Welcome to RRR, What are you planning?
The frame was out of a race car so I will be cutting out some of the roll bars and some of the floor. With doing all that it will give me much more room to sit. The body I am leaving alone. The motor runs great so I'm leaving it the way it is. The trans that is in it now is a manual 3 speed and I've decided to to put an automatic in it witch I got from my friend.

Buildin' it his way, one piece at a time...
good luck on your rebuild...
also... your ride is not a 32 ford... not sure what it is, the body line is unique especially on the doors.. my guess is it is a custom job from a few different bodies, the doors look short to be a factory coupe...

Yeah I understand why you and everybody else thinks that. If you take a close look at the car you would see a 32 three window coupe in there somewhere.....Lol. The doors were cut down and where the doors would have gone to it was filled in with metal.

I hate to tell you but that has never been a 32 Ford, too many tells, body belt lines, door hinges, rain gutters. The cowl looks to be a 1930 Whippet.
I swore it was a 32 Ford, that is what I was told when I bought it, but when you said it was a 1930 Whippet I checked into it. I feel that you are right. I looked at a few pictures and they show all the characteristics of my car.[cl
