Hello:

Are you a relative of Dick's.

I would like to know how to see these photos of Dick's roadster. I knew Dick Courtney from the time I was a kid in the 1950's until his death in 1992. I worked with him in the summers on my dad's asphalt paving crew (Stanford Truck and Paving) in Orange County ,California, specifically, Buena Park.

Back in the 1950's I recall Dick coming over in his roadster (the first one) and seeing him peel out in front of the house. I even went for a ride in that car. My dad and him would take off and not return for hours.

One summer, must have been 1959, I was just 16 years old and we were doing a paving job at a local elementary school (McComber School). I drove my 1949 Mercury to work that day. Well, there was a running track, probably a 1/4 track, on the field. Dick asked me if he could take my Merc for a ride around that track. I saw nothing wrong with this so he hopped into the driver's side and I rode shotgun. My God! He had my '49 mercury going sideways around the curves with the front wheels turned opposite to the direction we were going. Dick got a laugh out of seeing me react to this trip. Every time I saw him, up until he passed away, we would get a laugh out of that experience. I wish we could go back to those days.

The last time I saw Dick was at my dad's funeral in Sept. 1992. Dick passed away shortly after that.

I noticed that his last roadster was just auctioned off (Aug 12-14, 2010) . See http://new.rmauctions.com/CarDetails.cfm?SaleCode=MO10&CarID=r308

Darn. I wonder what it sold for?

 

Dick Courtney's Number 3 Roadster sold for $57,200 at auction in August 2010.

 

Here's a shot of one of our club members in 1959 with his roadster , that was originaly built in 1948by Dick Courtney with help from Frank Currie. This is an original Hallock windshield.

 

Lets see if we can get some more pictures of the Courtney cars.
Is this picture of Dick Roseberry?

 

Does anyone know where the #2 Courtney car is today??

 

There was a article in the late 80's I believe,.. on Dick and all 3 of the roadsters,.. I can't remember if it was in Street Rodder or Rod Action. These were really killer Hot Rods,.. with a really great look, profile & stance (The "Trifecta" of Hot Rodding)

( * with the exception of the hood top,... IMHO *)

 

Took these pics on Friday at the SOCAL open house of Jackie Howertons 32 Hallock roadster. Its the only 32 that hallock ever put one of his windshield on.

just finished. finished the day before LARS weekend.

 

That looks great ruralrod!!!

 

The Halllocks are just incredible shields, keep the pictures coming. Great thread !

 

Been shown here many times. Mine with a Rob Miller copy. He don't make them anymore though.

 

Here is my 1928 roadster on 1932 frame I built 2009. I bought the Halloc windshield from Steve Sellers in 2003. The rest is all Henry Ford parts.

 

love the roadsters with the hallocks

 

One of my favorites our long time family friend larry Gheno built this A about 10 years ago and really never took it to any shows or let the car be recognized for what it deserved the fit and finish is top notch and some of the details such as the rear bumper, 37 tube axle was very rare when he chose to use it along with the police speedo he decided to sell it i believe last fathers day and it is now for sale on ebay by Kirk white

 

Just thought I would bump this back up to the top after a long hibernation... Thinking Hallocks today! Other than Seller's loose copy, is there anybody else out there that is reproing a true hallock frame these days? Since I stepped for the Halibrands, I think my little truck kinda needs a Hallock...

 

It's a loose copy, but "endlessearth"s little '29 hung around my joint here for quite a bit and rubbed me exactly the right way...

 

bump

 

Zibo style...

 

Hey Neal, See any simularities between "endlessearth"s car and Zibo's red dot?

 

Steve Sellers

 

Yes, I did notice some...
