    My Dad has all but finished up his second hotrod, and its been 50 years between them as such. So I wanted to say congratulations to him for the effort and I hope he gets a lot of use out of it. I know he's over 2500mi on the odo now, so I guess he is driving it.

    I think 50 years has made him decide he needs a closed car. I will put a photo of the T up most have seen it, but I like this old shot. and then the new coupe. He still has the T.

    And his new coupe. wheels will end up black I think, he's borrowed the wheels of my mothers '33 coupe to see if he likes the sizes.

    Nice to see it in its "proper" guise. The big square reflectors really weren't my cup of tea ;)

    I love the way it sits Swifty.

    Hey now that's an awesome looking coupe. Love the color. Is that a poly motor in there? I like those little lights at the end of the spreader bar, backup lights or directionals? Great job guys!

    This is her coupe, we didn't build this one, bought it pretty much as is, few sortings out on the way of course. she drives this, and I mean drives it, sold her daily driver late model to buy this, so apart from the farm ute, this is her daily car.

    Awesome! That '32 sure is purdy!!! A deep maroon wheel might look good with that body color. Either that or chrome of course. :D

    Well done Swifty.

    You and me both Pete, I've been on his back to make it right and finally its done.

    Directionals/turn signals/indicators, he got them at Hershey last year on our trip. Their a requirement for registration, but more importantly to stop 'stupid' from not seeing what your doing while their illegally talking on their phone.

    Yep , I agree Gary, he's pretty great.

    Mark, I think if we added our total no of miles together and multiplied by two were still short...:eek::(:(

    Yes its a poly motor, I have a photo of the motor by itself, but I just can't find it now will post it later.
     
  24. Looks amazing, good work Swifty.
    Looking forward to seeing it in person.

    Haha, with a Dad with a Deuce and a Mom with a 33, you didn't have a chance to escape the gene pool, did you ? :D If you would have taken up golf they probably would have disowned you.

    Great looking cars.
