Hot Rods Traditional style 32-34 ford fiberglass cars - Any pic's?

+1, but make mine a roadster!

 

Our Latest 34

 

Let's stir the pot some more.

 

The coupe is Outlaw circa 2000 w/steel hood, fenders, running boards, etc. Great car - now being enjoyed in MI. Roadster is all steel that was about 85% restored to original when I was lucky enough to find it. Love 'em both!! If I liked it, I'd get another 'glass car.

 

It's cool seeing all these traditional looking glass cars.. How do you get titles for them???

 

in Idaho have state inspect and show all paid invoices then they will issue a state vin number and title as a replica 1932 ford not a new car. on title it show only as a 1932.

 

Here's a 34 coupe I had the pleasure of using for a few months,all original gear just with a glass body perched on top

 

Puting the finishing touches on this one for my employer.

I would like to see more of the his one.

 

Here is a couple more enjoy fordor Ron

 

Really nice example.

 

I have one of those jpiece

I have one of those piece of shit N.Y. registrations too. If we put them together, someone will have two sheets of toilet paper.

 

When I decided to get back into rods, I called Wescott and was told their roadster was $9500. I ended up buying a Brookville for $10,100, a no-brainer. I did it mainly for resale purposes after I croak. My Wescott from '80 that I never built was really heavy duty. With the body sitting on an unlevel garage floor, the doors closed just as if there was a frame under it. It usually comes down to a question of economics, but I couldn't argue much over $600. In good conscience, I wouldn't, couldn't fork over 22 grand for a rusty, tweaked, bent-up original body. The guys who attempt to sell shitboxes like that can stick them "where da sun don't shine". I was born at night, but not lastnight.

 

My roadster was built in my neighborhood by a good friend. I could have built it, but I wanted to drive it while I was still "valid". He completed it in '10, and we have been cruising the Hell out of it since. If I had tried to build it by myself, it still wouldn't be finished, and there are only so many Summers left.

 

I love hairpins like the next dude, and I run them on my Deuce built in '10, but the 4-bar eliminates ALL the bind in the travel of an axle, and axles with a smile are the ONLY way to go. Good for you, Bud.

 

Man, this one gets the wheels in your head turning.

Thanks for the pic's.

 

damn nice car. Really like the colour, so much more 'fifties" than "hamb black".

 

I've seen that car driving and at a show. It's nice.

 

Thanks for the comments guys,the good thing about the 34 is it still drives and stops like an old car you don't lose the feel...........flathead,3 speed thru torque tube stock rear end and deuce brakes...

Found a couple more pix of rear shots in our great town of Melbourne Australia

 

Been building my chassis for 2 years on and off. Went down to BeBop's to pick up my body Yesterday.

 

Downs body car built in 2006

 

Late to the party as usual here are two of mine. The 32 is an early Downs ser # 21 built by the old man himself. The wife & I have been across the country a couple of times & Victoria B C & as close to Mexico( Yuma) as I care to go. The 34 is a early Gibbons built by Dwight Bond also has a early ser #1508. I been working on it for a couple of years of & on. I'm 82 & not too sure if I will ever get it finished drive it as much as I can when I can. Still in gelcoat. Finally my favorite cartoon someone sent me.

 

This is cool. I love that it's still in gel coat.

 

I'm willing to come out and say I like glass. I've played around with it a lot, made a few molds, and produced some decent results. I can see a glass coupe in my future. Maybe something with a '60's show car vibe.
