Hot Rods Fixing a big mess...the anniversary 32 sedan

Reading is FUNdemental. For some folks it's fun, for others it's just mental...

 

Well, bout all I can say is: If you don't want to read the whole thread, then keep your yap out of it!

 

I haven't updated this in a while...been busy. Got a new toy for my shop, a Lennox/ Pullmax machine. Have been having fun with it making parts for this car. I made some door bottoms and upper door jam parts. The door jam parts were a little difficult but came out pretty good

 

I put a recess in the firewall for the distributor and a little room behind the head for plug wires.

 

Also replaced the bad section in the rear quarter window

 

Dang son. Where do y'all find this stuff?

 

Also got the one driprail on. Bending the new driprail took some trial and error. Ended up using heat and a makeshift die.

 

I got the machine at an auction sorta close by. It was listed really wrong but still had to fight 2 guys for it. Really liking it!

 

Great work, I find this very inspiring to see this kind of work being done and wish I could do it also!

 

Is this rain gutter something you made or is it supplied by someone? It looks a lot like the gutter on a 1931 Slant Back. Nice work as always. Bob

 

We got them with a pile of parts. Looked like a speedway sticker on them. I could dig the sticker out tomorrow .

 

Thats sc

Thats scary....

 

It's actually easier sometimes to just do it right...

 

Wtf, who would do that and why

 

I think you should tell us who it is that sells shit like this.

 

Love these as details. I sure hope it's tall enough to be able to remove the dist. (looks like it is...)
The ones that hug tight to engine parts just look like no thought was given. You want to be able to wipe stuff down (finger room) and remove components!

 

Wow is this ever coming along great!

 

Got the body in epoxy primer today. Metal work is finally done on the body. Just have to finish the bottom of the doors.

 

Also epoxied the inside and sprayed Raptor bed liner inside. Wanted to do this before I add the steel bracing so that everything gets coated. Floor and bracing have been clecoed in and will be easy to put in once dry

 

Oh and no mud hiding anything inside or out right now.

 

What a change from where you guys started from, your friend is very lucky to have you guys willing to step up and save him from that POS that he was saddled with!

 

Amazing work Clark...
Hard to believe you went from this

To this

 

AWSOME!!!!!!

 

The irony is the first guy probably has about the same time making a quilt and bondo sculpture as you do fixing it correctly!

 

What a transformation and return to sanity! Well done!

 

We ALL Agree !!!
Amazing Work and....
Thank You !

 

Amazing work, it looks great!

Clark, you are a metal wizard. You've performed a miracle here. I actually talked to the owner about this time last year. I didn't realize he was the owner until after he described the car and the work you were doing on it.

 

You are truly amazing.

 

Got most of the bracing inside the car today
