Projects Nate’s 32 roadster build

Never saw that picture before; those baby skirts on the rear fenders are really neat looking and tie right into the skirted fronts.

 

Fantastic! This car is impeccable.

 

Wow! Never seen that but those look exactly like the first version I made, but didn’t like the way they shot out so straight on the bottom of the skirt so I redid them and put a curve in that matched the curve of the bottom bead on the cowl

 

This is version 1

 

So, Ford initially made the 33 Fords in the US with no skirts on the fenders. They are very rare and were changed quickly.

When production of the English 33’s started using skirts probably corresponds to the US skirts. I think the skirtless fenders (actually exactly like regular 32’s) in England were probably used until they were gone, which is the Ford way.

 

Your roadster looks awesome.
The skirts, top and hood gives it a very classy look.

 

Got one side almost done.

 

Can’t wait to see it once the back fender(s) is done too.
Those euro fenders are cool.

 

I really like where this is headed.

Is that a 7.50 rear tire? If so, I think it could use a 7.00 rear and lowered maybe 1/2"-3/4" in the front...but that's just my opinion and you know what that is worth.

 

The International Roadster. American body, Euro fenders, and Canadian caps.

 

I’m not doing them , rear fenders stay the same

 

More updates?

 

Wouah vraiment impressionnant j'adore

 

Working on it. Doing bodywork/paint prep. Won’t be much until it’s all painted. Once the parts are all blocked out and taken off for primer they aren’t going back on until after paint

 

Heres some random pics of whats been going on. Unfortunately the other day my motor started making lifter noise , so in between this pimer and paint it’s getting another engine . This one is fairly tired anyways .

 

Were I to ever go the skirt route it would include the 33 Pontiac type factory scalloped details

 

The front fender looks nice, well done pursuing your vision!
