    Hello from New York. Just bought a 33 chevy 3 window coupe and I am looking for ideas and advice. Been searching around your site. I love all the ideas and photos of your cars. So many possibilities.

    Outside Buffalo. Nice pictures of your 32. Did you leave all your wood or did you replace with metal. I think mine has more wood than metal. Saw a couple strands where they did that.

    The pickup looks great. I'm a big fan of old trucks. I have a 50 Chevy panel too. She's a great cruiser.

    Welcome! You are in the right place for old chevy builds I have a few myself going on. Others might not agree, but get rid of the wood if it's rotten and replace it with steel tubing.

    Thanks for the tip. I'm pretty excited about my Chevy. I was really leaning toward the metal. the wood from my car came pretty much in a pile. It's pretty overwhelming at this point. Do you have any advice/ resources for switching to metal?
