Hot Rods I wanted a Convert. & ended up with a 34 Ford 3-W

I have been looking for a Shoe Box or Chevy Convert. I ended up talking to a good buddy who just started to build a 32 Ford 5-W after just completing his 32 Ford Roadster and needs the room so his 34 Ford 3-W that he has owned for over 40 years will have to go.
This coupe has been a dependable summer driver for many years. I bought it on the spot, so the convert search will have to wait.
All steel 3-W body unchopped, with Rumble seat. Filled Roof
Recent N.O.S. steel front fenders installed.
Fiber glass rear fenders, and Gas Tank Cover.
Mustang ll style front suspension with tubular A frames, disc brakes.
Nine Inch Ford Rear with Highway friendly 3:00 gears.
454 Cu In early 70s Corvette engine recent rebuild. Newer Walker Radiator.
Chevrolet 400 Turbo Hydro Transmission.
Decent Amateur installed interior, Leather seats & Rumble Seat..
Crank Out Windshield,
Working Cowl Vent.
Roll Down Rear Window
Recent tinted Safety Glass All Around With Power Assisted Door Windows.
Red Paint is a little tired and not show quality.

 

Hard to beat a three window. That will be a nice car to play with the wheel and tire combo and enjoy the torque of a big block.

 

Looks like a nice car,what's not to like,BB and a 3 window! HRP

 

Nice ride!

 

So, lemme get this straight..........your buddy wanted to get rid of his 34 ford coupe so he can build a 32 ford coupe...
I guess I'm one of those guys who looks at 32 fords as "stylized" model A's..not that there's anything wrong with model A's 'cept they'll never hold a candle to a 33-34 ford coupe's styling. But that's just my personal opinion and I'm happy for you. You scored big time! Congrats.

 

I'm with you on that one, Rocky.

 

Thanks for the Congrats, he is just one of those '32' Nuts and I am glad he is. LOL.

 

Hmmmmm shoebox or Chev convert........end up with a '34 3w........that's some compromise!

 

^^^^^
Really not what I wanted but I could not turn it down!!!!!!!!!!

 

You know a thousand guys on here hate you now........

 

I've been wanting a Chev convertible myself.

 

And I totally understand.......I would grab that anyday over a convert! Great buy!

 

I'm one of those------- Congats! Gary

Nice 3W, looks like you made a good purchase, now you've joined the club of streetrod owners along with HRP.

 

'34 3W with a BBC and 5 -spokes....looks like a HOT ROD to me!
