Projects My 1936 Ford coupe with the help of another 4dr donor.

Flathead, 3 speed

 

Pics of the more door and parts I picked up from Ohio. Taking the coupe off the ruff 36 frame.

 

Removing the rear half of the more door. Picked up some patch panels at Kalamazoo Michigan nsra, for my rusty rear tail pan inner and outer.

 

Just needed some mock up pics. I know the body lines need a lot of work still. I'm going to patch the floor next.

Awesome ! I like your improvised chain stay frame.....good repurpose of the ole' Hi-Lift jacks. I would have never thought of that.

 

I agree, make that a tech week post for us, please.

 

Pretty cool. I'm playing with the idea of doing the same thing. I have a pile of '35 Tudor and Fordor chunks and I'm flirting with the idea of getting a 5 window back half I know of. Out of curiosity, why did you go with the 4dr roof sections over the doors instead of splitting the cowl/front section off at the body seam just above and behind the A pillars and using the coupe roof section up to that seam? Also, are you going to extend the flat section of the floor to coupe length or use the sedan style floor? How does that fit? I've been thinking a lot about this and it's cool to see someone doing it.

 

I have one trunk hinge for the coupe. If you need it, I'll drop it by next time in Southern Ontario.

 

Ok will do. I believe I posted it on homemade tools and equipment years ago....

 

The coupe roof section and all of the cowl was beat up. If u look in one of the pics of the coupe on the drivers side it had some serious damage. I will end up using the sedan doors and cutting them down on the top to move the top roof section down. Some serious body work needs to be done still.

 

How much are you looking to get for it? I have a cottage just north of Huntsville and sled in northbay if u drop south at all?

 

look s like a cool project , I like your watch dog ,

 

You sent me some chassis drawings a few years ago. If you want it, we'll drop it off, or ship. May be down to Kitchener sometime in November.

 

thanks for using one of our panels. check out our web site for more 35/6 ford parts, www.emsautomotive.com but in the topic " photo album" you will find some photos of tailpan installs and the inner panel "trunk floor extension" you may need this

thanks again
