32 Ford "tweaks" and a few mods - Lateral-g Forums

Thanks!

I like the "current" version with the painted valve covers. They "frame" the stacks and make them pop a bit.

Since this old POS is just a driver... I just play with it all the time. My wife calls it my "rolling experimental platform".

I like the tall stacks - but they're within a 1/2" of the hood in the front and with no 'filters' I really don't like driving it that way. I'm on pins and needles waiting for a rock or something to be swallowed!

That does look good actually.

I'd be afraid of rocks going down the stacks as well. That would not be good.

Got a chuckle to myself when my new plate arrived for the 32.... Since to me it reads "re-deuce" since I'm redoing the whole car -- but of course it's also a RED deuce...

Cool! That was fast!

So my perfectly nice little 32 Ford now looks a bit disassembled.

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.

Moderators,
Greg isn't a new member and needs no introduction Can we move this to the project section. This is a project if I've ever seen one.
Was there yesterday discussing work on another project and had to take a picture of what Greg bought.
Greg is such a bargin shopper. He got such a good deal on this. Oh the picture has front wheels on it that he isn't going to use, so that gets put in the scrap pile.

Greg, have I got a great car for you. It's a 1966 chevelle, just needs final paint. Pictured below

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.

Would you take $35K? It's absolutely PERFECT!
