    Thank you for taking the time to read about my coupe. And a big thank you for the kind words. I will be the first to say that I am who I am because of my family. It is an honor to have my dad feel that way about me and this project.

    Thank you also for the kind words. I'm not looking forward to the next build. I'm not sure if my brain can take another one like this.

    You call everyone Bubba.

    Except me. For some reason, you call me Sasquatch.

    Is it an oxymoron to have early latches on a late hood? o_O

    Love the car!

    Good eye.
     
  14. What are the '32 hood latchs with the single finger pull? I've not seen them in the reproduction catalogs.
    Thanks, Phil

    Early '32. First couple of months of production.

    As of right now, nobody reproduces them.

    Geez I hope nobody starts. Gotta have some parts remain scarce or everything begins to look the same.
