    Little presentation of me. I bought my first '' Hotrod'' a 1937 chevy when i was 15 year old. and have been a Moran since.. I'm in my garage almost every evening and build my cars.. I don't know if you make threads of what you do, but if anyone want to see what we do in Sweden so just tell me. Would be happy to answer questions and show you. 6ded65ab108b8f6b67f8ffb947de88ac.jpg

    This is a primer i use. 50/50 light gray and black. If i want i can paint over it with normal paint after little sanding, or i can leave it as it is... Try to get little ''magnesium look''.

    ... I'm still trying to get my mind off your 1st post. I like your Frame looks like your detail man. Tell us something about the Deuce your building, looks to be a European Built 32 4 Door?

    Yes, my first post can twist your head even when it's a drawing.. I personal prefer the real one.
    About my cars. Right now i make two in the same time, Yes, a European Fordor -32. i just show the body so far cause i painting that one now. It's a newer rusted body that i Bought/trade from a friend in south Sweden.. i try to make that car under 10 000 $. I trade and sneak as much as possible.. Hobby need to pay hobby.
    I will start a thread when i start building.. The Chassi is for a roadster i've started some weeks ago. That body is in bad shape, and need a lot of magic to be a car again. But when it's done it's a Henry Ford 1932 roadster.. There is a thread on that one called
    '' Project -32 Roadster Around the World'' I try to give a little info of my project as good as i can..
    Have a nice weekend and make some progress...

    Thanks.. Every car i have has it own story... The 33 is original sold new in England in mars 1933.. So it's a very early car... It has a great story as the first known Hot Rod in England build 1963... I have a lot of info and pictures from pre owners... I have plan to make a tread of it..
