made a little more progress, got the shocks mounted up on some vintage honest charley shock mounts, also got the headlights mounted on some vintage moon stand i got from my dad, headlights are old chrome guides.



also loaded it up and brought it over to my buddy Matt at geardrive headers to build a set of headers for it, stay tuned for pics of those!

 

Sup excited to watch this come together

 

Wow what a great car!

 

Looks awesome Jeff and can't wait to see the geardrive Headers on her.

 

You're progress is amazing, lookn' good!

 

Everything where it should be! Titus, you are the '32 Redeemer.

 

Great thread!!! Awesome progress!

 

Hey Titus, can you tell me about the spiral metal wire covers you have on your headlights please. As in do you know if that was around back in the good ol days. 40s era? I have a bunch of it from an old parts collection I bought. I'm going to use it on my car as well. I think it's cool stuff. Thanks car is looking killer. I love the chrome frontend.

 

Solid hot rod.

 

i think they were stock for model As maybe 32s too

 

Matt at Geardrive has been slaving away on the headers, they are turning out great, heres a pic, i showed him my quick drawing and he made it come to life

 

Four into two. Awesome looking. This car is gonna be killer.

 

Bitchin' !

 

Those headers remind me of the ones AMT gave with their old '32 five window kit! With out the dual outlet . Very cool!

 

Those flared tips haven't been popular since you were a kid. lol.
Tasty pair of valve covers too. Very nice.
I'm starting to think this car will be the picture of American traditional hot rods when completed.

 

That is turning into an absolute killer car. I am wondering what some King Bees would look like on it

 

Those headers are killer

 

Yep, perfect headers!
Killer rocker covers too.

Those valve covers on the Y block are very cool!!
Great looking rod so far.

 

what id really like to have are a pair of chrome 904a lights with thr glass turn signal lens on top, but the nice pair i had ended up on a customers car

 

Correction: valve cover
Jeff, trying to start a new trend or decide which you like better for covers.
Looking good by the way.

 

Beautiful headers!

 

getting it ready for the GSTA rod and custom spectacular this coming weekend, headers back from chrome, fun fun!

 

You still haven't put new shingles on that roof? ha ha

 

Ironically I saw a roadster pickup on a shoebox chassis, built in the late 50's near Ottawa Ontario, Canada,it was a feature car in Hot Rod( late 50's?) IIRC, it was over 20 yrs ago and I didn't have a camera. It was weird but very well proportioned, it was almost fully restored but I never saw or heard about it again.

Ruined the perigee of that old hotrod ... The history is lost forever!

 

Dangggggggg!!!!

 

Sometimes "ugly" doesn't deserve to have its perigee saved. (I had to look up perigee)

 

IMO it looks perfect... hotrods are "works in progress" & rarely remain unchanged over time.
This is a new chapter in the car's history... well done..
