Hot Rods Had To Have Another Five Window After All.

As you may know I sold my 32 Five Window (Coleman Coupe) awhile back. I thought just having my Roadster would be enough. After all I am not getting any younger. Well it has been an emotional couple of weeks, having lost a good friend to ALS.
I decided I needed something to keep me busy. I sold this 32 coupe to a good friend five years back. He has not had the time that this Deuce deserves. We finally got on the same page where he wanted to sell and I wanted to buy. So last week I took possession of probably the nicest 32 five window that I have ever owned. So why did I sell it in the first place?
It was so nice I could not bring myself to remove the perfect fenders and chop the perfect body. I still can't believe I will have an un-chopped full fender car. For now I am just getting back in shape, going through all the mechanics and maintenance items.
Fixed a leaking wheel cylinder that must have been leaking for a while by the mess it made.
I never finished the car the way I wanted it five years ago, so I am continuing with my vision. Changing the headlights and bar, dropped axle, new springs , front shocks etc. Wheels and tires. Here are a few pictures that don't show much. I have been so engrossed in the work that I have not taken many pictures. I promise to do better. Not Chopped Full Fenders We shall see! I am enjoying the work.

The wheel and tires will be going, since they are not mine. I have a nice set of 16" wires that are all painted and ready to go. I want to wait until I get the stance right before I buy tires.

 

Love it!! I'm sure you will do it justice. No chop full fendered dropped axle etc Done!

 

Looks awesome congratulations cant wait to see what you do to her

 

Not every ‘32 has to be chopped or fender less. Roll with it.

 

Beautiful!!!!

 

Nice car, glad it came home.

 

Righteous!

 

I love the unchopped and full fendered 32s. And thats a really nice one.

 

Congratulations.

 

Great place to be in. How can a guy turn down this opportunity. Second time around I bet will be a keeper! Awaiting many pictures.

 

We gave my sedan a Gentleman's hot rodding back in 2005 and it's been fun ever since. Just like you plan, a dropped axle, lowered springs, juice brakes, and a rubber rake. It's very comfortable, can go anywhere in any weather, and I can see out of it in all directions.

 

Congrats! Looks like an all weather car.Jmho. Snowman

 

Good to see another return at The Revolving Door Garage, you left out the important feature the FULL HOOD.

I'll be doing the same thing whenever I get to my patiently waiting 5W. I'm only 5'10" and I'm not a huge fan of chopped vehicles from the inside, they look great from the outside though.

 

Nice

 

Don't let the fellow who chopped our 51 see that puppy... sometimes it's better cut up a nice one...

 

Very sharp coupe.

 

Congratulations Mark. I like your plan for it. { Think little Deuce coupe hot rod } Have fun, and keep us posted. Ron........

 

@ct1932ford...The Boomerang Coupe...Congrats what a trip back...but full speed ahead...those days are in your heart and second time around...Oh Yeah!!

 

how could it be any better?.......327/365

 

She’s a beauty! Enjoy.

 

I love it and since you already have a nice hot rod; I would drive it the way it is. Glad you got it back.

 

I like your plan for the coupe. Please keep us updated on your progress.

 

Wow beautiful coupe! If you need someone to make the first cut with a sawzall let me know.

 

I agree, but the 48 Ford seems to be good right now.

 

My thoughts exactly!

 

Very nice car!

 

Looking forward to watching you turn the old coupe into a non chopped, full fender hot rod. Go man go! HRP
