Hot Rods Cody Walls Builds 32 Ford 3 window coupe “The Ardun Killer “ .

I will be following this one.

 

waiting on more parts at them moment

Thanks ,

 

@Stovebolt you need to follow this build

 

Congrats! Will you run a 5 speed with a Culver City Q.C.?

 

East coast style coupes are my fave! I've been collecting for years to build a '34 5w in that style. I will take notes!

 

Love it! Channel em all, i say.

 

I’m back and forth between a lasalle or a 5 speed ,winters quickchange or banjo

 

Yes

Awesome

 

East Coast style with a 12 port 6 greatest thread ever!

 

Always love your builds. Subscribed!

 

A little bit of progress on the coupe this evening after work . Welded in and metal finished the cowl vent, and started making the new B piller structure out of 1/8 Steel when I’m done it will be a complete box channel structure . I never see the point of putting a wood inner structure back in a car that originally had it . especially going threw all this work why take the chance of your doors and body not lining up later on down the road after driving the car .

 

Looking good. Back in the 60's I did a chopped & channeled five window and dropped the floor halfway down in the frame. It gave me so much room for a comfortable seat. With out a chopped top it may not be necessary. Will be watching this sure to be a nice Hot Rod.

 

Wow! Great progress already. Are you planning on recessing the firewall to fit the six cylinder in there? I'd love to see the rest of the rendering too.

 

Aha! Somebody else uses a cordless skilsaw to cut metal! Fresh blades are a must!

 

When we cut tin for barn roofing an old timer told us to put the blade in the saw backwards. It worked like a charm.

 

^^^^yep. And ear protection.

Very nice

 

Yes on the firewall .
The rendering isn’t 100 percent Finished yet

 

I’ve heard that too for tin work .
I’m cutting 1/8 with this . I used a
Demon Cermet II Carbide Blade for Ferrous Metals & Stainless Steel for this .

 

I got one from Eastwood and it is a mini circular saw for steel.Works great on 1/4 and less.Been doing my 35 Chevy standrad all metal replacing the wood with 14 ga

 

I'm from NJ, and not a big fan of the channeled, unchopped look, but daaaamn, that hits the nail on the head! And LOVE the Wayne 12 port engine!! Can't wait for updates!

 

Shades of Ike Iacono! (and his '34 "Jam-Packed Jimmie"!) HRM cover car, 1954...
Not a copy, but a brand new/old slant on GMC/Ford combo.
My first roadster was a '30 'A' Cabriolet, stock height windshield, channeled over Deuce rails. Great lines... Go, Cody!

 

Is that a G.M.C. or Chevy 12 port?

Next question if it is a G.M.C. 270 or 302
Chevy 216, 235, or 261?

261 Chevy 12 port is my hope!

 

I wish it was for a 261 , It’s for a 235 Chevy , from what I’m told only about 150 of these heads were ever made , and the side draft intake only about 5 . Wayne made one head for a 261 . Which is a 18 bolt head and the last I knew Pat Swanson has it in his 32-5 window coupe . all the rest of the Wayne Chevys were 15 bolt heads

 

Very

Very cool, do you have any photos, I would love to see

 

Thanks
