    Been chasing this guys phone number for 5 or 6 months, and finally a friend called my dad last night with the number. Went over and looked at this morning, and picked it up a couple hours later. Its a 32 3 window coupe, channeled, original frame z'ed in the rear, a 1960 ford 352 motor rebuilt with 3x2 intake, 34 ford radiator, c6 trans, ect..... Doors are almost perfect, perfect grill shell, chrome garnish moldings, still has part of the subrails intact, chrome header panel, chrome original windshield, ect..... Its a car that was built in the 60's that has passed through alot of hands, so if anyone knows anything about it, i would appreciate knowing. I believe it started in southern ohio, then made a tour through georgia and maybe alabama, then its been in central ohio for the last 15 years. Enjoy

    Nice, you don't see a 352 every day, I don't know that I've ever seen one with a 3x2 intake.

    Sure looks like the same car from the previous thread. Still a cool find regardless.

    I'm sure it is the same car. Not many channeled, 352 Ford powered 32 coupes out there. It even had the Ford 3x2 set-up on it when I sold it. The guy I sold it to didn't want the cross-ram. It was a very solid car. I bet the doors are worth what I sold it for. Its great to see it again.

    Wow, i dont know how i missed that thread, but it is the same car. I even found the chopped grill shell on the guys wall and he threw it in also with the deal. Its a small world! Well right now i plan on getting it ready to take to louisville nationals next week, and cruise the fairgrounds with it, after that who knows, got too many cars, so something might have to go! Thanks for the info guys.

    Cool car, and story. Without the hamb he may have never found out what happened to his car. The hamb is a powerful tool.

    Thanks for helping me find the history on the car. The hamb is amazing. I know the guy i bought the car off of is andy ????, and he has had it since 1995, then i found 231ramona here on the hamb and he gave me a little info on the car. He has had it since 1988-1995, and he gave me a phone number of the guy that had it before him, and i tracked him down in florida and just spoke to him on the phone. I never thought it would be this easy to find the info on this car! The plan is to rewire it and change a few things to get it to louisville next week. And i have contacted both previous owners and they are supposedly going to be there next week and hopefully be reunited with the car. Should be an interesting weekend. Thanks again.
