1928 Ford High-Boy Roadster
Yesterday I hung out with friends at the car show and later at the "Cruise The Puyallup Loop" night. Weather was in the 80s.
This is a real 1928 Ford Roadster High-Boy steel body car. This belongs to my friend Junior Nelson, world famous hall of fame pinstriper. Junior is related to my buddy's wife. He can be seen sitting behind his car. Yes he's still striping cars. Said he just completed two cars recently.
Yes, of course it has a 392 Hemi in it! And custom pinstriping, like the diff cover, trunk and dash.
I should of asked him for a picture of the inside of the trunk lid..he has the whole thing full of autographs. Including Wally Parks, John Force, Warren Johnson, Darrel Alderman, Gene Winfield and a few rock-n-roll guys to name a few.
**I'll link a video in the comments for those interested in seeing the trunk**
**You can see the trunk and autographs in this old video about 4 minutes in...**

Perfect weather, good friends and great cars. What could be better ! :)
Wow! Nice!!
I absolutely love this High-Boy steel body Roadster!
Tastefully done.
A High-Boy and it's artist with history.
Great Video... Thanks for Sharing :)
Thanks for the comments. It a cool car and he's a really nice guy. I love to sit around and hear his stories. Here's a piece he did for me recently for his daughter in law's (think that's the right term?) birthday..
