We like the coupe stories. We have a "32 Sport Coupe, in the shop for restoration. 5 window coupes may be a bit easier to deal with. Good luck!

Wow that's a rare body style. I've never seen a 32 sports coupe or a B400.

This helps me wrap my head around this stage…similar to what I’m tryin to do with a 31 coupe body (cab), cowl and doors and the back end body of a 30 s sedan. Was purchased for a rod project in 2014. Was together as a pickup ,bed included with extreme rust . Started in again after a year and half off , a house move etc. Hope your shops warm . Thankful for your presentations on this brutally -4, windchill-27, wind close to 40 mph, cold day in Kansas🌻 , just keeping garage above freezing today . Like what you do👊🏼

Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it. I have wood stoves in my garages. We haven't gotten any super cold weather yet. Mostly around freezing. Hope it stays that way, garage warms up faster!

We’ve had some -8 I don’t think I would survive much colder than that. Take care.

Hey I think it's fantastic you're learning this bodywork, there's some guys that can build those from flat sheets of steel.
@coldstreamrodshop Жыл бұрын
Yes I aspire to be like them but I think it will take many many years to attain that extreme level of skill!

Do you work with body shims for getting the body squared as I haven’t seen any. And what about chassis felt. Thanks for posting the progress, Derick.
@coldstreamrodshop Жыл бұрын
I try not to use any shims since I'm reconstructing and have the opportunity to put it square. I always prefer to use the same frame as the body will stay on. If the body gets switched to another frame, shims may have to be used. I do use body welting when the body is finished and goes on the frame.
@timferriss905 Жыл бұрын
Ok I understand the process of you building from the subrails up so you squared every thing up as you go to that chassis. Thanks for you reply and advise.

Wish I could put together a deuce roadster or five window, or even a 27 roadster on deuce rails, where can I get some deuce rails without it costing an arm and a leg?
@coldstreamrodshop Жыл бұрын
My friends order the American stamping rails from Speedway and then build them. Everywhere I've seen boxed 32 frames with cross members are around $2500 US plus shipping. That's what I've had to pay. The original ones I work on came with the bodies. They're near impossible to get.
@michaelgillespie1206 Жыл бұрын
@@coldstreamrodshop yeah, that's what I know, thanks for the reply, I remember seeing one place that made them in front and rear half sections for the left and right sides, you do all the finish work and add the cross members. At the time they were about $1200.00 and could be shipped U.P.S.

Derek, you mention the NY body is an early one. Is there some difference with a late one ?
@coldstreamrodshop Жыл бұрын
Harold I thought there was based on my conversation with the owner but it's more that doors aren't original to this body. Having said that there is a lot of variation between like parts. It was common on the assembly line for them to have parts of different sizes and fit accordingly on the line.
