Thread: Project Blue - 1932 3W Coupe Build

Tweet

Well I certainly didn't get as far as I wanted before the snow last year and I took the Winter off from the build but I am back at it now.

Swapped the rubber on the car for some taller profile tires on the rear and adjusted the 4-link so the tires are centered on the body. Had a seat made, finished up the steering column install as well as the gas pedal and e-brake. Put together the main dashboard (I am going to build a custom underdash for the remainder of the items - it will be fiberglass and painted to match the car).

Got the radiator into its final position, mounted the horns, fan and puke tank. Drive shaft is ordered, should arrive from Denny's next week. Working on trunk insert and battery mount. I am going to go back and center the tank since I changed my mind on the battery location but this gives you and idea of what I am up to.

Soon it will be off to the exhaust shop and then I have to decide if I keep pushing forward to finish the entire mock-up or blow it apart and paint the frame, motor and tranny while I work on the body. Any thoughts or suggestions?
