Best X-Mas ever. The 32 is home at last.

That is a cl***ic story and I wish I had a way to buy back a few of my dad's cars, but we lost contact of all of them...

 

The photos are a little dark...at times....but you can see the 4 bar bar, the coil cans on the rear and the rear crossmember and the " C " notch.

The 4 bars are polished stainless and are covered to protect them ....

 

The engine, transmission ect.....The 700R4 shown has the optional rear mount tailhousing......I just used the standard front one.

These photos were taken at 3 Deuces shop ( fellow Hamber )
He is the brains behind this ch***is...he has built dozens of 32 frames

Sweet! I'll have to come check it out one of these days. I am currently knee deep in my own mess. Ha Ha Ha

 

For sure...
It's in Seymour right now but I can tell dad wants it over in his garage.

 

so cool! Keep us updated on the progress of this rod. It's like a boomerang, coming back home. A once in a lifetime experience to share with your Dad!

 

Finally uploaded more pictures of the car on a photo site.

That kicks ***. You guys must be incredibly stoked.

 

This was a wonderful story to share...persistance paid off in this case. The old ribbed wheels brought back some good memories.....I have had my 5w for about the same amount of time of the full story, and am real glad that I never got rid of it at some weak moment...glad yours is back in the family.

 

We're absolutely thrilled to have it back. I've been talking with a few members (drhotrodmd and dueceroadster) to get some recomendations on setting up the ch***is. It still hasn't fully set it that the car is in my garage.
How could you not love a face like this...

 

neat... i find it interesting that so many years later your pop and the same kid who baught the coupe were again wheeling and dealing. these old cars are odd.

 

Josh, Russ Weber has owned every car he has built at least twice before he did something with them. Ha Ha Ha

I was up in Seymour Tuesday to see Greg and Joe. It was kind of early though and I didn't think you were home yet to see your cream puff.

 

An awesome story. The dream and your persistence paid off! Congratulations.

 

We're planning on plucking the body off fairly soon to make storage a little easier. But the body should be out there for awhile or until pops sells his car and makes some room in his garage.

 

Awesome story.

Boy was she ever the looker with the Raders beck in her day.

You got real lucky, many, many more went to the crusher in better shape than that.

All the best to you.

 

how'd i miss this...... what a cool story....congrats.....

one of my grandpa's 34 coupes is sitting quietly in a barn.....i'm gonna turn up the heat when i get my roadster on the road.....
