Thread: Good '32 Roadster kit, where to go?

Tweet

Street Rod by Michael and N&N. No mention of AC (Antique and Collectible) cars....

Michaels base roller goes for a bit shy of $16K and N&N for $13,200

Once I'm done with some upgrades, engine, tranny, paint and install what should I be talking?

Just curious because it seams there are a lot of mid $30K '32 Roadsters available for sale. Can I build one for less then that using Michael or N&N?

If you do everything that you can yourself, use a takeout engine & tranny freshened up, salvage yard rear gears, etc you might come close but it you vary from your plan and start buying new stuff your price will skyrocket. I think you can probably buy a roadster a lot cheaper than you can build the comparable car today. I was at GoodGuys today and Speedway had their roadster "kit" there - comes with frame & body painted, ready for final assembly, interior pieces, seat, etc. Look that them - it's a complete deal, like Bob said before. On N&N you want their "premium" roller. The only difference is polished parts - front end, rear four bar, etc for $1000 more - cannot beat that deal.
