One Way To Build A '32 Hyboy
I decided to share this hoping people will enjoy it and maybe help spur ideas for there own build. I'm about 2 years into to this, I like to have two projects going at the same time, when I started this I was collecting parts for a '32 truck. Well one thing led to another and the truck became full time and the roadster got very little attention. Now I have this going and a '32 sedan I'm doing, but this is my priority with a dead line of April. So I will show you where I am today then backtrack with photo's on how I got this far then continue with finishing it.
When I build a car I really try to have a theme and stick to it. I'll start with a rendering and tape it to my tool box so not to stray to far from the original idea.
I'm using,
Dearborn Deuce body
ASC frame rails
Kugel Komponets independent front end
Winters independent quick change rear
LS 7 Chevrolet crate motor
Richmond 6 speed transmission
I'll cover the smaller components as I go along. Here is the rendering and the next is my garage at home. I use a small tire or brake shop lift. Usually I do the chassis at work (all the dirty stuff) but this time because how it has worked out the complete car will be built at my house.
I'm already in trouble the file for the renderings are to large, I'll have to put it up tomorrow.

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
