I just finished the 3w, its at the interior shop now. Next is the RPU that I bought from Krylon32, He had too many projects and I didn't. The 3W has a 350/400. The RPU has a 350/5speed/Winters Quickchange. Plans are to have it ready for Summer for cross country trip. Dale

Well how about the catagory of "in a few months....."

I am finishing a 31 Chevy Landau Phaeton that I am keeping stock, and from there I have a dilema.

I have a 32 Aussie tub that would go together fast even though I have to get a frame for it, but have most everything sheet metal accept firewall, hood, grille and insert.

The other potential item is a 32 Roadster that I have yet to purchase, but spoke with the owner about this weekend at the Back to the 50's in St Paul. The basket isnt to big, and I am trying to see if I can either work him down on the price, or trade my 33 Chevy Standard 3 Window as partial trade.

So I hope by the end of July I will be working on one or the other.

Don't be hatin' 'cause of the fiberglass. LOL
I would really love to build a stock '32 roadster - but wouldn't hesitate to use a Wescott's or Brookville reproduction body and any pump-in-head flathead.

You see tons of restored Model As, and probably 99% of the '32 roadsters out there are hot rods or hot rod projects, but a stock '32 is a truely rare bird.

Some of us have never got over our obsession with the 1932 Frod. The picture on the left is me and my 1932 Ford in 1970 and the one on the right is my 1932 Ford today. The one I have now is actually a lot better than the one I had in 1970.

This is a great thread, my 32 is a driving in progress car, spent to many years working on the last one so from now on I want to drive them when the sun is out and work on them when its raining out.

Thought about a '32 Roadster in 1961......I had an original grill & shell on the wall for 40 years...so, that's a start and, better late than never.
My project is the theme of a 1956 high school kid, obtaining an original Roadster and souping it up a bit. Obtained many parts in the last 4 years, all have to be original Ford parts ( ok brookville body for now ) and absolutely nothing pass the '56 year. The updated parts have to be as little as possible, even the original motor mounts used.....a kid's budget then had to be well diciplined....in todays world, we have to grin & bear it on paying for the same parts. The old speed equipment, '97's, L-Z gears, banjo steering wheel, K-H 40 spokes, etc, all add to the fun.
Great to see the pictures you guys send in, especially the primered and rusty colored ones.
