The real critical stuff has happened. We’re talking about fitting and welding this original roof back in place, just a few inches lower. But now is the time for the most delicate welding and fitting, the A Pillars. This isn’t unique to this 1932 Ford Tudor, as this is the next step in the process regardless of the car. This is where the grinding and welding begins. There’s no turning back now! The last couple of videos showed you everything that has to happen to plan and prepare to chop an all original 1932 Ford Tudor Sedan, and then how to actually cut it. There is a lot of measuring and taping and measuring and measuring and marking and staring and measuring and staring, and measuring, before any of the cutting starts. Once the top is cut, then the fitting hand welding begins and is a ton of work. Check it out in the link below, and if you missed the first episode on this epic machine, use the link below as well.
This 1932 Ford Tudor Sedan is an amazing survivor. It is completely stock and untouched and has spent the last few decades stored in a storage container in Canada. It recently got shipped all the way to Australia to Bennett’s Customs where it is getting a 48 hour hot rod transformation, and it might even get chopped which is going to piss some folks off I’m sure. But you know what? It’s not ours, so if the guy who owns it wants to chop it then I say chop away!
