Re: New 28 Sport Coupe
Nice car! You will be the coolest Gunny on base. Even better than the officers with fancy sports cars

Re: New 28 Sport Coupe
Man, I love 'em in that condition. I agree with Newshirt. I wish I could find one locally. Any body style, really, but the Sports Coupes are special! Good on you.

Re: New 28 Sport Coupe
Thanks all for the comments. My apologies in advance for the knuckle-headed questions I'll be asking...remember, I'm a Marine, so use small words...lol.
For al's28/33: I haven't torn it down enough to look for numbers, but there is a suspiciously crisp date stamp on the firewall - 8/29/28. Engine serial falls in Aug 1930. |
