Slightly different hot rod

[Guest Gramps-xrds]

Thought you might like to see something a little different. It started as a chevy cabriolet with a highly modified 32 switchers top added.

Gramps,

I LIKE it! A really nice build.

[Jairus]

WOW, there is a lot of cool going on there!

Love the pipes.

Love the Nail head motor.

Love the Cheater slicks and have to echo the first request... where did you get them?

[Greg Cullinan]

That's a very cool build. Every detail you added is just more cool points on top of what was already a cool concept.

I'm glad you guys like it. The headers are Jo-Han mopars. The cheater slicks are prob 40 yr old pie crusts (You got these in all the kits then) that I cut on a drill with a razor saw.

Outstanding! A '32 that's not a Ford - that's rare! Great detailing and paint, and the headers are way cool!

Looks cool awsome build and not many early chevys made in kit form

The headers are the fenderwell units from the JoHan Mopes, the ones from the 64 Dodge I would imagine, they're in the 64 Dodge "Recharged"kit. The body is the old MPC 32 chevy Cabriolet with the roof added! I know caz I gave him the idea! But HIS turned out REALLY GREAT. Me, and Chuck Most are building one too, but seein as how i can't post pics You'll just hafte see theirs to get the idea of what we were tryin to accomplish. Gotta admit his DID come out really nice, din't it? Great build, Bill, as usual!

I love the color!!!! great looking hot rod.

[Fletch]

Excellent build from one end to the other. A lot of work to convert the Roadster into a coupe. Color combinations work extremely well together. One to be proud of for sure.

[Brokentail58]

Nice hot rod. I love the pipes.

[Guest Gramps-xrds]

Thanks guys for the nice comments. They're very much appreciated. Now that I managed to make a chevy coupe, I'm thinkin bout maybe tryin to convert something else into a chevy. Haven't figured out what yet though. Maybe a sedan or phaeton.

[george 53]

Cool Bill! See ya jus needed a little out side stimulus ta get the ol creative juices flowin Daddy-O!!!

[Tony T]

Nice build, Bill!

And now for something somewhat different ! I noticed thr Front wheels are from a '32 Ford ? Is this build on a Ford Chassis ? It has the everyday SBC , well done version . I like the pie crust tires . Nice build . Thanx ..

[John Teresi]

Super super cool!!!!!......great job.

Thanks John and others. It IS sitting on a 32 ford frame with ford wheels, but rather than the buggy spring suspension I made duel leaf springs like chevy's used. It's not a SBC though John, it's a nailhead Buick:lol:

[dimaxion]

Ooops .. I was wrong , really wrong . I thought this was another Ho - Hum . Thank you for the Original Idea . Tha nx ..
