Good to see the camera lady's roadster being worked on Derek. My Brookville roadster came pre-assembled but I have reinforced inner frame work including a dash shelf . It's handy for putting stuff on as I don't have door pockets. Also to the consternation of some, mine runs a High Performance Chevy 350 & a B&M transmission that hasn't "blown up" ........yet . Regards from the UK 🇬🇧👍
@@geofo60 there's probably more 32 Fords powered by small block Chevy's than any other engine. I'm sure the first one went in 1955 the first year they came out. I like my Fords but it's a lot easier to put a SBC in a 32 than a Ford.
I would think the camera lady is over the moon that her roadster is getting some attention. I’ve never heard of anyone welding the fire wall in place until you mentioned it. Got to have a cowl vent. Nice job. Take care both, best wishes.
@@coldstreamrodshop it's hard to believe there's still some people either keeping the Ford or putting in a Ford because 90 percent are putting those quick to BLOW cheap to build Chevy's 👎👎👎🗑️🗑️🎯
Does Jerry have a website, or UA-cam Channel Derek? Also, once you weld up the firewall to the Cowl, I assume you will never be able to replace that firewall to cowl seal?
@@martyscncgarage5275 No sorry he doesn't. I'm hoping he'll stay in touch and keep me updated with his project. It would be nice to see it on the road.
@@coldstreamrodshop would have been nice to see what he did to his firewall as you described. I'd often thought of welding the firewall to the cowl. Still not sure why Ford did this.
@@martyscncgarage5275 only in 1932. I think it was a new spin on the assembly line. I don't think Ford expected us to be driving them 70-80+ mph either. Sorry for the confusion with Jerry, it's Kugelkomponents on Instagram. They built a 32 roadster that went to the AMBR show last year. He welded and reinforced the cowl on it. Not sure if they have a UA-cam channel.
@@coldstreamrodshop Im very new to the 32 Ford. I understand there is adjustability to help align doors etc. I've still got to get back on my Roadster, Brookville body on a modified original 32 frame. I fought it a lot during mock up to align new Rootlieb butterfly hood sides, grill shell and cowl, along with what I considered to be excessive space between the body and fuel tank. (We've chatted about this before. I'll be getting back to it after my COE is done
@@martyscncgarage5275 I only welded my firewall in once I had door alignment on my frame. Yes that's right the firewall to cowl gasket is in for good once the firewall is welded in. I think you can still make some door adjustments with shims if needed.
