Projects Martin Ford´32 5 Window Build

Thanks Go-Twichey.
Notised that you are from Rosemead,why dont you meet me up for a coffe at Pomona on sunday and you will see how relaxed I am =)

 

i will , but....i'm afraid.

 

Fred showed up with the first casted handbrake today and after putting it together with all the other parts it ended up like this .

 

Veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery nice!

 

Nice work on the e-brake!

BTW, is the pirate ship coated with tar? Looks evil!!

 

The e-brake rules!

 

Martin, i love that e brake too

 

Thanks Guys
Back home now after the California trip and we manage to do March Meet, Deuce Week and Pomona.
Best and most fun thing with the trip was that I now have a dealer for the handbrake so it will soon be for sale in usa along with a matching Shifter that fits on the T-5 transmission.

 

GREAT NEWS MARTIN!!!! I am digging it. Will definitely buy those products in the future!

 

Congrats! A great looking product for sure.

So, tell us who is the dealer for the handbrake and can I order one last week. Just kidding, but be sure to keep us in the loop as to when they will be available.

Today I started with the model for the Shifter so Fred can cast it next week. As far as I can see it will work on both the T5 and the Gennie mechanism for those who runs with an automatic.

Late evening today I got a text mess from my friend and painter Totte with a pic . First thing that he have painted for my 32 . Next thing up is the frame, it will be this red/brown on the outside rails and semi gloss black on the inside.

Totte, you are the man

 

I will see you one red tank and raise you a blue one . The Bettie 32 is getting some color too

 

That color is awesome! I can't wait to see more.

 

Nice colour Martin, keep them pics coming.

 

Folks, I would really appriciate if someone can load up a close-up pic on the rear lower door hole corner as this one. I need some reference
As I remember it bends forward towards the front in the bottom but I dont know were the outside of the corner is supposed to end. Hmmmm.....I dont even understand what I wrote now
Thanks

 

Tons of great pix in this thread that may help you:

Thanks Shakey

 

Here is a poor cell phone picture. If you need a better shot let me know.

 

Hey Bonesy, thats what I was looking for. Thanks =)

 

The shifter is done and I just had to try it in the coupe today

 

What's the latest on the wheels?

 

Looks awesome Martin

 

Wow that shifter is sweet

 

I'd need the shifter in my truck..maaan

 

Another one for THE SHIFTER! Wow!

 

Ive been so full of other to do things so the wheels project has been sitting on the side.
Hopfully I get it done soon.

 

Thank you guys for the positive feedback on the shifter and e-brake.

Today the door corners got away from the "to do" list

 

Hi Folks, havent so much to show resently. Have been doing some more metal work on the body and there is still loads of hours to do there.
Took out some rotten wood the other day and ordered some new from Artwood. The top kit,rear and side window wood.

This metal-part is located between the rear window and the side quarter window and it was filled with some kind of paper or something. I belive it supposed to be there for making interior mounting .
Anyone knows ? , and someone with an idea what to fill it up with ?
