Looks like it's getting there. I like the choice of wheels.
Yep, I like it too. Nice looking headers. How are you going to terminate them, or is that it?
Don
Looks good.
Nice stance.
I like the wheels as well . . . who makes them?
Looks great Bill!!! Making some real progress!!!
I see you went with the '37 tail lights, looks good. I like the exposed stock style door hinge look, but those decklid hinges really knock me out! I've forgotten..........is that Redneck building this for you?
Hey Bill . What length steering column did you use?
Angelo
10 thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!!!That is going to look nice driving down 33 in the summer!!!
.....Thanks everyone ;).... Yep I like the wheels also, only problem is they are Redneck's shop 'roller wheels' :(.... On the front I'm using ET III 10 spoke gasser wheels {polished} as I love these wheels. On the rear I'm not exactly sure yet but it's between 3 different choices; 1) I'm going to ask Wayne at Redneck if I can purchase his 'shop' wheels for the rear! or 2) Et III Fueler wheels or 3) Et III Five Window High Angle wheels.....
On the headers I was just going to put muffler inserts in & leave it at that but Wayne said that he personally didn't like the sound of headers that were open on each side cuz it sounds like the motor is missing when it goes down the street. You only hear one side. So he's going to run full exhaust under the car. He'll just tee off of the collectors and go under.....But what I REALLY like the look of is Zoomies but for legal reasons ruled that out......
I will ask what length steering column he used & also the make of the wheels....
Yeah I'm glad I went with the '37 tail lights ;) They were a last minute decission. Originaly was going with '39 Ford but then I saw project33.com 's tail lights & went for it.... Yeah the hood hindges weren't what I expected but I like 'em. I'll paint 'em black as I want to lean towards the nostalgic look. I'm also using Edelbrock finned valve covers & I think I'll get a finned oval air cleaner....
Yep Hwy 33 watch out!!! ;)
Please though I'm open to ANY & ALL advice whether I want to hear it or not!!! Thanks ;0 Bill
MERRY CHRISTMAS/HAPPY HOLIDAYS ALL ;()
I think your ideas for rolling stock will be killer. I am running the '32 high headers (similar to yours) and will use the extensions w/mufflers;) ;) . I have been watching project33 also and thinking going with his wheel/tire kombo. I already have the matching steering wheel (Taladega) along the rest of the interior matching the art-deco/ribbs (socal ribbed knobs, Billet Specialities gauge panel, art-deco A/C controls and the new PARR A/C outlets). Ihope I can carry my plan thru. Nice Deuce.

Very nice, I too like the wheels. Only an original set of Halibrands would be neater. :3dSMILE:
Hay look at side pipes straight off the collectorQuote:

And after they mentioned that I remembered a friend of mine who drove by me {in a '30 Ford with a small block & straight out pipes} when I was standing downtown & I remember it sounded a little 'funny'. So I went with mufflers that are 'tucked' up under the frame & pipes that exit out back.... Bill
nice build , i like the detail , like what you did with the trunk hinges , where did you source them ? my shifter handle and my pedal arms are the same so now i need to do the same for my trunk ....
NICE, real nice. I especially like the trunk "holder upper".:LOL:
Jack
.....LOL, good one Jack!!! ;) yeah really, I didn't even notice but I guess the broom handle trunk holder doesn't really match the billet hindges, huh???
Godspeed32, not sure where Wayne {@ Redneck Street Rods} got 'em.... But I'm going back to Kansas next week to check the car out & I will ask him. I also need to ask the steering column length & the wheel manufacture... Hope the weather is ok so I can drive it!!! ;)
I was not clear I meant straight down on the side along the bottom of the doors, this is what I mean. mufflers inside of side pipe, not sure i can grasp the buzz saw thing I am sure that is a new one to all the open header cars....... I guess at daytona the infield heard a different sound then in the stands mmmmmm nope do not get that one..
Pepi, around here that is called a guaranteed to be deaf when you get there exhaust system... sounds kewl at the fairgrounds (sort of, if you like loud) but is very, very annoying about 3 hours into a 6 hour road trip....
ok I will remove them, actually what you think is not important at all, so they go back on. :-)
aroung here we think, obtw way you mispelled COOL, I know this because I am.......
