It seems like it has been forever trying to get this car going (in reality, just a few months time). The short block is at the machinist, most of the other engine parts are ordered, The frame/ch***is/driveline are on order and most important of all, the body will be on it's way from Ohio on Sunday. I just wanted to post and give a public thanks to JimA and SoCal L.A. for all the help putting this together. I contacted quite a few companies before starting this build and could not be happier with Jim's help and advice. I originally started looking for a 'gl*** '32 tudor (posted about this a while back) and he steered me towards a steel Model A tudor or slant fordor. Serendipity struck and I located a Deuce fordor for sale. I never would have considered such an investment without the help of Jim and SoCal, but here it is just over a week later and the car will be leaving for it's new home soon. This is a pic of her from the original ad...
Congratulations, you made a very wise choice. You'll never regret buying a real steel '32 Ford. Ohio seems to offer up lots of great cars. Good luck on your build. The FOGGER
Sickboy, it is coming from Mansfield. Hey Adam, are you getting paid to sit around and surf the net? I want a job like that! ...oh wait, I do have a do like that. p.s. I should also thank the fellow HAMB member who made the difficult decision to sell this car. Thanks again.
I agree, Jim A is a hell of a guy...plus I owe him some parts and need to get off my **** and send them to him.
Have another customer posting his similar story next week! He'll be driving his new car on it's maiden drive from Washington State to the L.A. Roadster show! Stay tuned!
These early 30's sedans are bad ***ed, literally. While I like a coupe as much as the next guy...sedans when set up right have a more sinister look, imo. Nice 32.
The HAMB deuce club folded after the founder sold his 3w and there was a scandal about mis-managed funds and the de-flowering of an innocent intern. Ugly stuff really. But cool 4 door none-the-less.
Welcome to the club. NOTHING like a 32 Ford. Had mine since 1990. I know I'll get a load of **** for this but " If it's not steel, it's not real and if it's not a steel deuce it's not a deuce." Ok let the **** start, remember opinions are like ***holes, everyone has one. __________________________________________________________ Like I told the kid, "Your music not too loud, it just ****s!"
I concur with Doc Squat-------If it ain't STEEL, it ain't REAL!!!!---FOMOCO's I'm talkin' about!!!---Kit cars are fine, but still in their own cl***!!------Don
Cheers MS that's the wife's car, original paint on the body too !. I'd like to do a chopped Hiboy as well .Love them Fordoors.I'll look forward to progress shots on yours , I saw it on Ebay when it was listed. Good luck with the build .
