Projects The resurrection of the Mitchell/plowboy/jeffreyjames/peterson32/now titus's 32 coupe!

will the wheelwells be above the tops of the tires?

 

well just say you probably wont like this car when its done im basically cloning a car i really like, pics of it are in this thread, im not gonna "fix" stuff on it to make it look like every other hot rod 32 out there, to me the car im copying has a good look to it and im going with it. only major thing ill change is the sweep of the headers

 

I am enjoying your coupe build ! I also agree with the older style of your build and if memory serves me the cars did not all look the same.

 

Yes what HRP said. To take a pile of metal and turn it into an awesome car the way you and a few other guys I watch on here. Awesome !!! I'll be watching .

 

Very cool build.

I'd call this car "Lon Chaney" after the man of a thousand faces!

Started out like Bella Lagosi... turned into Boris Karloff and now...?

Glad you're saving it...

 

Great build. Looks like the perfect 32 hot rod. Are you going to make some type of zoomie style pipes for her?

 

Yeah Titus, I can't wait to see its completion. So could you give a brief description of the way you say your going to tweak the exhaust look so I can get a better visual in my head. This is to further the drooling of course.

thanks everyone for the compliments, gonna try and pull it down from the frame table today or tomorrow.

Shine, basically less upsweep on the headers

 

Cool.


"I need my mirror boy"

 

Got her down off the frame table today, scrammed a couple cars out of my shop so i could get going on another customers car that needs to go on the frame table so i yanked this think off. got it on the ground and got the front suspension under it and got the motor and trans back in it.

I was just over there. It sits REALLY nice.

 

Killer stance.

 

Really taking shape, looks great

Bad boy!

 

I have never wanted a 32 Coupe until now!

 

Anyone give you any info on the valve covers? They're really cool. I've gone back through and stared at them a few times now.


"I need my mirror boy"

 

Looking good. Whats going on the table?

 

Wow, looks amazing. I may have to build a chopped and channeled 32 5W.

 

no info as of yet, heres a quick pic of them thrown on the motor

but i also like these edelbrocks

but then i see the pic of the car with chrome covers and may have to go that route, i feel the first ones match the era of my edmunds 2x2 cadi intake better and edelbrocks seem a little late for the horne but then im just being a pain in the ass!

Going to start working on a customer 32 pheaton

.

 

Often wondered what happened to that body. Glad to see it fell into the right hands. Excellent work and great progress. Subscribed and looking forward to more.

 

I saw the car in the wild at the auction. I am an ambitious bastard, but I didn't think the car was worth building. Glad to see it getting pieced back together.

 

Lookin' good. I like the no-name valve covers best.

 

Nice! Reminds me of mine in the 60's

 

Good work. I would not ever start a project with the demands of the work you have expended.. Great job..

 

Not at all! Little details like making sure the intake and valve covers fit the same era together and what makes a car stand out. I notice things like that, and it bugs me when it's off.

 

I agree with you- the no name are a much better compliment to the Edmunds intake and are, in general, more pleasing to the eye!

 

Cool project, Jeff! There was a time when I would have killed for that coupe back section and back window.

 

got a firewall cut out for it yesterday, itll get a polished stainless panel when done.

 

I'm so jealous!!!! I miss that car but I am really happy to see the constant progress on it. Keep it up buddy!!!
