Thread: brookville 32 build ....gonna be a monster

Tweet

well guys the frame went off for powdercoat sat and should see it back by weeks end . it was a long road and many hours to get ready but im sure the outcome will be great , the entire car was built in steel then broke down , i also may have found a paint hookup for the body as well

I have been following with high interest your build along with the informative discussion it has created. I am building a Brookville 32 also so there is good reason for me to pay attention what is going on as you build yours. I'd like to ask what tire size and brand you are using, front and back.
Thanks

Your Deuce is going to be amazing. Everything on it is just so well done and cool. Really envy you.

Don

Where did you get your frame?

here is a few pics of what i got done, i even had my lil helper sanding some body braces before paint ....at 6 years old she can sand like no other

got the clutch pedal assemble hooked up with my z bar i modified to fit the car . also got the shifter fitted . the other picture is my powdercoated bellhousing and oil pan ....looks pretty sweet

Hey, aren't there child labor laws against this sort of thing? Looks like she knows her stuff and is doing a good job. You might be having another hot rodder coming up there.


You have really put some very nice parts and work in this car. It just screams hot rod, from the blower motor to the louvered deck lid. The finished car is going to be fantastic.

thanks don , i appreciate the kind words . i keep the garage door down so i dont get into trouble for having young cheap labor ....i feed her some cheese sticks and some juice boxes and she is ready for work...

yeah she really likes the car and she wants me to paint flames on it.

one of the many reasons im powdercoating is . i live on the jersey shore and there is alot of sand in the streets and little pebbles , cars get pretty abused down here with it. the other reason is the durability while working on it also .

oh yeah thanks for the compliment on shifter that is the 14th one i tried for looks and now im happy

gettin close to completion for the frame being all done .....

thanks guys .....im running nitto in the rears and firestones in the front ..its oddball but looks good i got the threads i like ...ill get the sizes for you as soon as look at them again . but to inform you im running 17s in the back and 15s in the front , if i were to do it again i would have sprung for the 16in rims in the front to balance the rim size as you look at the car at a side shot ...but mine still looks cool

whose shifter are you using?

got it out of the moon catalog..

Dave,

That's one of the best looking frames I've seen in person or in a magazine. Great work.

Oh - and I like Cool Whip myself . . .

Thanks, Jack,
Lotta time and fun doing it(plus a buck or two). I'll have better pictures in my journal eventually.

Tell me about a buck or two. My wallet has stretch marks.
