Dave Trogdon's '32 Ford Roadster


Construction Pictorial

Page 1 2 Next-->


Dave Trogdon's '32 Ford Roadster "Good Start" car is underway out in the chassis shop. The frame has been boxed and the tubular center crossmember is already installed.

Johnathan is c-notching the rear of the frame for axle clearance.

The front crossmember is installed and the front of the frame is being notched for spring clearance.

Dave's frame has been sent to Downs to have the new body fitted. In the mean time, we've been busy ordering the parts to finish the chassis. Here's the suspension parts from Pete and Jakes.  The showroom also has a corner for Dave's parts and is starting to fill up.

Dave's body has just arrived from Downs.

This Downs roadster body is a slick piece. The next step we'll take is to remove the body from the frame and put it in the jig to install the suspension components.

The roadster body has been removed and the chassis placed back in the jig. Here you can see the chrome front I-beam in the process of being installed in the chassis.

The brackets have been placed on the rear end and welded up.

The front spindles are on and the steering box location has been determined.

Now the body is placed back on the chassis to install the brake pedal and mount. We'll also mock up the motor and transmission mounts.
