Here's the proposed new dash.... What do you guys think? It's typical '32 Ford but I like it. Hard to reinvent a '32 dash...

And I ordered an Inglese 8 stack -- like this -- except the INTAKE will be powder coated (for a "base") and then painted the Ferrari red.... everything else will be full polished. The block is red - I'm putting on aluminum heads - and then the intake painted - for something a little different. Kenny D talked me into having it powder coated first to seal it. Smart! Thanks Kenny!

I hate their v stacks - so will top it with some from Cook Enterprises ala my Nomad.

Nice build.Wouldn't mind having a 32 coupe myself.:thumbsup:

Thanks Scott!

I never thought I'd like one - until I drove one! It's an adult go kart...

EEEEEHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAA!

I didn't go out to buy one - just found this one at an auction and bought it - then drove it.... straight to a SAR's shop to have it completely done over. :faint: :D

Intake is going to look bad a!# There's nothing like having other builders telling you how to spent the coin LOL Smart suggestion on Kennys part now you have to ship him the car:lol:

Interior? I like the typical look on the deuces but I would suggest contouring the bench seat in alittle around the shifter.

Interior is already done... I'm changing the dash (the one in the car was a bad imitation of what should have been engine turned - but it was plastic wannbe stuff - LOL). The leather in the car is brand new and very very nice. I'm going to change the carpet to a squareweave -- because we're moving the shifter forward from the seat, so will have a hole in the old stuff. Going from the 6 speed to a 5 speed TKO 600 so we can move the position and get it away from the seat.

I like your thinking Greg. This is going to be one nice "adult go cart"

A group of us got some good laughs while discussing what I "bought" while having dinner at SEMA -- the consensus was I bought two frame rails - the front upper and lower A arms... and a body. :thumbsup:

Sweet looking 32 Greg. Your making some great changes. I love those quick chane diff setups in these car. It just seems to belong. Keep the updates coming.
