Wow....it has sure been a long time since I last posted in here! I just dont get on the forums like I use to. But.....as long as I am here... I need some input from you guys. I have always been a "steel is real" kinda guy, but I am just now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel on my 41 Ford 2dr sedan build and am looking forward to my next project.

I am just so sick and tired of dealing with rust, tear downs, rebuilds, fixing others screw ups from previous builds....etc...etc....Soooo...I have decided that my next upcoming build will be all NEW stuff including a (say it aint so) fiberglass body....

I have decided for sure that I want to build a 32 Ford. I know they have been done to death, but I have NEVER built or owned one. Besides, Im going for a less traditional body style and building a Cabriolet. The company making the body is countylinerods.com out of South Carolina. Ever heard of em? Looks like a quality body plus it comes with a top and electric windows installed.

I was going to purchase a chassis from another company that had all the eng/trans, steering box, front and rear 4 bar brackets and brake cyl. mount already welded in.

The rep from County line rods advised me against purchasing a pre-welded frame because he said the engine mounts may not be in the right place and it will be hard to find the correct suspension parts to match up to the frame.

What say you all??? I was under the impression that any 32 car body would fit on a 32 car frame and since these have been built for many years as aftermarket, the frame and said mounts should work on my build.

Am I wrong, or is the rep from county line being overly cautious??

As always....thanks in advance for your input....
(I will attempt to attach a couple photos of body and frame)
