Projects 1934 Ford Tudor....my first build

Following your thread makes me miss my old hammered sedan. Looks great! Tim

 

thanks...do you have any pictures of you sedan?

 

Man that looking good. I drive through Tolar every other Monday to take my wife to the dr in granbury. I use to see an old coupe body close to down town behind a house. My uncle allways told me it was a 32. But that's been a long time ago.

 

Here's an update on my Tudor project. Mocked up ch***is and body.

 

Dude, you are a magician with a hammer and a dolly! I wish I could learn that kinda skill. That chop looks really tough!

 

Nice work saving that body. What size are the tires?

 

You really are doing a good job bringing 'er back. I'm not big on the "flip" mentality, and that's not what I'm saying...but I think you've already at least quadrupaled the market value of that car. You're gonna end up with a very cool Ford hot rod.

 

Looking good! Keep at it!

 

Thanks guys, The tires are 5.50x16 and 7.50x16.

 

Looking good!!!

 

Awesome.

 

Indeed. Looks good.

 

some more pics with the hood and doors. I know its still rough and I have lots of work to do.

 

Made a top insert today for the Tudor. I used a roof panel from a 59 Belair. Still needs some work but I think it will work out fine.

 

Looking good!

 

thanks

 

Take a crack at it. All he can say is no. If he says no, say "well how much then". It won't get done without a dialogue. Good Luck.

 

Sweet hot rod

 

Great progress and work straightening out that body. Chop looks just right for a serious hot rod.

 

Looking good. I went through Tolar the other day.

 

No. The only doors to my knowledge that interchange are 5-w coupe and front doors from a 4-dr.

 

It would really help to take someone with you who is familiar with Model 40s. That move helped me so much on my '34 2-dr purchase in 1971. Good luck. It will be neat.

 

Oh, my GOD ! A Hemi, roof insert, tubbed, and channeled ! THIS, my friend, is one bad*** highboy ! Beautiful and unique !

 

I apologize for missing that sneaky chop. The changes all meld into a look that should have been offered by Henry. Shame on you, Hank ! !

 

Your 3-w is just about the baddest body style to come from G-M.

 

New hubcaps!

 

You are making progress. I love it. I don't think I could chop one without some serious help. I could watch only. The front post and cowl area look real difficult.

 

Nice work. Congratulations on a fine save.

 

Umm... Gary?
