Thread: Brookville Roadster Body

Tweet

Don,
When I ordered my '31 Brookville, they were quoting 3-4 months thru my dealer. I got a call from him 3-4 WEEKS later to come to his shop to pick it up. What it is now that they are building the '32 roadster PLUS the 3w coupe - who knows?? They had some product last year at NSRA York.

Don, why not come up to the York Nats and pick one up?? Maybe you can buy one anad have them bring it to York. They do it for other folks. Besides, York Nats is about 3 times as many vehicles and 5 times as many vendors as Tampa. Might be fun! Only a mere 1000 miles north of Fort Myers.

If not, just don't order one with artillery wheels and you won't have to worry about shipping times.

Artilliary wheels, forgot about that fiasco!

We kicked around going to Ohio to pick one up, but at $ 4 a gallon it is way cheaper to ship via truck these days, so York would be the same. Towing a trailer makes it even more expensive, but generally I do like to go get stuff myself.

My wife's parents are coming up from the Tampa area for the York Nats. It's a shame that they don't have enough room on their trailer (along with their 39Ford) to be able to haul a body home for you.

We've been trying to talk them out of coming. I figure it's going to cost them about $500 in gas for the trip up and back and that doesn't include food and lodging along the way. I told them I would send pictures and they could just send the money to me. Less wear and tear on the vehicles and their old bodies. Their response can not be printed here.

I understand Bob.......when I had In Laws I also did anything I could to delay their yearly visits.
