Say.... my buddy Larry Tholen runs the Rockne Registry. He would like you to contact him with the data about your Rockne (if'n you want to).

Ok here are some more updated pictures. In about 1 month (hopefully) the finished pictures will be posted!!!! Enjoy (i know i am).

 

Gorgeous! Love the blown 289.

Next project (down the road). Just scored (3) 32/33 Rockne Roadsters. This is how I received them. I hear there pretty rare. They came with a few goods.

So Many Visions & Choices??? HMMMM

Can anyone identify the Artiliary wheels? ( I checked the artiliary wheels post with no luck and cant seem to find any hubcaps to fit (they hole is 8" exact)

 

This is so cool i was just talking about my bro frist car it was a rockne and no one knew what it was got to look for pictures this was 1949 when he had it

 

I think the Rockne Registry says they're only aware of one convertible.

 

well make that 4 i guess!

 

I know where 4 more of them are...

 

What's this "Rockne Registry" that's been mentioned? Would contacting them maybe help me find a windshield frame?

Love those wig-wag lights

 

I have a window frame. It's a little rough, but it's only metal! I also have a 3 W coupe body and doors if you or anyone is interested. It's not too bad of shape mostly your typical surface rust.
