Nice looking 32. I like the idea of building this with your dad. With the recent loss of my mom I am encouraging my dad to get back into model building for therapy. I wish he wasn't 500 miles away so I could work side by side with him.
BTW: Since you are doing things like retaining the cowl vent and such I will assume (I know) that you are making this a fairly stock bodied project. If so, make sure you add a drip rail above the rear door. I made a delivery out of a sedan eons ago and was very proud of my accomplishment only to over hear someone at a contest remark "too bad he didn't add the drip rail, just doesn't look right!"
