This 29 A Ford Roadster was the third rebuild
of this car the second being the Hiboy Roadster.
What you see in the photo is as far as I got
with the Rod. This Photo was taken at the Albury Rod Run in about 1977.
.While the Rod was still in the Hiboy state a
new chassis was built up using independent suspension front & rear
and when the chassis was finished the body ,engine and transmission were
transferred over. After finishing to the condition above the car was driven
around for a short while
then in a moment of weakness and a lack of funds
the car was sold for $3500 to Neil Ide who finished it.
