    Lightbulb 32 roadster idea

     



    This may be an unusual request, I would like to see if I can get some actual drawings or plans of a 32 chassis with all the measurements so that I can build up a chassis. Is there any help out there ?

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    I got a big plastic coated one off a shop in Florida via Ebay, and it's REALLY good! They're on there all the time - just punch in "1932 Ford" on the ebay search engine. The Wescptt ones are good too but there's more detail on these plastic laminated ones.

    Laminated plastic ! how do they build that up ? Iv'e heard of fibre glass and steel, has this laminated plastic been around for long ?
