Nice clean build. Love the paint and tyres.

Ditto on what he said, also love the sunken tail lights and front turn signals, may have to borrow both of those ideas.  As far as engine wiring, I fought that for a while but, it really does make a difference, especially when you have the engine open like this one. When I first joined a club I used to threaten to glue all my hoods shut because the guys wouldn't leave me alone about engine wiring, now it's Bare Metal Foil, it never ends. I like your little piston shifter knob also, is that a kit item? Haven't built the 5-window yet but, it's on my list. I like your diorama too!  Nice work.

Ron,thanks for the nice comments.The shifter is included in the kit, I think those two details you pointed out is going to be brought up at our next club meeting,may even bring some extra engines to wire and scrap bodies to BMF and have members show how they do it.Thanks also to those who recently commented on the '32 it is well appreciated.

Another nice 32 Ford! Great color - really stands out!

As for wiring, get an aftermarket prewired distributor and you're half done. The hemi is easy to wire because the plugs are on top of the heads. Drill four holes in each heads, trim the wires to length, and stick them in the holes, and you're done.
