    Hi!

    I live in Lima, PERU and I just joined the HAMB in order to exchange info and ideas on my newest project.

    I have a 34 Ford hiboy 3 window coupe.

    I plan on buillding a HOT ROD with it, with a 392 HEMI (which I already have) and a manual gearbox.

    I plan on using mostly parts dated 1958 and older. So it has a real 50s hot rod look. I say mostly because it could prove difficult or hazardous to use parts of that vintage in parts like the brake and fuel system, etc. So yes, I want to achieve that look, but might upgrade on some areas.

    Well, thats it!!! Here is a pic of my project.

  2. Welcome Domingo, Very nice. Going by the bald tires and typical South American fender modifications it looks like that old Ford was driven till it died.

    Yes, it is rough....but since it's gonna be a hotrod and its gonna need lots of mods, guess it doesnt make much of a difference.

    Sure I wish it was cherry....but oh well!!!!! Gotta do with what I have!!!

    ;)
