    There used to be a guy running around KC with a two-tone blue '32 Durant. Wonder if he's still around... Anyway, nice project. Can't wait to see it finished. You don't see many of those at the local burger joint.

    Is that how the Durants rear panel came, recessed back like that. The rear looks killer.

    Sweet! That car looks real nice. My grandpa had a '28 Durant Star at one time, pretty car...Then he traded it for his 1916 T Center Door (I really want it). He would never cut either of them up though..

    Good luck on the car, I really like the front end setup.

    man o man that came out very nice. looks good in person too.

    have you thought about running a small block ford so the distributor wont hide all that beautiful work?
     
  25. lol:rolleyes: you said FORD... sorry not a ford bone in this car...
     
  26. Besides, a Buick or Cadillac V8 would accomplish the same thing -
