Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
Nice job. The B.O.B hoses look good....this must have been before you ran it as there are no hose clamps.

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
Yes Graeme, right before I fired it up, I hadn't installed the thermostats yet. The clamps are on the lower hoses. The pictures in my album are in a crazy order, don't know how to put them in the right order. The picture of the dash with the correct gas gauge and oil chex is the final verson, I should probably delete the older one with oil pressure where gas gauge goes.

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
Looks like stock 59a exhaust manifolds, I wanted to use them on my 59a in a stock `32 chassis and steering box. But the left side wouldn't clear the steering box. How did you make them work? Can you post a photo?

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
The exhaust manifolds are stock 37-41 manifolds. I may put some Sanderson headers on later. I will take a picture and post it in the public album of the left side, it does clear the stock steering box. Probably get that done in about and hour. (watching the Seahawk game)

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
You are right, I'm sorry. You guys are missing a ton of players besides the QB.
Pictures should be up there now. Go to my public albums. Probably 3/8 -1/2" clearance. |

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
Love the headlights. Are the '32 commercial lights originals or are they reproductions? If repro, who makes them?

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
The 32 commercial headlights were a pair of NOS ones. Since they were the two bulb type reflectors I put the turn signals in there. The car had 52 Pontiac tail lights that were installed in the 60s. (the chrome parts are a bit larger then the repop 50 Pontiac tail lights). One of the headlights was shelf worn and I had to repaint it but the other was perfect.

Car looks great! Looks like you got the air cleaner figured out after the last picture I sent you.

Re: A good day for a 5w coupe
Right Bob, I only said I made it, not invented it. I saw another like it a couple of years ago but never got to talk to the guy who had it on his car at a Good Guys car show in Puyallup WA. Thanks again for your great pictures.
