Some of the highlights of the NOS parts were, 34 front fender 32 grille shell, 35 and 36 coupe rears, 35-37 pickup front, 3 35 grilles, 3 36 grilles, 35 pickup grille, 40-41 pickup front. 2 33-34 pickup lower grille aprons, 37 coupe rear, some Model A fronts, and some good used sheet metal. The story I was told is that the guy who had this stuff bought these cars when they were just old used cars and kept them in not the best storage, most of the cars have rust issues do to two feet deep of racoon crap which cause floors to rust out completely. The 32 roadster has that problem, but I'm happy when I don't think about what I paid. When is the last time you've seen a 32 roadster that wasn't either street rodded or restored.
Paul,Is it a true standard roadster?
