: Michael,
: How well preserved is the Coupe?Is it original paint, upholstery, etc?How many miles show on the odometer?
: I know it's a long shot, but if it is a decent original example the approach to everything should be considered carefully.If this applies I'd be more than happy to share the appropriate info to enhance (as opposed to restore) your car.
: Let me know,

After I posted my first message I relized the car is called a 1928 Roadster. The car was purchased New by my Wife's Grandmother.The Car was last driven by My wife's uncle in 1956 for his college home coming.It was parked in the gargage shortly after and not moved till we moved the car to our house in June of 1997.It has 56,700 original miles.The original seats have been worn out and covered with canvas. The orginal top has been replaced by one my wife's granfather constructed and it was painted yellow at some point in time (We were told it was black originaly).Therumble seat is gone along with the rear mounted spare tire and the wing windows.The body is in good condition as well as the wheels.I can't tell about the internal components.As you can see, it is not a well preserve car but one that has more senamental value than preservation value and, we hope, fun for another generation in the family this will hold true.
