very cool! looks like the car has some potential. word of wisdom, tell your dad to do a LOT of homework before he starts on that thing. There are a lot of tricks to getting the body and grille to sit right on the frame, and getting the suspension just right so the car has a "mean" stance.
If you need any help or tips, let me know. I know a guy who is almost done building his '32 Ford.

I don't mean to be the barer of bad news, but its not a 32 roadster. It's got a 32 grill shell and its on 32 frame rails, but its a 28 or 29 roaster body. When I PM'd you Eric I was thinking of the pickup he has which is a 33.

Digger didn't answer questions for you? He's gonna know more than anyone he started the pig. It's only been sitting like that for as long as I can remember.
