is it too early to start asking for hub caps?????

I sent the pictures via e-mail to steve. I could build a machine to make mainfraimes but loading a picture would take more time than the restoration!! The wood is all solid and the 4 doors close with the push of a finger. I allready have the short block done with new mains and insert bearings in place. also of course I have the steering box done!

I have pictures but do not know how to input them into the blog?? My son will have to help me!

Well here goes, After too many years of planing I am about to jump in full boat on the 32 sedan. I am opening up this forum to bore the rest of youu with my questions and problems that i am about to undertake. I plan to split the body from the chassis by the first of the year. the bodywork will be done by someone with a paintbooth and paint knowlage. whilr that is being done I hope to do a conplete one the underside, Engine ,trans. drive shaft, rear end and all other goodies underneath. Iplan to paint it Washington Blue, There are severial colors that are the same under differant mnames but for a start it is close for now, My question is there a darker blue that would work on the trim and fenders? Second should I drop the wood wheels in linseed oil now and finish later or do something eles with them? this could be a very long blog as we all know how these project stay on track! But it is a start!:confused:

Just a note on the heat treat of the pushrod. After you bring the tip to red and quench in oil you should polish it to a shinny finish then reheat it until it turn a light straw color, this will temper the end and have a better chance of not chipping.

Should we look at the club projects haveing a min run of the webbing made?

Thanks, how do you get the knob off for plateing?

How do you remove the ride control cable from a 1932 dash? do you have to remove the whole assembily and pull both cables though the dash? Also if this is the case how do you re chrome the knob?
