Larry… Back in the Mid 80's I was a WD for ART MORRISON and HARWOOD. Part of my Art Morrison initial WD Order was 3- '27 Ford Roadster Chassis Kits, One Moly Strut Front End the other 2 Mild Steel Torsion Bar with an Axle, all 4 link. With my HARWOOD WD Order was a '27 Harwood Roadster Body which I still have along with the Art Morrison Moly 4 link Chassis Kit. One of lives curve balls sidelined the Roadster Project, but still hung on to it all. I retained my WD Status on both Product Lines well into the 90's. I would have to dig to find the Blueprints, but know I should still have them. Back in that period of time (80's) the '27 Roadsters were popular in Super Gas and Comp. Companies like Art Morrison, Spitzer, Zeeker, Suncoast and Alston all had kits available. I remember the period Art Morrison catalogue had detailed 3D pictures, I might still have one. Also there was a series of Super Stock Magazines that had detailed articles of construction of a '27 Roadster owned by Mendy Fry, built by her Dad in the late 80's. Chris Alston Chassisworks still sell '27 kit. You have my email address. Hope this helps... Maurice.
