32 Ford "tweaks" and a few mods

[GregWeld]

as a matter of fact Jimbo......


This is what's plagued this build from the get go (since being "finished") it's been just one STUPID mistake after another on the MECHANICALS. Thank god
the fit and finish is as perfect as a guy could ask for.

I'll pull the intake tomorrow if I get to it.. I still have the core support to paint for my BIL's Camaro project. Picked up his motor from the builder today - and of course that always takes more time that you factor... too many kool other builds going on so have to chat about each one... plus they're friends so there's that jib jab too.

Two plug wires switched, I'd smell that from the house.

Yep -- I hear ya!

Chasing so many other little stupid things... and it's mostly just been on and off the trailer. But when I actually drove it - something just wasn't kosher... I just had to figure out what it was.

Wow! So glad you're finishing the job yourself. This story deserves a happy ending.

These are the kinds of "DETAILS" that kill me on a high dollar professionally built hot rod....


Could we just match the screw heads? Amazingly sloppy work... just amazing.

Agreed 1000%. I would be ashamed of doing that on my driveway-budget build.

I just had an OCD attack

COME ON! I mean, we're talking about a ''prefoessional'' restoring team, they are more than prepared and all that stuff, I don't know, I'm not trusting the quality of the work done there.
