Time to smash a bottle of champagne across her grille.

Second thought, Deuce grilles are expensive, drink the champagne instead and toast her.

Yeah, post some pictures.

It must be a great moment to get it running! I'm just wondering if your frame is a tube style or original channel. If it is rectangular tube how tid you thread the wires? I was thinking of using a Roto-Rooter cable but maybe there is an easier way? I am just getting ready to wire my '29 but I will need extra ground wires for the 'glass body.

Thanks guys. It's definately a great feeling. Not to mention, my best friend was over too, so that really contributed to the celebration. No champagne, but I've already met my quota for the next couple weeks on the cold ones!

Don- The frame is original, but of course modified. It was boxed with 1/8" plate and holes were cut out in the plates to gain access to the body mounting bolts. I basically ran each harness through the frame to each hole, then continued back. The front wiring was ran the same way, and any wire going to the left front was ran under the radiator and back towards the engine mount- such as left headlight, oil pressure sending unit, water temp sensor, and horn. The positive battery cable was ran from the trunk up the right frame rail to the starter solenoid mounted on the K member.

ive never posted a pic here but will try. If it dont work, there are pics on my website on the "32 FORD" page.


Thanks again,
