Thanks for the good words....i need it.Raining in Oregon

 

Just damn! Dude, you are f'ing good!

 

nice work, very impressive!

 

this is damned impressive... great job!

 

You are insane! Looks great man.

Where in Oregon are you? I'm in Portland.

 

Looks fantastic. Will you keep it bare metal or will you paint it?

 

AWESOME!!!!!

I have been wondering how I could do some of the things you have done there. Thanks for the schooling!!

 

Beaverton, I knew u had to be on the west side of the Cascades, thats where all the rain is!!! LOL Grew up in the Eugene/Springtown area in the 40s/50s/early 60s.

 

OK, so i got some more done. Did the door tops and finished around the cowl. A quick dash too. The whole car is roughed in and tacked together. Needs a lot of welding,grinding and love...(mud) Time for a new owner. Portland CL next week. Ray

 

Fucking awesome!

 

Un-be-fukin-lievable. Thanks for showing us.

 

How many $$ ? Will you make any money ? Whoever buys will have a lot of finish work to do.

 

Make money.................no. You can see the ad on Portland CL under 1932. Ray

 

Found it...more than fair price...at least from the photos.

 

Doing a few interior panels. Ray

 

WOW! Beautiful work!

 

I'm still amazed at this.

Will you include these extra interior panels in the sale at the current price?

 

Good luck on the sale. I was hoping to see it finished. Maybe a HAMBer will buy it and finish it so we can continue to follow along on this one. Excellent work!

 

really?? I recognize the amount of talented work in this thing, but it's not a 32 ford and still requires a TON of work to finish. doesn't sound like anything you bought for a 32 ford would fit it. you can buy a brookville for around 10k can't you?? that 4k difference would be eaten up quick trying to finish this and custom make parts to fit it.


not knocking the builder at all, it's amazing work that I truly appreciate. I can see the point if you build and finish it yourself, being able to say you did it.

 

Fucken clear blue skys!!! We never get the time to do that kind of work here.

 

It's as much a 32 Ford as a Brookville or fiberglass bodied one will ever be.

 

is it?? can you bolt on a set of 32 roadster windshield pillars?? buy a stock 32 decklid and expect it to fit?? bolt in an original firewall??? original top irons??

 

That is awesome! It takes great talent to build something from scratch.

 

Ask the builder those questions, not me...I don't know how accurate his measurements are...but I do know that anything other than an original 32 Ford is not a 32 Ford, it's only a copy, good or bad.

 

Sounds like a couple school girls going at it. I built the car as a fun challenge not to make money or promise anything.. I have built 3 different type "glass kit cars" Nothing fits and are all a bunch of work . Thats how you learn. Ray in Or

 

Ray, Body is looking great. Wish you a speedy sale !
What are you going to build next?

I would kinda like to do a 60's road race car
I built a glass 65 Shelby daytona coupe and didn't fit at all in it but sure was cool.
I need to make it bigger for my 6'7" body. Ray
