With that light-colored top, it must be an early 1928 Roadster before Ford switched to a black top on open cars. I wonder why Ford changed top colors in 1928? Most likely the black top was cheaper than the tan one = more profit for FoMoCo per vehicle. "A penny saved here, a penny saved there - made Henry a multi-millionaire!"
