One very minor item you might want to address before the judges take out their clipboards. The radiator cap appears to be on backwards.

Otherwise, deep breath, refreshing.
 
I gotta agree with GB, that bolt is on the torque side, it should at least have some heavy wire triple wrapped thru the hole. Otherwise, with the exception of that aftermarket AHOOGA horn (they have such bad tone) I find it just fine for local cruising and leave the judging out of the equation !
 
That car looks way over restored to me to be considered as "concourse correct" (wink, wink ;) ;)) but truth be told, I'd like to be the owner :) :)

Nice car anyone would love to have in their driveway and I’m jealous, but it’s far from concourse correct !!��
 
How about the incorrect carburetor ? It is a 94 type carburetor, where it should be a Detroit Lubricator carburetor. I am surprised that David G. did not catch that, although he did state that it was a nice starting point. The horn is not an aftermarket item, it is a late 1932 ford horn.

I'm just confused. Picture is obviously old driver with incorrect almost everything in the engine bay. Is this trying to poke fun at restoring a car "as Henry built it"?
 
Box Car Tom, thanks I will reorient the cap's position

GB, looking for the bolt with the correct raven finish

cas3, the car has the rare dual horn option to give the pleasing mix of beep and arrroga

JM, don't worry, the aging process is only beginning

Mtn Wudy, the correct length of hose is hard to find

David G, thank you (and thanks for sharing your vast knowledge of all things 32)

bandit Nick, but it does have original Polly gas in it

Steve, stay tuned

marko39, true but the accessory leather support strap for rough roads is script

Bill, I used a 1932 Esquire calendar, I will recalibrate
 
Nick,

The horn under the hood is the one referred to, not the one on the fender flange.:)

Happy new year to one and all!
