New to 32 Ford
Guys, I love to learn and read about ways to finish the 32 Deuce I just bought. Besides this forum, are there any other good ones for the Deuce?
This is my first car, earlier than 1963. TONS to learn!
Thanks,

Not to minimize this site as I find it very helpful and friendly, but another excellent site is the Rodders Roundtable. It is a friendly, helpful forum as well with a number of very experienced people. It is one of the oldest sites on the net. Check it out at www.roddingroundtable.com. As for anything Chevrolet, I highly recommend www.chevytalk.org. I frequent the Performance Forum, and it has been like taking a college class in hotrodding the Chevy V8.

Welcome to CHR bucs! Lots of very knowledgeable builders on the site, and a bunch of members with some very fine Deuces!!! Probably not much on a Deuce build that the 32 owners here on CHR haven't already "been there, done that" on....
Might want to take a look in the photo galleries, too.... Some very nice cars in there to draw ideas from....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Thanks, guys. I am looking forward to the new challenge of finishing a Rod opposed to muscle car.
Pictures of the rod should be up by this weekend. For now I only have pics of my 63.

Here's one for photos of any year car, lots of '32's. Nice for picking wheels, paint, etc. Also, lots of info.

Hey Bucs, welcome to CHR. Nice 63 Nova. Top notch job, with that behind your belt, the deuce should be a real show stopper.

Thanks. I want to NOT make the Rod too nice, but more of a HOT ROD that is nice and tough! But not too nice.....
Plans are decent interior about $2,500 to $5,000. Blown 350 or 383, big 325/50/15 or 29x15.5x15 tires with some older style wheels and nice paint. Focal point will be engine and tires.
