I have a 1932 chevy 5w coupe that im working on, its a very good project and I have everything to put it back together and get it back on the road. I have to re-do some of the work but for the most part the car is very solid and very sweet!!

also im building a 1931 ford 5w coupe for my mom so I have 2 sweet little coupe projects goin on at the same time and hope to get both of them running and driving at the same time....that's my goal, the 31 ford coupe is my moms dream car and I bought it for her a few years ago and now im really getting started on it due to me having some major health problems but im better now and my mom has been in and out of the hospital so things have been put on hold but everything is looking up so here starts the BUILDS!!!

thanks. I think the 32 will come pretty fast as I have everything but a drive shaft and gas and brake lines but those are small things. [dr

Dang fine projects.
I happen to need a Model A coupe, so watch your back. Your mom should watch hers too. I'm going to put a Y-block in my dream Model A.
Keep on tinkering.

93... When I made the switch from restoration to rod building my dream build was going to be a 32 CHEVY ... however I moved to Michigan and tripping over FORD A's in every barn ...could not find a Chevy to save my arse .... We all will be watching and hope your health lets you do it .......
 
im gonna re-do the back half of the frame as it comes up to high and I want it to sit lower but im goin to get the engine mounts to test fit everything and make the tranny bracket. [;)

I understand. they are hard to find and I had just the right amount of money at the time to buy this coupe and start building it. I hope I can have it running in about 2 months
 
I haven't got much done but been trying to re-make the windshield post as they was cut out and had just rolled metal put in place, so far its goin ok but I have to get it 100% right. I also have sheet metal in to get rest of the floors done in the 32 chevy and to start the floor in my moms 31, so within the next few weeks I should be getting pics posted of the major progress!!
 
hate to say this but the 32 has to be put on hold for a short time. I have been trying to sell the 35' chevy sedan and been having nothing but tire kickers and BSers so I talked it over with a buddy and we are goin to get this back back up running and driving and get the title in my name and make it road worthy and then I don't think ill have much of a problem selling it and ill get a lot more out of it so I can put more into my 32' chevy coupe and the 31' ford coupe.

ps: im only giving myself a month to get it back to road worthy standards [;) ill let you all know when I start on it as we keep getting snow and I cant get it moved until the weather gets a bit better.
