Vintage Rides

This is just the mock up engine with the blower on for a look at the finished product.

Traditional 4 bar rear setup, all stainless and polished.

Here is the front end of the chassis coming together nicely.

Here is a shot of the body with the flat floor now installed.

Here is the day that we picked up the complete body mated to my new chassis.

Introduction / Overview:
Decided a while ago to construct a street rod. Then decided on a 32 Ford Tudor sedan for my project. I plan to have the car finished for the Australian Street Rod Nationals in 2011 in Geelong Victoria.

Drivetrain:

Drivetrain consists mainly of tried and true parts eg: SHP Dart 400ci Chev, Blowershop 671 blower, EFI, AFR heads, SHP pistons, ARP fasteners used throughout.

Transmission will be a Turbo 400 full manual transmission and the rear end is a 9" Ford diff using a full Strange centre consisting of a Trutrac 3.55 and Aluminium case.

Full reproduction chassis, fully boxed and fitted with an Independent front end all polished stainless steel, Rear end is supported by a Stainless Steel Triangulated 4 bar system. Front brakes measure 330mm with twin piston calipers, while rear measure 315mm with single piston calipers.

Wheels:
Wheels are Boyd Coddington Harm Style, 17 x7 and 18 x 9, will probably end up using Bridgestone Tyres, 205 and 255.

Body:
Reproduction Fibreglass 32 Tudor body by Deuce Customs here in Melbourne Australia. Paint colours will probably be Silver and Blue with an Orange pinstripe separating the two, the paint work wont be done till about October.

Interioir:
I have purchased a Glide split front bench and the upholsterer will make the rear seat and then cover it all in a Tan Leather.Dash consists of standard 32 dash panel with a Dakota Digital panel. A Lokar floor shifter will select the right gear and when stationary a Lokar Handbrake assembly will hold everything from moving.
