Bill Neumann's 1931 Ford Roadster Introduction Many of us have been through this at least once. You find a good project car, buy it, work hard to turn it into something outstanding, sell it for whatever reason, and at some point end up wanting to buy it back. After being contacted by the original builders of these cars, I decided to add a section on the site that provided information on how to contact them, in the hope that these lost hot rods can find their way home. The car was stored for several years and was then sold around 1980.
Gene has no records of the sale.
The car was last believed to be in Pittsburgh. Bill Neumann's 1931 Ford Roadster Bill built his roadster using a 1931 roadster body that was channeled nine inches over a 1932 frame, with the grille sectioned three inches. It had a 1958 Chevy engine, white upholstery, and red lacquer paint. He had it until 1965 or 1966 and sold it to someone else in Las Cruces. Unfortunately, he moved to Florida right after selling it and does not remember who bought it.
