Hey Demano, welcome to CHR! Are you going to do a tudor hiboy or a fendered car? Either way it's sounding like a great project.
Others may disagree, but if you're up for building a frame from scratch I'd look at starting with a matched pair of repop rails instead of going straight tube. Speedway sells a set of Model A rails that would give you a period correct approach - 1928-31 Ford Model A Frame Rails - Speedway Motors, America's Oldest Speed Shop
But if you're going hiboy how about using a pair of '32 rails? I think that would be a killer look, especially with that big 429 hanging out there exposed to the world! American Stamping makes a great set of repop rails for the Deuce - American Stamping Corporation: Home Page
If you need it there's also a good tubular crossmember or two from Speedway - 1932 crossmembers from Speedway Motors, America's Oldest Speed Shop Pete & Jake's can help you out with parts like these, too.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
