So you want to build a '32 Ford Roadster? Friday, September 30, 2011. Shortening a Torque Tube. I f you are building a vintage ride like I am, you probably want to go with a closed drive line. When you hear the term "closed", it means the driveshaft is enclosed by what is known as a torque tube. The torque tube bolts from the transmission mount on the K member to the rear end and the rear radius rods attach to it. So, I found a complete banjo rear end off Craigslist for $250! What I normally do is get a ...

I've been so busy with the '32, grinding, welding, sanding, chasing parts, etc. I disassembled the front end to sand down and smooth out the metal after the media blasting. I found a lot of pits which I expected and some little issues that I had to fix. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Http:/ www.hotrodvideo.com. Stewart Warner Mechanical tach drive for a ford fl.

So you want to build a '32 Ford Roadster?: Running Gear
http://builda32fordroadster.blogspot.com/2010/11/running-gear.html
So you want to build a '32 Ford Roadster? Sunday, November 7, 2010. So, once I had the front end parts together, I needed to find an engine, transmission and rear end. It makes the most sense to find as much of that together as possible because it will save you time and money in the long run. So, I started looking for deals on running gear. I mostly looked on Craigslist, Ebay, the HAMB and Fordbarn. Now, I was damn lucky to get all this at that price! So, now I have all my running gear! Most guys remove ...

I went to the Long Beach swap meet in January when I was in LA for the Grand National Roadster Show. I went with the purpose of finding a vintage SW mechanical tach drive for a flathead. Believe it or not, the first vendor I went to had exactly what I was looking for at a really low price! I bought it of course. I'm glad I got this one and it has nice...

If you are building a "catalog hot rod", it's easy, just order everything from Speedway and bolt it together. But when you do that, it looks like what it is, a generic car using off shore made parts from a catalog. Yuk. Ivan has had this stuff stored in his dry attic for years so most of his stuff is pristine. This is a good thing to have!

The first thing I had to do to the frame was enlarge the 2 holes in the side of the frame where the original rivets held the cross member onto the frame to 7/16th and that also is the size of the bolts needed to bolt the shock mounts to the frame. Placing it this way told me where to tack weld the assembly in place for a more precise fit. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Http:/ www.hotrodvideo.com.

I did buy some Brookville horns but they did not match the contour of an original '32 Ford frame correctly. I finally found a pair from a fellow HAMBer and went to work. Now I can add a front spreader bar with a license plate or a car club plaque! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Http:/ www.hotrodvideo.com.
