Features Model 40 picture thread 1933 / 1934

Nice start no6, love the A too!

 

My street rod

 

The fact that they have been on the car for over 50 years means nothing. They are still weird, wacky and un-cool. The fact that he owns a set of non-cut doors proves it if you ask me.

 

Before ANYONE does anything they better consult with F-head.

...I wonder if the guy who wacked the crap out of those Roadster doors kept the pieces?

 

Kill the drama, dont want this thread shut down! Now back to the 33/34's!! Thanks..

Dadz34, realy nice car.. I really like the 1999 look..Classic!

 

yea, that stuff is pretty dated and old fashioned. He should yank the fenders and double z the chassis, or at least bag it, so it conforms to the HAMB vision of Neo-traditionalism. Sorta like chopped duece shells on channeled '34s, or cycle fenders. Next thing you know, people will be thinking it was built in the fifties or something. UUUGH!

 

Nope, I'd just put his uncut doors on it.

 

I would take a poll to see if it was okay with everyone else first. Ha ha. This site is getting weird.

 

Buddy just finished another steel 34 3 window. Unbelievably straight .

 

Heres one i found recently. Itwas 5 miles from me. It had been sitting in the woods for the last 50 yrs. The owner was surprised that anyone would even want it.

 

Good for you for saving that tudor! Good luck with the project.

 

X2, find some more unwanted Model 40s!!

 

Still not real sure what I'm going to do with this one, build it, sell it, shove it in a corner for a few years and decide later?

 

I remember seeing it piled on your trailer right after you bought it at the Father's day show! Do that thing justice, build it!!!

 

Older shots of my chopped coupe - but still the way it looks today.

 

It was a real unexpected purchase, lined up for the swap meet Thursday night and this guy pulls in a few rows over Friday morning. I wasn't planning on buying anything, I had closed on my house a few weeks before and was broke, somehow Miguel / Migoozi on here convinced me I needed it. It was priced right and came with a bunch of extras including the clapped out unregistered trailer it was sitting on.
A few months back I cleaned it up a little and decided to try and keep it, then a 32 3 window body popped up and I'm broke again No money to work on either for now, I hope I'm not turning into one of those "I'll get to it one of these months/years/decades" guys

 

Hey Justin, keep the faith brother and hold on to it or you just might regret it! Seems that car found you and destined to be!!!

 

Had mine modified by a truck - time to go fenderless

My All Steel '34 Ford 5W Coupe in Germany:

 

Here is mine.

 

Here's my shit box model 40 . started life as a four door . I havn't worked on it in almost 2yrs . going to start working on it in a couple of weeks

 

Here's my old 34 with 33 front sheetmetal, doors converted to 33 style adn 34 chevy hoodsides..have a built 370 Pontiac engine for it, camaro 5 speed and a winters Q/C rear.
Started with a totally rusted, stripped, gutted 34 race car body, a really decent 34 chassis with a heavy 32 dropped axle I had jet-hot coated and I drilled the shit ouf ot it.
Had to go to Steve's auto restorations for new roadster quarters, found doors in Florida, better cowl locally, 34 2 door sedan door tops..man, the list goes on and on.
Hope to get it home from the body shop in a few months.

 

My roadster...getting fenders soon!

 

I can still remember that orange grill hangin in my ol man's shop!

 

Really Chris? It's the one part I couldn't remember where I got it! Thanks, it's a helluva lot better than my old rusted one..even tho it has a llittle work done to the bottom of it.
