Ace-Garageguy Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Built Merc flathead, hydraulic brake conversion, chopped windshield frame. You don't get any more authentic than this. NOT a rat-rod, but a period-perfect hot-rod, in progress, daily driver. Edited June 23, 2014 by Ace-Garageguy
slusher Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Nice that its a Ford family engine instead of a Chevy...
afx Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I love vintage hot rods and they don't get much better than a '32 hi-boy.
Speedfreak Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 That's beautiful, man, it just looks soooooooooooooooo ready to drive! That is if the box of parts in the passenger floor aren't needed!
Ace-Garageguy Posted June 27, 2014 Author Posted June 27, 2014 That's beautiful, man, it just looks soooooooooooooooo ready to drive! That is if the box of parts in the passenger floor aren't needed! This car gets used a lot, and has made several long trips (hundreds of miles each way) with no issues...in HOT weather. It was built almost entirely by the owner, a guy in his 40s (on the far right in the second picture).
Jantrix Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Wishbones, friction shocks and a banjo steering wheel. It doesn't get more old school than that. Very nice.
10thumbs Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 Thanks Bill for posting these time capsules. Is the leather strap inside the driver's door something added, or was it really there? Good stuff! Michael
