32 ford 4 door + 1 saw=5 window & tub

What A douche!

 

Seriously wicked rod. Great to see you went with your plan and built what you wanted. I'm probably what you'd class as an old dude and I've got a fordor and am all over the place with what I'm going to do with it. Good on ya for sticking to your guns. Keep up the good work.

 

hahahahahahaha

 

Drew,

The headers look good. But have you thought about connecting the inside two pipes together as one for three exit pipes. Having the center pipe look like a y.

 

31whitey here on the hamb said i should have named the car the "HATE KRATE". kind of fitting .

 

The "Hate Krate" is the perfect name for this car..... I can't believe that some people Are still running their mouths about this project.....No body wanted that body when it was a fordor, Now almost everybody on here would love to have it.....The only thing that is upseting to me about this whole project is You done it before I did...LOL...I have 3 five window coupes, And want to build a channeled car as well, But I can not bring myself to channel any of the ones I have....So You can bet your ass I will find a fordor to start cutting up soon...LOL...And for all you haters I will be posting many pics of My build on here for you....LOL.......Drew You did a great job on this project....ofcourse It didn't hurt that you had original 5 window quarter panels with the belt lines still attached......LOL

 

thx for the good words. also it was a big help to have original quarters. now go out and get a fodor and cut it up. oh and make sure to chop it so it is hard to see out of.

 

i got alittle more work done. i finished up fitting the deck lid. also mount a cool license plate . been working on it to get it ready for the detroit autorama. see ya in dee-troit

 

All this thread makes me want to do is start cutting up nice 4 doors into 5 windows.......The only thing that would make this better is if you chopped and channeled a real clean original 5 window that hard.....then we would really see a bunch of jealous MF'ers

 

Taht car is awesome. How much is the chop? I love it.

 

I think it is 6.5

 

I'm still pro 4 door but...it looks like the 5 window is coming along nicely. I tip my hat to your efforts. Well done.

 

yes it is chopped 6.5 " to a 5 window . but a fordor is taller . i took out just over 7" in the back quarter window.

 

It just keeps getting better and better. Love the Hate Krate name, perfect!

 

That's great!

 

we made it to detroit with just alittle rain. seeya there . SEDAN HATERS UNITE!

 

Haha, awesome!

 

Great job!

 

6.5 inches. Wow it looks like more. Mine is 5.5 and yours makes mine look tall.

 

i have been down for the count sick since detroit but i have to say the kopper krate won the fay butler award at detroit. i was stoked!

 

'

Way to go - very cool. It's such a mean looking little car.

 

this is bad ass.. love the buick tail lights... gotta be my favorites..

Great job there 32coupedeville.
Looks great !!!! I really like your comment about the potential already being there, just gotta cut the ugly out of the 4 door.

Have a question on your front end setup, looks like a flat cross member set at a bit less than flush and at 6-8 degrees. Hard to see from the pics if That's correct? If it's not straighten me out please and the specs on the rest of it . What's the amount of drop In the axle and what spring did you use?

GFY HATERS!
