Thanks for sharing. I'm enjoying the post.
Me too, me too, thoroughly enjoying your journey in building this car. Thanks for taking the time to show us.
I'm just hoping that as I begin to do something STUPID, you guys will stop me...
Looking for more info on this car:

1929-1932 Ford Roadster by Zolland Design - Static 1 - 1280x960 - Wallpaper
Swedish design company
That is one of my favourite "32 Roadsters and I too have that photo here in the 'puter. Not much I would change on that car if it fell into my ownership....
Got the blower snout today...

Putting that motor in a '32 Roadster reminds me of what my best friend and drag racing partner used to tell me. Marv always said, "Too much is just about right."
That sums it up nicely.... "Just about right"!:LOL::eek::LOL:
Color me green with envy.;)
Looking sweet!
The intake didn't fit because it wasn't relieved for the angled feature that is the valve cover sealing surface.

Still needs a bunch of cutting to get the that distributor in there. These first cuts let me know I'm on the right track..

Nice work. It looks like you're half way there on the dizzy.
