Old Hot Rod ID- 1932 Cabriolet/ roadster

Yes, a top is in the plans as well. A folding one at that. I will not be one of those people that drive convertibles with the top down and the windows up.

I have some work ahead of me...

 

How do you plan to setup the windshield frame?? since that international is setup to be in a frame will you build one around it?? needs to be fairly sturdy to support a folding top. have you also looked at pictures of cars with duval windshields and tops?? not the biggest fan myself, but some look good.

You have alot of welding to do on that frame if I remember correctly. I did a few frames with a lincoln 125 110v mig. takes a little more care and prep to make sure you are penetrating but it works. at the very least you can tack it all together nicely!

did you decide on a drivetrain yet?? you have a good rebuilt banjo rear if I remember right?? sounds like you are running a 39 trans if you are keeping the K member. what's going to be making noise up front??

you better as you have all of the inners to bolt it too! guy who cut up my car took 3/4 of the inner door with it....

 

Cool project!

 

cool

 

I'm thinking it started life as a Cabriolet. HRP

 

Very cool and more pics

 

very cool....

 

I've been aware of that car for years but never found any info on it...Would be very cool to duplicate....

 

Yes, but the roadster is just another black fullfender roadster, barely noticable when parked next to the cabriolet.

 

WOW except for fenders yeah ***y!

 

..... don't mind me .... just restoring some pictures to this thread.
