Projects 1934 Plymouth 2 door sedan build

MAN !! What talent !!!! Just TOO GOOD LOOKIN' !!!!!!!

 

Love the wheels. I take it they are 30s Plymouth wheels.

 

Hey Scott, I just reread and noticed the front tires, radials. What brand and where did you get them?

Dave

 

Diamond back 5.50x16. Bought directly from them

 

Cool! Thanks!

Dave

 

maybe do the top some shade of grey,,,

 

Finally got most of my interior panels made. Next I need to get the carpet put down then I can start covering and installing them

 

This interior has been kicking my ass. Finally getting it wrapped up though. Still need to make door sills and install the shift and brake boots. Then the seats can finally go in.

 

Dang you do good work! I'm jealous.

Dave

 

Thanks Dave. It's sure not perfect, I made a lot of mistakes and redid some of it several times. A trimmer I am not. Kinda tired of screwing with it, just want to go for a drive!

 

Looks. Fantastic !!!

 

looks good to me

 

Nice work Scott!

 

Looks great

 

I'd be happy with that interior!

 

Hadn't seen your thread, so I got to just skip to the fun part.

Very nice.

 

Almost there.... Got a couple little issues, mainly the shifter is a pos. I need to fix that before any real driving

 

Man O Man you started with junk and made a beautiful car out of it. You Rock!

 

So , is it going to get salty in August?

 

Will have to see how it shakes out. You bringing the General?

 

Wow!!
That is stunning out in the natural light of day!

Very nicely done old friend
Bobby

 

Thanks Bobby! Been a long road...

 

Thats the plan. Hope we don't have another biblical flood

 

Holy shit, that looks fantastic.

 

Plymouth body
Ford engine
Hudson frame rails and axle

Hot rodders

Awesome, @RMR&C

 

Thanks for all of the positive comments, guys! It really means a lot.

 

Well the first drive today didn't go as planned. The car drove pretty good on the highway, but it got hot. Was pushing coolant out the overflow by the time I got back. Then the upper rad hose blew off. What a mess. I got it all cleaned up, now I'm going to have a beer or 3..
.....

 

Well.....poop!
Thats a bummer. I would never have guessed that would get hot with that fan and shroud.
Any ideas? Hopefully something simple... ...is the fan rotating the correct direction? thermostat junk?

Good luck
Bobby

 

OK, so I've been looking at this on the COE forum:

for over a decade and never came to see what you were up to..... Holy SHINTO, you've done a nice job!!

Congrats on the first drive!

 

Thanks, @wetskier2000

Sorry everyone, I kinda left this thread hanging.......

I sorted the cooling issue and put a couple hundred miles on the car last summer. It's really fun to drive!
Still need to replace the shifter and get the 2 outer carbs on the tri power working
