The 32 Plymouth project started in January. Up until now, the project has been in the disassembly stage. I have been removing parts and organizing them. This week, the "assembly" stage begins with the frame being sandblasted. I got it home, cleaned up a few spots that were missed by the sandblaster and then went to work with the acid etch primer. Total Cost Involved IFS and rear parallel 4 link with Ridetech shocks are on order. Ford explorer 8.8 is ready for modifications. Let the "building" begin!!! Now all I need is a clue of how to do it all!
It's always so much fun working with clean metal like that. Gonna make you a nice little hot rod . Don
Woody, the previous owner in the 50's had made many mods to this car including cutting the crossmember> I am not sure why they did that since there were no clearnce issues in that area with the Saginaw 3 speed that they had installed. I am undoing most of the mods that they made including fixing the crossmember. See the attached pic fro what it looked like before I straightened it. Brad
This IS my avatar. The previous owner had put a Ford hood and grill on it, and I am replacing it with an original 32 Plymouth PB grill and hood. Frame welding starts in the morning.
Brad, I'm following your thread and looking forward to your success. There aren't very many of us PB builders left. And they are such beautiful, well-built cars. Best of luck in your build.
