Yeah Mike, you were right, the torque thrusts were a good choice.

Looking good.

Thanks guys! It seems that everytime I try to work on this '32, something goes awry! I think I have spent equal time under the bench looking for dropped parts and now that the interior is glue into the body and mounted to the chassis, the front windshield is coming off. What?! I'm starting to get some bad vibes here...

My '32 Ford Sedan Street Rod is complete and posted in Under Glass. I would like to thank all those who took the time to look at and to comment on this build.

Man! You move fast! What are your thoughts on doing a street rod?

[mrmike]

My thoughts on doing a street rod? I do have the '32 5-window coupe in my stash, so I will be doing that one at some point. For some reason, this one did not turn out as well as I had hoped for. I had a couple of issues with the Testors One Coat paint. It wasn't glossy enough for my liking and it took longer to dry than I am use to for lacquer paint. I found the front suspension to be a bit fiddily and some suspension componants had no real attachment points. I do like street rods or hot rods as I prefer to call them. I am more of a fan of 60's and early '70's muscle cars though. I built this street rod as a change of pace build...just something different to build.
