Projects 32 5 window build

Thanks

 

Nice job, got the look, good luck !

 

Please keep us up to date on your build.
I love the look of a mildly chopped 5 window '32.

 

Thanks. Will do.

 

Making a bracket for the Mallory coil, resister and surge protector

Mounted under dash with u bolts.

 

Upper radiator hose. Gates 20607. Straight ahead thermostat housing. The cut off piece is sitting on the manifold.

 

Bottom hose. Gates 20242. 1956 Chevy. Fit perfect, no trimming required.

 

Shifter mount.

 

B&M prostick works with an overdrive automatic. Moon pedal all mocked up. Brake pedal is from a Harley.

 

Shifter mount still needs some legs to add a little more stability.

 

Better shot of the Moon pedal. The metal plate, for now, is bolted to the firewall with some small nuts and bolts. After I expoxy the mounting plate to the firewall, I will remove the bolts and fill in the holesfrom the outside for a clean firewall. I tapped the metal plate for 1/4-20 bolts. The bellcrank is Speedway. Throttle cable is Lokar. Pedal to bellcrank is just some medal rod for now. Seems to work alright. I hate auto correction.

 

Maybe it's just the photos but to my eyes it looks like the top of the radiator/grille should be tipped back toward the body by an inch or so if you plan to run no hood. It looks in the photos to be tipped out just a bit too far.

 

Your right. It's on my short list.

 

Making linkage for the Moon pedal
1/2 rod drilled and taped to 1/4-28 for QA1 CMR4 hiem joints.

 

Ground down the heads of the stainless bolts and polished it all up. Ready to install.

 

Cut off switch.

 

Drilling holes for fuel lines and battery cable. Getting ready for wiring.

 

Battery box install. Snaking cable thru frame.

Master cutoff...

 

Ran fuel line thru frame.

 

Nice "clean" work you are doing.

 

Thanks.

 

Finished the fuel lines today. Starting on the exhaust.

 

Bleeding the master cylinder. Found some leaks at a couple of fittings.

 

20" trans cooler...

 

This is a cool build. I am starting a 32 roadster and I am likeing some of your ideas. Car looks good lowered.

 

Thanks. Good luck with your build.

 

Some progress on the exhaust system.
