    had to see what it looked like, we put the body back on monday, got her al bolted down to the frame tonight, and also got the doors back on and they still fit!! i just had to roll her out for some pics.

    ive got to go back out in the garage and get some more done, get the dash back in it, finish re hooking up the wireing and if my gl*** get here soon put that in before the show.

    Muttley, ive been running the fuel lines on that car like that for a couple of years, ive been figuring on replacing them sometime, but they are still decently pliable, so im not to worried but i have definately kept the fuel line in the back of my mind.

    Ive had the car driving for 3 summers, the last summer i drove only a little cause the rearend was f----ed up, and it started running like ****, and i had other cars to drive and we bought a new house, etc etc, i just didnt get to working on it, but i went to detroit and had a ball and got me fired up to work on the 32 again, i guess it was sittin next to "the Dons" 32 and wanted to get mine going, so i put it in gsta car show and wanted to make it a little nicer for the show, that why i fug into some body work.

    Looks great ***us. I say run the fuel lines till they break, carry extra with you though. I hope you got it back in before the snow started. I won't make it to the show this year, so have a good time.

    oh lets see,

    Tyler, ill post a before pic for ya, and you still cant have the 36!

    Joeybscy, 5:00/5:25 16 firestones, 7:00/16 firestones, front rims are stock 40 ford wheels, rear are some aftermarket stockton or wheel vintiques (cant remember).

    3wlarry, ive got a 32 sedan also.

    Ahotrod, its a 63 401 mated to a switch ptich 400.

    Back to the fuel lines, yeah im probably pushing it with the fuel line but i dont care, life is about chances and lessons you learn from taking them, it looks alot cooler than black lines so i just cant do it, like i said, i keep my eye on them, i touch them to make sure they are not brittle, i flick them with my finger, i pull on em back forth, if they break, shame on me and hopefully i can get her shut off in time and not lite her up, if it does, so be it.

    I got the dash a painted up (quicky, no mud just matched it to the car for now.

    Rolf, i love your nailhead too.

    Im not sure whats not on the back burner but i have a original green paint T sedan that i built a new ch***is for with a dropped axle juice brakes and split bone with 35 wires and big n littles thats begging my for a v8-60!

    Jeff, way to go. Looks great. We did have a great time at Detroit....Maybe next year your car will inspire me to build another coupe, or maybe my g***er will get you to build one! Na, probably both!!!! We are so infected.
