Projects My '32 ford coupe found it's way back home after 56 years

I sure hope the body stays where it is supposed to be for the rest of my life.I don't think that I will have to remove it again but I guess you can't be too sure about some things when you are messing with old cars.......LOL

 

Excellent Progress And Motivational To Others....Appreciated...

 

And to think I bought this car the first time when I was about to turn 16 , a million years ago.....Ron

 

Car looks great, Ron.

 

I've been on the HAMB for five years but had never noticed this thread. Just spent over 2 hours reading every post from beginning to end. This is an utterly fantastic story with the kind of ending many of us dream about. You are creating a genuine time machine. Wonder what will happen when you hit 88 MPH? You might not be transformed into your 16 y/o self but I'll bet you'll feel like it. Subscribed and eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

 

Di-'jew jus make that story up?!!! J/K
Slick story and cool picture BTW!
I LIKE IT!!!!

When I hit 88MPH I predict I will see some serious SH**......LOL

 

Anyone have a nice pair of '32 Ford headlights that you will part with for a fair price ?

 

Ordered up a set of headlights that were on eBay, the other day.....

 

Stumbled onto this thread for the first time today while I was waiting on the ladies shopping and just finished reading the whole thing. What a great story! I never parted with my first car but it hasn’t been on the road in nearly 30 years. You’re making quicker progress than me, so keep pushing!

 

In the early stages of planning to move this fall to Southern Ontario where we have family. I know the '39 will be coming with us but not sure yet about the ' 32 coupe or the track roadster. Will keep you posted.....

 

Oh, it has to go with you!!!!

 

As it turns out, I don't think we will be moving just yet. Maybe somewhere down the line but not yet ....

 

Beautifully said.......

 

Bummer, just saw this, set local for 30 bucks

 

Pictures ?

 

Just looked and didnt see em, could look some more, they were 30 bucks and new in the box. Will post link if i find em

 

Spent some time out in the shop today.....Thought I had better get my rear in gear if I want to drive this baby again, while I can still .. .....Hope to post some new photos soon......Stay tuned........

 

Awesome story!...That crease in the RH door is the dead giveaway...hope you leave it...please upload a video of your first drive/burnout!

 

I'm sure that the crease will stay, Nailhead and I'm glad you liked the story ! Ron

 

Anyone know if this build is still going on
Just curious for an update.

 

I have been reading about this build. It’s an amazing story. Praying he can complete and drive it.

 

Bump

 

I too am eagerly awaiting an update to this story but it looks like Ron hasn't posted anything on this site since 2022 although it appears someone logged in under Ron's name as recently as July 22 of this year. Fingers crossed all is well with Ron and his family.

It would also appear that Ron had direct contact with a few members on this site so hopefully one of them will chime in with some info if Ron doesn't/isn't able to.

 

Sure hope this comes to a positive conclusion, wish all the best to Ron and his family. Love the build and especially the story.

 

I was just thinking about this thread last night! I sure would like to see the final result.

 

I just read the first post …
Part of it said …



Speaking of timing and irony …

A few days ago - a thread was
started about Richard Munz
selling “ Hot Rod Heaven “

Which rang a bell ️
That turned on a light
That piqued my curiosity

Which led me to resurrecting
my thread about
a November day in 2013
when I picked up this
in Madison, Wisconsin
and dropped it off
in Connecticut …



Which got me to discover this
about Mr. Richard V. Munz …



I believe in Serendipity

It has been an interesting few
days for me …
