Technical Vern/Tardel Highboy

Does anyone know what year or style hood was used on the Highboy roadster?

 

What is the mystery? Looks like stock top halves to me.

That guy has built many roadsters. Which one?

 

My question is; is the hood a 32` or 30` hood halves? This is the blue highboy roadster on the cover of the "How to build a Highboy Roadster"

 

His book "How to Build a Traditional Hot Rod" has a blue 29 roadster on it, and that car has a custom one-piece hood top. Nothing stock Ford about it.

 

'32 hood tops end at the bead's edge... the '30-'31 hood tops end about 2" below the beads...
