Projects Martin Ford´32 5 Window Build

can't wait to see it in person!!

 

Time flys and we're catching the flight tomorrow. Hope the car is ok after the Roll on/Roll off shipping.

 

You are crazy, I work in shipping cars industry, I'll never do a ro/ro shipment with this fine car!

good luck!

 

After the trip crossing the states my coupe now is on display at Sacramento Vintage Ford, If you guys are in the area, go there. Its a great shop =)
Flight ticket´s are bought to be back for the GNRS and Sac. Autorama in the beginning of next year.

 

Wow, great build thread. A lot of reading! Had no idea it was here until I stumbled onto it. Saw the other thread on the US trip and enjoyed that as well.

 

Martin, just move here so you don't have to keep flying back and forth.

 

Glad you liked it mate

 

I guess you are right Brady.
Working on my new project now, it gets roofless n springless so to speak

 

very nice start! I'll be watching...

 

Hello Martin: Just caught up with this end of the thread. The new car going to be a roadster? frame looks great! Are you missing the coupe now or is the weather to bad to get out? I took the cabrio for a short drive a while ago. Its in the upper twenties, maybe low thirties but the sun is out. How"s the rest of the group? Tim

 

Hey Martin, you should start a new build thread. Just my opinion.

 

Martin, congrats on the Street Rodder ink. The car deserves much more ink!

 

Cool I can't wait to see how you build the torsion bar suspension. Please keep us in the loop.

 

Martin

I thought you were going to take a break!

Great work buddy

 

@laidout53 . Thanks mate , glad you like it

@timwhit . Tim, your right. I got a Brookville roadster body for the chassi. At Louisville i meet Jo Keer and he has helped me in the right direction with the torsion setup. Existing to see how it turns out with the different (to me) suspension.
We got the same depressing weather around here now too but it makes it more easy spend time in the garage only 5 weeks to go for the trip to LA and that feels great !

@brady1929 . Maybe I should, ......but what are the strict trad hambers going to say about another ohv car

@BrerHair . Thanks Mate

@rottenleonard . It's coming my friend , just need more time....why does it always takes that long time

@rcnut223 . Mike, i need something to keep the brain up n running. 5 weeks until our vacation. Can't wait

 

Martin: Sooooooo, you have "W" motor for the roadster! They look great dressed up and sound great too. I assume by the pic that you bought your roadster body dis-assembled ....for shipping purposes? Hopefully the big storm won't wash california away! Good to hear from you. Tim

Been some time since I've post here.
The Coupe is back in Sweden and I made a new steering wheel for it.

 

Also been working on my new project, consider if I should start a new thread for it

 

Seriously?

Of course you should!!!

 

Please can you leave a note on this thread when you start the new build thread?
