On the doors Matt, I think I am going to rust them out a bit!! Not sure yet! Maybe just primer/ rust primer!! Thanks for all the comments guys!!

Re: Progress:'32 Ford (Rat)

Very well done so far, although beeing an european i don't see the interest of owning a rusted car.

Re: Progress:'32 Ford (Rat)

It's a hotrod, that's how most of them start out. However, alot of them are restored.

Some still in California live as though they are stuck in the 50's. Go to rat-rods in your search engine or even Ol' Skool Rodz.com. But if this was a real car, I would still drive it!! Thanks for the comments. No more pics until it is done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Progress:'32 Ford (Rat)

Man that's one butt bruisin' little car there. Hot, though. Perhaps leave the doors white like that? Aren't these cars in progress, so maybe he got a deal on some mint doors? That may make it too busy, though. I just kinda liked the look. Is it me or do the front tires sit funny on those wires? Great freakin' build, nonetheless. Just fantastic.

The doors are primered, just like you said, maybe he got a deal on them, or just maybe that is as far as he got to getting something restored. Yeah there is no suspension on this car whatsoever!! The front tires and the wire wheels are from the '34 Ford Lindberg truck kit, they have a lip around the edge. After looking at the box art and a few rat-rods, they seem to fit that way!! Thanks willimo for the comments and hope to see you at the Atlanta show!!!!!!!!
