Julia and Cecil McKay's 1950 Dodge Wayfarer convertible coupe Slow and steady but when you look so good, who needs speed. PHOTOGRAPHER : Cecil McKay REMARKS AND/OR STORY : In 1956, we honeymooned in our 1950 Dodge Roadster. In 1993, we purchased a nearly identical Roadster in Enterprise, Oregon. There were only 2800 of these cars built and they cost $1800 new. A number of them met their fate in Helldriver Shows, since they were so cheap. No body work was needed, but it did need a good paint job. Barnum & Tenny did the paint. Not all chrome needed it, but we did re-chrome some pieces. When we got it back it was beautiful. They took over a year, but it was worth the wait. Jose’s Interiors replaced the top and did some interior work. Jose’s has, now, replaced all the interior with red and white leather on seats, kick panels, ect. to make car more original.
