That's Charley's "Stacked".... just a killer '32!

Mine will be just a mild resto rod... for cruising around. Easy to drive... and a just for fun build. One of the reasons I didn't go hotter on the engine.

Snowballing? I have no idea what you mean. Let's recap the work being done to my 600 mile fresh "re-deuce":

Body removed from chassis
Rear end and all mounts removed from chassis
Minor body repair
Install new Kugel Champ quick change
Check Kugel IFS for proper caster installation - cut and set up properly if required
R&R dash and gauges
Modify Steering column drop
New Steering wheel
R&R fuel tank for internal EFI pump
Check and R&R all wiring
Repair floor area and relocate emergency brake
Flatten floor space in trunk
New Motor
R&R T56 with TKO 600 5 speed
New flywheel - clutch - driveline
New Inglese EFI 8 stack
Custom Stainless Steel polished headers and exhaust - using V clamps
Check and relocate motor if required
Install MSD
Install Joe Hunt Magneto
New Wheels - Schott Velocity's
New tires
New square weave carpet
R&R grill shell
Fabricate new pan area in front of grill shell between front frame horns
Fabricate fan shroud and new electric fan/s
R&R hood mechanism
Remove hood sides
Add leather hood straps (4) with springs and buckles
Fabricate console with cup holders and push button start
Fabricate light bar and install new Commercial style headlights
Paint engine and transmission
Complete paint of frame
Paint other parts as required


I might be missing some items requiring additional attention.
