"A"  for effort, but....    🤨     I'm surprised it's won so many awards.  😬

I get why it's called a 'Cabin' Speedster. I really like it's 1929 looks. It would look equally as cool as a roadster.

In the video, it sounds so cool; but the rear exhaust hangs too low. 

Fantastic choice John, You Da MAN!

Having built a 1929 Model A Roadster High Boy, I can appreciate a closed car like this for the fact that it can be driven on inclement weather days. The workmanship and creativity are superb and I can see why it has garnered much recognition at shows. Thanks for sharing this John.

It is amazing how many kit and project cars begin with a VW Beetle chassis. This one was more successful than most and reflects 1929 well.  The workmanship is excellent.
