I am 5'8" and have a '31 Deluxe Roadster that I fit just fine. I also have small feet which helps with getting in and out of it. I think a 30-31 Roadster is one of the best looking of all the Model A's but understand, this is just my opinion.

I also have a 30 Tudor I use for long distance touring and a Vicky that is my "around the town" Model A.

Large people have a tougher time with a roadster.

Recently, I have seen for sale several, what appears to me to be, very nice roadsters that are ready to drive in the 20-25K price range. You can eat up a lot of money in a big hurry with a car that needs a lot of work.

Keep looking, one will crop up in your area that will be the right car for you.

My opinion,

Chris W.
