Thread: Sunday Red: A 1932 Roadster Build Log Started in 2022

Tweet

Light work day today. Summit order arrived today so that motivated me to prep for the machine shop. Just took the last of all the plugs and senders off the block. Also got the block off the engine stand and it is now hanging from my hoist, waiting for me to load it into the car (which will be a whole other adventure!). Block, cam and crank go off to the machine shop tomorrow afternoon.

Also, a couple of parts are now with my sandblasting guy. They said they could turn them around in 24 hours and for $50. That doesn't sound too extortionary so looking forward to seeing how those come out and doing some color tests on them.

Finally, Summit just came out with a 5% back offer for a max of $100. Since I have so many more parts to order, I'm making some moves to try to take advantage of that offer since it's free money to go after.

Anyone here have experience with the 1932 bodies from Speedway motors? They seem to have 1 in stock and I know Speedway has a good reputation. Plus their body is the 2" extended version, which I almost certainly need. Any opinions out there on this body???
