Jack Stewart's Roadster

Jack Stewart is an icon of the Southern California car scene and has become more widely known in recent years with the publication of books like LA Roadsters, A Retrospective and  The Jack Stewart Ford by author Rik Hoving. Jack is also known for his cars, particularly his 1932 Ford Roadster. This full-fendered classic is fitting for a man that sold many a '32 Ford part before he actually built this roadster in the early '70s. Jack would become a member of his beloved club, the LA Roadsters, in 1971, and would become a Lifetime Member in 2001. Over the years, he held many positions within the club, including President, and was a fixture at the annual LA Roadster Show.Jack's roadster is an original all steel body, with a small block Chevy between the rails. The roadster was recently converted to fuel injection, and the gauges were updated along with some other small details. An interesting note, when this car was originally built, it was with a custom built 3-link rear suspension - an unusual touch for its time.
