpu

 

It makes me dream,,,,

 

Pretty slick

 

Very cool. Like seeing these old hot rod racers.

 

That would be a fun car to replicate.. love it

 

It's tough to beat a '26/'27 roadster pickup. When did hairpins start showing up on cars? This has to be one of the earliest examples I've seen. Thanks for sharing.

 

Whenever I see the Collins T RPU I think that is how I should build mine but then I wouldn't want to sell it.

 

Prewar, mostly on midgets and Indy cars. There were some Prewar roadsters & modifieds run at the lakes using hairpins, most were made from model T wishbones.

 

Who wants to trade a ‘25 T roadster body for ‘26 ? ...in Hawai’i. Haha
