Re: Seen better days Roadsters photos postings
I see a part off the handbrake and the holes from the clutch and brake cylinders, must be absolutely a roadster.
Horsepower is how hard you hit the wall,torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Re: Seen better days Roadsters photos postings
Thanks Steve for posting the Arkansas example.
I wasn't sure where I kept that photo but knew I had shared that critter on here.
Here's one I picked up in Washington, DC for about $100, supposedly with a cracked block. It was a popped freeze plug, I later discovered. The city was after the owner for several hundred dollars in unpaid parking tickets and they could no longer get license plates. I bought it as a parts car but never needed much off it. When I lost this "storage," it was time to move it along.
These shots are of the new owner's coming to fetch it from the garden barn/lean-to, where it shared space with about a dozen derelict lawn mowers. I understand he fixed it, painted it and was rolling around northern Virginia.

Re: Seen better days Roadsters photos postings
So many roadsters i see here, yet non where i live. I wish i could find another 70 roadster for parts, and at a cheap price. Last time i saw a 1970 2000 for $2000 and it didn't even run.

Re: Seen better days Roadsters photos postings
Why specifically a 1970? Most of the parts from 68 - 70 interchange easily - the exceptions being some of the lighting and wiring.jcd0402 wrote: So many roadsters i see here, yet non where i live.

Re: Seen better days Roadsters photos postings
Yes, muttley showed up on Ebay last year. I did not follow the listing so not sure if it sold. Hopefully it got put out of it's misery and will live on in various other cars via parts. Except of course for the fugly front end. What was some one thinking??
