Thread: One way to build a '32 sedan

Tweet

Ken. Thanks for taking the time to post pics and explain your latest work. I had noticed the sub rail work in a previous pic and was wondering what you were going to use for the rear floor pan. I feel better about cutting my front crossmember loose and moving it 1/2" forward after reading that you cut down your A and B post another 3/8". The guys here thought I had lost my mind, but it has to have the correct look. Right? Enjoy the build. It is looking great!

Don-Thanks, no golf, they wouldn't let me drive the golf cart I built.
I'll take a shot of my truck next to the sedan, the sedan sits so much higher than the truck, I'm afraid of nose bleed driving that thing.

Dave- Thanks, business seems to be getting better, I hope things are getting better or at least not worse for everyone.

deucef4papa-I bought a Direct Sheet metal replacement floor to start with, then cut it up to make it fit. Because of the way I do my frame for the channel it just has to be cut and paste.
I truly believe you should build it until you are happy with it. You are your own worst critic. Thanks for the nice comments.


I have been working on the windshield frame, (almost fits) the rocker panels, and the floor. I had the hood louvered and powder coated. the heat from the oven took some of the shape out of the hood, I will re shape it when I mount it.
When ever I weld panels together I paint the merging surfaces with weld able primer to discourage any rust, once you weld this stuff together their isn't anyway to get paint in there.

Let me take a guess about that golf cart Ken. Could it perhaps look like the one below.

I was just thinking we haven't heard any updates from you for a bit. Glad to see you are still making progress on the Tudor. Looks great. This one might just become your favorite out of the lot.
