Projects 32 Ford 3 window FIND

Discussion in 'Traditional Hot Rods' started by 383deuce, Mar 29, 2014.

  1. Well guys I wanted to share my find with everyone on the HAMB. This is my first time doing the photo bit and I sure hope it works. If no photos show up you all will know I bombed out.
    I have been chasing this old chopped 3 window for over 5 years and scored it at long last.
    It was a hot rod built back in the late 50's or early 60's in the South Souix City, Nebraska area. Hope someone can tell me a little more about it.[​IMG]
     
  2. Can't help with any information about the body but sure can congratulate you on your persistence.

    Good looking body,gonna open up the cowl vent? HRP

    Very cool, Dennis! I'm from Sioux City originally. I will be up that way in a couple weeks. Will have to stop and visit an old hot rodder friend and show him that photo. It's possible he may know something about it.

  12. Nick,
    That would be a great start in may-be finding out some history on it. I did get a reply for Randy Milligan from Wayne, Ne. and he had done some floor work on it 30+ years ago. It had been a channeled car and he droped the floor back down for the guy that sold it to Ron Willams the person I bought it from.
    Plans are to build a Rolling Bones style hot Rod with it and I will be installing a new vent section.
    Dennis

    Great find! Always good to hear that a deal is made after years of searching and waiting. Took me 40 years to find a car I was looking for, now I have to try and talk the current owner out of it. Bob

    That's a pretty cool old body with what looks like a pretty nice chop ... That would make a really nice traditional hot rod .... Are you sure you really want another "rolling bones "car? There are a lot of those cars around now.... I say Keep the chop and build an old style hot rod , maybe base it off of old pics or an old featured car from back in the day... Just my opinion

    Boy did you score a nice coupe. The chop looks good in the photos as does the whole body. Build what you want.
