My 32 Coupe *WARNING FIBERGLASS*

[Gastrick]

This is my 32 3W coupe. Yes it's fiberglass but I love it just the same. I got it from my dad so I'll probably never get rid of it. Nothin fancy or exciting here. It has a typical 350/350 combo. This car has thousands of miles on it, but it's not finished. I'm gathering parts to put a swing out windshield in it and I'm adding a factory type 4 piece hood, sides, and grill. I'm giving it sort of a late 40's style lakes treatment. I'm in the process of making a tube/push style rear bumper for it. I'll post a how to on that maybe after the week-end when I get further along. I've also got some bomber seats for it and I've started to make some matching door panels. I've only got these two pics right now. I'll shoot some more soon.

That is a no frills ride. Flat paint, minimal flash. That thing just commands respect. Who cares if it is glass.

Very cool...

That is one sweet ride you have there.
That it has some history with your family makes it even better.
And unless someone is actually rapping their knuckles on it, why mention the fiberglass?
The car is perfect, you will just have to really work to get any type of "rust" effect.

I love it too. That tire and wheel combo really puts it over the top for me. When my wide whites wear out, you've convinced me to go with blackwalls too.

That car has the perfect look. As long as you don't paint fake rust on it. It is perfect as is, glass and all.

Nope. No fake rust for me. It is what it is and I dont make any attempts to hide it.

I bought the bomber seats used and made the frames.

I made the door panels. Here's the threads about it.
