They got another swap coming up this Sunday

Too bad that deuce with the V8 painted on the radiator has a Chevy and auto trans in it.

 

[WolfRyder]

Sorry Cowboy but that ’32 has a 39 3spd, never has or ever will have an automatic. Also…. It has a period correct SBC, 39 trans, stock front end, stock 32 rear end (3:54), 40 brakes, and is a 100% gennie body / frame. It’s the real deal

WolfeRyder .................
I never heard a small block Chevy called "period correct" in a '32 before. Would a Hemi be "period correct" too ?
MIKE

 

[barryfromvictoria]

yes. for 1951

 

[FL&WVMIKE]

But not for the "period" of the thirties.

Just curious, were the 32 roadsters for sale?, and how much?

 

[WolfRyder]

There is nothing traditional about a SBC in a 32 ford...EVER..SBC were not used prior to 1955 and everything on that build points to pre 55.Please this is fordbarn..were not that stupid

absolutely dumbest statement in a very long while..... so yes, apparently you are that stupid.

That car is a mid 50's style car

SBC and all overheads of that time would be correct for a Hot Rod from that era

 

[blucar]

The Old's, Cad, Studebaker and/or Hemi's would be more period correct than a SBC in the mid-late '50's... In '55-56 the SBC was to new and in limited supply in the wrecking yards, where-as the other V8's had been around since '49..
The Stude V8 was very popular with the hot rodders... it was cheep and ran very well..
Been there, done that... Bill

[barryfromvictoria]

since when were stock 32 headlites period correct on any 32 ford from the 40`s 50`s 60`s ? i hope i don`t get a stupid answer

Ya think?

To look at, starting with the undropped axle it says 40's to very early 50's to me.

Re. lights, we're talking about the black one which has what look like King Bees.

I got my early '30 AA back in 1969. It looked like this when I got it.

Now it is down to the bare frame getting a much needed rebuild and trading the closed cab for an open cab.

Here are some pics I took 12-12
