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

Tony, Tony, Tony I am deeply hurt and offended by that statement and I am not sure we can be friends any more.

 

Robert, with all due respect, I just meant my experience doesn't give me
the vast knowledge of and experience with Chevrolet 6 that you have!
BTW, I don't do imoges!

 

Well the cats out of the bag , The Rodders Journal is going to be shooting the 32 and my wife 49 Buick in bare metal here in the near future .

Also I ended up making a motor mount plate out of 1/4 “ steel for the Wayne motor , it comes off the front side of the motor and mount in the stock ford v8 location . I’ve made very elaborate motor mounts in the past but with this project I wanted to keep it simple and make it seem like this was an aftermarket piece that could have been made back in the day to put a Chevy inline 6 in a 32 ford .

 

Bitchin!

 

Just so I understand ,the boss ( your wife) approves of this ?

Love the front motor mount. That flows like a Salvador Dali! Just beautiful to look at!! Please say that it will be polished steel.

 

It will be Chromed along with a lot of other things .........

 

Yes

 

That motor mount belongs in The Hot Rod Museum of Fine Art!
This thread is one of the best on here!

 

Wow, if this is the simple motor mount, the mind boggles as to what the elaborate version would have looked like. Impressive stuff as per usual.

 

SIMPLE the man says NOBODY back in the day could have made never mind sell a mount as nice as that.

 

That motor mount sure looks like fabrication porn to me. Snowman

 

Simpl...y stunning!

I think that is what you meant.

 

No fair, now you’re making me want to do one of those for myself. I’m going to sit in the corner now.[emoji6]

i've been following the build on Instagram, nice job!
On the motor mount, i was planning on doing something similar on my truck. i assume you trimmed the front plate, under the pulley, for the new mount to fit?

 

Congrats Cody on the well deserved up and coming ink...the Hotrod is really coming together in a style that really is breathtaking...what a year it's going to be...The Hamb rocks...

 

Cody, I've never done this personally, but, I have seen these 6 cylinders started manually with a crank start from the front. This would be for freaking out the already dumb struck viewer, so there's that. As an old Inliner with 117 k personally driven miles on a '56 235 in my '49 with a '62 261 patiently waiting in the wings I am soooo proud of you for going this incredibly unique route, the style points, IMHO, are off the charts!

 

ive never tried to crank one over by hand either .



thank you , I like going the different route than most .

 

Thank you

 

Marshall trimmed it when he built the motor , so it made things a lot easier

 

Thank you , they took a while to get but definitely worth it . I’m still waiting on the rears but this makes it so that I can make this thing a roller.


You so lucky , I wish I was there to hear this thing run in person . Marshall kept teasing me with videos .

 

Still stunning

 

This work is really "Off the Chain!!
Hot Rod Porn at it's very best!!

 

...x2 it's really starting to take shape now...

@Cody Walls you're very good with the camera...It's part of the inspiration these vintage offerings from a much different time can have on ones appreciation of past Excellence...

 

Your 32 insert is beautiful. Where did you buy the vertical bars? And can you buy the horizontal bars too?

 

It’s a vintique grill insert

 

Oh, ok. I thought you were rebuilding an insert. Thanks.
