This was based on an old Hot Rod magazine feature headed 'Joe Nitti's purple deuce' built way back in the 1970s and probably looks nothing like the real car, neither a Hi or Lo 

I used what had. Monogram Continental hub caps, Revells Blue Streak tyres, side pipes from Li'l Coffin plus long forgotten other parts. It was also my first attempt at a spray job using real car paint and primers.

Hope you like it, I still have it :)

That's a neat roadster you've made. Add a windshield, and a spreader bar at the front frame horns and it looks pretty close.

Thanks :)I always thought Nitti's roadster was one of the purest and cleanest designs. I did once have the lights but never put a windshield on mine. My white interior was just Duplicolour primer and is as white today as when I first sprayed it.
