Thread: One way to build a '32 sedan

The 17" wheel sure is going to crowd your left hand against the door, but it looks good mounted in that photo. Don't give up on that size wheel too quickly. You may be surprised. Brings back memories.

Yep, I'm going to revisit this after I'm further along.

J. Robinson- I have had the very same thoughts, I know one thing about this wheel it was in a pretty good wreck. Someone straightened it but the scars are still there.

I worked on the roof for the last couple of days. These little brackets are for fixing the curvature of the roof. I welded those in then I'm attaching this 1/2" tubing in the arc of the roof, then I can lay the sheet metal on that. I slotted the tubing so the brackets slide inside it. When it's all in place and welded up I will trim the brackets so they will blend into the tubing.

Good to see you back focused on our Tudor Ken, and it is looking good.. Now me and old retired panelbeater wouldn't of thought of doing those neat little braces for the roof support. You see i would of taken a short cut somehow and then cursed myself for been to lazy to do the job correctly the first time.
