History 32 Tudor history

I picked up a 32 Tudor body out of Tennessee and I would like to see if anyone has anymore history on it. The guy I bought it from told be that he bought it from an African American gentleman in Asheville North Carolina. He built and drag raced this car in the 50’s.

From what I was told It was parked for a long time and urban sprawl had happened. He had acquired multiple cars and the city was on him to clean up his property. Someone offered to clean the property in exchange for the cars.

The car is pretty rough. But it does have a 4-1/2” chop and It wasn’t channeled. Also, it looks that it had a plywood firewall. I removed it from the car today and it was a part that was fitted to the car. I would think this could help identify it.

I’d love to find out any more history on the car.

Well now, looks like you have yourself a hot rod in the making. Love the chop, it’s almost as if the original owner planned to race it on the track or maybe bonneville.

Nice find . Saved just in time. Good quality plywood too .

 

I have an old highly modified firewall that you might want, PM me for some pics.

 

Thanks, 343w but I have one on the way all ready.

mikie likes it...
careful what you wish for, the history may include an unpaid B O S , or a '60s poker game IOU...
make your history for the car, get lots of pix with the grand kids, that may help keep them interested 25 years from now...

 

That has so much potential. Good luck.
