    Thanks. Pat this is a hard top, but funny the top is plastic, but the rest of the body is metal. I guess you could run it as a roadster too! The picture I posted was off the web, but identical to mine, except for a white circular sticker with 20 on it for a price tag. Couldn't believe the box was in such good shape. Also, after reader the instructions last night it was very cool to see it assembles mostly with little screws, only using glue for the plastic detail pieces. The guy also had a Dodge Ram Van model. (No idea why, as it didn't fit his collection of other stuff early 30's. He also had a box of miscellaneous tail light lens, and a 50's style inside control arm spot light, which was a mirror on the back side and light in front.
