    My buddy Mitch, here on the hamb has an A roadster, when he and his wife came to Billetproof in it they looked like they were having the time of there life. Yeah I got a little jealous. So month I ended up with a trade for a 27 touring T roadster without a top. Let me say I am not comparing the two models of cars, just the fact they are open. And I knew I would be selling it but was excited about driving a roadster around for a while. I have a Tudor and a couple months ago bought a stocker coupe. Well after four days of just going to work, hitting lunch, chasing parts etc. probably a hundred miles or so. I was kinda beat with the sun. That was a realization that unless it had a top, I have no interest in a roadster. And be honest how much fun would a roadster be with the top up?

    Here it is with my Grandpa sitting on the front tire. Quite a sweet little roadster. I vote the Coupe unless you find a 30/31 roadster, now those are better than the 28/29 in my opinion. Better flowing lines and a little beefier looking.

    The thing about it is, we don't have to worry about rain here.....As for the heat, when it is 115 degrees outside it is the same as snow to people in other areas of the country, we just don't really drive them too much (at least in the daylight), but for 8 or 9 months a year, it is ROADSTER weather here. Get the Roadster Brent, you KNOW you are dyin for it.....
     
  4. Damn it Kerry! I went over there today and drooled on it a little more. All day today I have been looking at ol skool roadsters on the internet. I gotta get that thing and maybe find a coupe body down the road to keep my coupe idea's burning. Why can't I have 1 of each!:rolleyes:

    I really like this one as well. Not a fan of the raw metal look however. Maybe flat black with red rims..............................kidding. A color of some sort though....

  11. I'de go roadster.....You ever own a convertable anything? I have a roadster currently,and got rid of a coupe,but that's just me.You can always wear a hat!
     
  12. I decided to keep the coupe. As it turns out the guy who owns the roadster would probably want some cash. So...I'll find a roadster later down the road and have both. ;)
