crazyjim Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Here's my '36 Ford convertible. I thought it would be a roadster, but the box says convertible. It's finished in HOK burgundy kandy over orion silver basecoat. Big & little Pegasus wheels, frenched taillights, highback bucket seats and a console. I left the hood sides off to better view the all chrome TBird engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petetrucker07 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Beautiful. I love this year, the last year of the stand alone headlights. Paint looks great, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent G Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Love the colors! If I recall correctly a roadster, by defination, has a removable top and windshield. This could be more accurately described as a convertible as such. Somebody more knowledgeble will chime in I'm sure..... G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what my limited knowledge has to offer . Great looking 36 Jim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne swayze Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Very nice! Nice touches like the red accent in the bumpers and knock-offs and valve stem caps! Really like the fuel lines, and the colour and wheels make this especially a great looking car. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Anderson Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Very nicely done! FWIW, the difference between the Monogram kit and a "convertible" (Ford still termed this body stye "Cabriolet) and a "roadster" is that roadsters did not have rollup side windows, but rather they still used snap-on side curtains for inclement weather. In keeping with tradition, Ford's roadsters, 1933-36 used a bolt-on windshield frame that was chrome plated, while their last couple of years of roadsters had windshields built integral with the cowling in much the same manner as a cabriolet (convertible) and 4dr convertible sedans.
