Gary49 building my first hot rod

[Spanky]

The place is in Nixa It's gonna take 17 hours to get there.

Yeah, that's a Springfield suburb, not exactly close. (212 miles from here) Oh well, the offer still stands, maybe in a future visit. Love to see your progress when you get it going. Keep posting on here where you have friends.

Thank you Spanky, I sure will.

Selling the T to finance my new project. I'm keeping the LS motor though.

'32 coupe, right? 3 or 5 window? Chopped? Pics when you can.

Hi Spanky,
Three window with 2 1/2" chop. Still waiting on the body but working on the frame in the meantime.

Hohum another chopped ‘32 Ford. Had an all steel 5 window I chopped. Had more fun with my t bucket. Good luck. Hope you enjoy your new project.

Here's an updated pic of Gary's Deuce Coupe, which he's been working on. Looking good, Gary!

Well, I picked up a .040" over 350 short block last month that's in good shape. I got a new pair of aluminum heads for it and later this year I'll put it together. I'm thinking about building another T bucket since they are easy to build and I have to keep busy. Yeah, I know, I need another T like I need a hole in the head. Gotta put that motor in something. LOL

Why not? A t bucket is just an engine stand you don’t have to push around.

I like that.

Hey, Gary . . . a year ago you were talking about building another T (to go with your deuce) and I was wondering if you are any closer to making that happen?

(Gary answered me with a PM)
"Hi Spanky,
Good hearing from you. No, I have a .040" over 350 in pieces. the only thing I did was buy a set of aluminum heads for it. I got in the middle of remodeling our kitchen and so much for that. LOL"
