Carter -- Go back and look at post #383... there's a posted pix in there that shows the cow catcher... it's the only decent pix that shows the shape.

Hope you like it.

Love the '34 ! The tools are not bad either...

Is that your garage?

Not mine, I only qualify as a shop boy there. It's a good friend garage and another's '34.

Like the headers?

That '34 is going to be COOL!

Ditto that whole statement for me as well. I love it here because the fabrication work is off the charts - art, pure and simple. That kind of stuff used to be more common on hot rods and customs.

I personally think EVERYONE should have a hot rod at some point... the are just plain good old basic fun!

Was your's a "vicky"?

Lookin real good Greg. Everytime I look at your thread it makes me regret selling my 34.
The cowcatcher looks great. The 32s Ive seen without IMO looks like theres to much of a bare void between the rails.

THANKS!

Yeah --- I really like my "rail job"/"cow catcher".... it just makes it look complete instead of the usual chrome spreader bar with turn signals.

So... I used to make fun of '32 Fords... I'd see a bunch of them at a show and the guys sitting by them were all about 100+ years old. BUT - once you drive one of these little light weight cars (doesn't have to be a '32) you realize why there are so many of them. They're a hoot!

Sorry you sold yours! Now's the time to buy/build another one. There are a ton of 'em for sale!

Think of '32'a as, hmmmm, uh, well, rocking chairs.

SAR got the heater "hose" lines run to the refurbed antique heater we added (to keep the wife's toes warm...

And somebody has been polishing on the SS headers.... so they'll look real nice just before they turn blue! LOL. Headers aren't done yet. There are turn downs to be added yet not this blunt cut version.

My response to Steve when he sent me these pics.... "you're not going to charge me for that kind of crap are ya?"

They look sweet Greg. Maybe they hear the voice like in Field of dreams but they hear "Build it" he will pay!!!!! lol
