Hot Rods Model a with 32 roof ect...

How about some pics of model A fords made up to resemble 32 fords. 3w coupe mods, roofs without visors. Deuce rails and gas tanks. I am just looking for some ideas to build a car with stuff I have laying around.

 

Brian Bass's Model A is bad ass...

 

I love that car. Wasnt there a 31 done kinda the same way recently? I think it sold on bring a trailer.

 

The Wade Coupe. Also built by Brian Bass

 

Good thread...

Flop use to make the front section of the roof for a model A so that a '32 roof insert could be used.

 

Yes, thats the car,Beautiful piece of rolling art. I am hopping to make a lowbrow version, with a lot more of a race car influence. Kinda like the wade coupe meets deaths doorstep. Im thinking about flush doors with 32 handles, 32 firewall, set back under the cowl, complete 32 roof from belt line up, 0n a very altered 32 frame. Any other pics of model a to 32 work that has been done , would be appreciated.

 

my buddy is building one. top secret. no pictures.

 

Don't know if you saw this, on the 3W conversions thread? Meant to be a Vicky cowl and doors on a coupe body.

 

@JimSibley if anyone can pull it off, I'd put my money on you. Bass had great videos of the work in the build thread. Pics seem to have gone.

WOW!!

 

With a little work, a 32 firewall with go into a 30-31 "A"

 

I sorta 32-ized my '31 Ford Slantwindow 4 door turned Sedan Delivery.
-Rolled/rounded roof over the windshield and rounded the corners of the windshield frame.

-Welded 1-1/4 inch strips of metal over the 2-line beltline of the Model A to make it more like a '32.

-Chopped it 3" in front and 3-1/2 in the rear and leaned the A pillars slightly farther back.

-Built a flat "32 like" firewall.

-Welded in a '32 Ford cowl vent.

- '32 commercial grille shell

I originally built it on a Model A frame and ran it for a year. I later bought a set of ASC '32 frame rails and added/grafted them from the cowl back to give it a more '32 look...so it actually had 2 frames under it.
