Projects 1937 Ford Slantback...A New Toy!!

one more

 

Yes, them are some steam rollers. On the engine easy is ditch the air cleaner and the braded hose covers the rest is not too bad and at least it does not have aluminum valve covers with flames milled in them. I see no heat, which may or may not be an issue for you. Overall just make it your own, looks like a cool ride

 

if I bond with the car I will run heat n air as its full hood and has the room to do it

 

not sure why they would go to this extreme on the width of the rear tires..its not like it runnin 600 horsepower

 

well it arrived at 6am this morning..heavily channeled..will be a challenge for my height

 

Congrats, great potential.
I've always liked the '37's, even though they haven't been as popular as some of the other fat fendered Fords.

 

I like it. Has hopes.
Always wanted one..

 

I was thinkin this would be a good driver over my model A just because of the leg/head room issue...NOT...the channeling killed the headroom, although it is drivable, not like a hard chop on an A...I'll have to change the steering column and make a few other minor adjustments to drive it

 

You talked about changing the ugly seats anyway. You can pick a bench that has a lower seat and adjust the legroom to your liking. Don't dismiss it yet. Could make a world of difference.

 

Yea..I'll experiment around with some stuff..seats are pretty cheap out of the bone yards around here..I bought the middle seat out of a Dodge Caravan in excellent shape for 40.00!! It fits like a glove in my 29 coupe
