1. your joking right?- It's fun giving you a hard time so I do.

2.the period that involves going fast on available parts and still looking like a street leagle car.- Yeah but that could cover '40's, '50's, '60's and they're all very different styles.

3.how the hell can i drink smokeables.......are you using smokeables? - I don't drink at all really and I gave up the smokeables LONG ago, Theres no way I could do this job if I was still smoking.

BTW- It's "Deuce" coupe, They're a bit common but they're cool when done right.

Heres my dream '32 I built, 1/25 scale of course.

Chopped, channelled, suicide front mount, six Strombergs feeding a big old Hemi, quick change, Halibrand mags and a '29 grille shell because I can't stand the '32 shell.

yes!!!!!!!!!! i love the rake, i love the strut bar front end, i love the strombergs. i want to do a 32 ford or a 34 chev 3 window. i want a 3-5 inch chop from the top and maybe a 1-2 inch channel on the body. some small minnior body mods and thats it, the rest of the focus will be frame ,drivetrain, and suspention. im lookin to do a 8.8 for the rear( i know the 9 inch is the hotness) with 4:56-1 gears, a t5 wide ratio or a c4. for the engine im thinking a 347 6pack with fuctional zoomies that can be capped for street use. i want to retain the front suspention with beam and spindles and strut bars, but set it up for the best handling it allows. for the rear i want either a IRS from a thunder bird or a solid axle with 4 link with watts link. wheels and tires are gonna be a tad out of time line, 17x8 front with a 45 side wall and 17x as wide as i can go with a 55 side wall. the whole mess will sit a mere 5 inches off the ground. the color either a satin black or a gloss white. the inside will be roll cage and good bucket seats.....most likely focus eaps recroes 8)
