It's a 1931 DeLuxe Roadster. The chrome tailpipe extension probably came from Western Auto. Too soon for J.C. Whitney junk. That chrome piece makes this car a deLuxe DeLuxe!

Nothing better than a '31 Deluxe Roadster with a rear spare.

Gary -
I remember yours in the Phoenix area in 1974 at the Phoenix Giants semi-pro baseball game, where people who attended that day with Model A's got to see the game for free. I had my 1928 Roadster there, shortly before setting off for Germany with it.

I don't remember who won the baseball game that day, but I do remember your Roadster! 'Made my '28 Roadster look like cheap chopped chicken liver.
