Technical Pictures of 1932 ford sub rails

@glennpm Thank You,
I can't read some numbers and words.
Not realy sure where I should strat with those numbers. I don't know the total length of the rocker panel because starting from point-zero means I dont have body panels yet.

 

I can give you more in a few days.

 

Great thread…should be helpful to many. Hopefully more pics and comments will continue to be added to help save all these rusty gems that fortunately keep surfacing!

 

Hi V8-m,

I measured, took and pulled together some photos this morning.

 

@glennpm Thank You vey much. It was a lot of work with disassembly and measuring. We appreciate your help.

 

You’re welcome. Please post any drawings and your results.

Bump

 

Some pictures for reference "stolen" from the HAMB

 

So finaly i started to make my own subrails. I prefer original style therefore I made holes on the inside part. Even if no one will see it..... I know they are there...

 

Rails look great, I like seeing new parts made that look like the originals. Showing the tools involved would be nice. Bob

 

Looking good

Realy nothing special involved. Just angle grinder, hole saw, tig welder, brake press

 

I'm back...again...
Can somebody check the distance between center of the hole and midle part of subrail ?
At what distance from the frame the subrail follows its shape. Is the distance the same throughout or does it change?

 

On Mine & others I have been around ,( none channeled )
There is a gap 1/4 - 1/2 Between sub rail & frame
From firewall to pass rear wheel .

 

Started welding...

 

Wow; Those're nice...
Marcus...

 

Nice work…..Start a build thread…

 

You did good!

 

Thanks! Yes I'm thinking about that.
