Hot Rods New toy european deuce build

Engine with new clutch plate , US waterpumps , and 12v.
Painted some green color , not original ford but vintage enough for me.
Engine wil be in the car soon.

 

Dutch: How did you go about straightening your wheels?

 

They where really shaky side to side so i bring them to a specialized shop who do wheels , frames ,forks etc.
I had to ask a few shops before i found one who could actually straighten them , most shops do only dents in modern alu wheels.
I must say they got them real straight.

 

Flathead and 39 trans are in , also fenders on and i am stll in doubt...... Fenders r fenderless.
I think i will drive like this fo a while.
This is my first flathead and i real like it !

 

Sweet! I'd keep the fenders.

 

Very nice my friend. I like the look with and without the fenders so the decision could be hard.
I love the French flatty and it's a nice improvement.

It sure is Hennie , i like it more then my pre owned 302 powered '30 tudor.

 

Nothing beats a 32

 

I always preferred the look of these European Tudors over their North American counterparts. The suicide doors give them a cl***ier look.

 

I never saw a chrome 32 shell before I went to TROG last year. There was a car there with one. It looked very cool and unique I thought

Not so much choice for tires for the 18" rims so changed the front to 16" with 500/525
Also installed a 5" dropped 32 heavy axle , took junk perches to make the brake brackets longer and keep a stock look.
The rear have to come down so i will remove a few leaves and think i go 16" in the rear as wel.
Can somebody tell me wich and how much leaves i have to remove to lower it but without the axle hitting the frame ? i have a stock 32 crossmember and stock spring with reversed eyes.

 

Front cycle fenders:

 

Really awesome car.

 

Nice to see some more subtile changes, i like it.

Groeten Hennie

 

Very cool, especially like the plated grill shell.

 

Time to chop , i’m going for 3,25

Body bracing and measure the chop.

 

And after some cutting:

 

Some more tweaking and adjusting befora tack weld it.

A pillar is not to far off:
