    Good God, what an absolutely breathtaking car! Perfect in every respect. As a modeler, I wish I could stick this little coupe in a "shrink & copy" machine!

    Pines Winter Grille + painted color other than black = One Cool 32.

    An absolute work of art! In my opinion an illustration of what a hot rod coupe should look like. PERFECT!
    Could you describe the details of the chop? Thanks for posting the pics....Tim

    I`m guessing the people from Rodders Journal will be calling you soon....that is a really nice car you`ve got there.....it is knowing when to stop, sometimes...and you have nailed it spot on....it takes something special to set a 32 coupe apart from all the others out there...I`m really pleased for you, you`re a lucky guy, with more than a good eye for a Hot Rod.

    Nice Job Myke

    I fell in love with Sloppyseconds 27 yesterday and your 32 today.
    Your close by. I hope to be able to see this bad boy in person.

    Thanks!

    It is cut 3" in the front 2" at the back. The windshield posts were leaned back instead of adding the 2" or so above the door area.

    The only thing that could possibly make that car better was if I owned it. Congrats on a beautiful build.

    its perfect.

    I was looking at the first couple of black and white shots... then scrolled down to the first color shot and

    BAM!


    Hit me like a ton of bricks. I was expecting flat black... it would look nice in black... but putting color to it really makes it!

    What more can be said, you nailed it! Congrats on the culmination of a lot of years of parts hunting and countless hours in the shot.

    Thanks very much for all the comments!

    Here are a couple pictures with different wheels and no hood. I prefer the wires and hood.

    I have, I am just not sure how to hole them down. I would prefer not to use leather belts. I would want to be able to put the sides back on.


    I am pretty amazed at all the nice comments (thanks again), it is my first car build. It started as a Model A coupe but I sold off the body for the '32. I had built 2 bikes before this, but only learned to weld about 4 years ago.

    I am hoping my 36 in my avatar comes out as nice...well actually nicer, but time will tell on that project.
