Why Traditional Hot Rods Are Better Than Anything Else!!!

Why Traditional Hot Rods Are Better Than Anything Else!!!
Definitely lose the swing pedals!! Although a popular mod back in the day, especially when using a hydraulic clutch,. they had their downside too. Tried using them in my 36 coupe and found the firewall would FLEX when applying the brake pedal! Not only that, they interfered w/ taller Edelbrock valve cover on my Olds engine.... The very simple solution today involves using '39 Ford floor pedals. This ONE YEAR ONLY setup makes both clutch and brake linkage a breeze! Only problem, of course, is finding them today, (and most all will need to be re-bushed...)
I vote for a flathead,1949-53.
Any reason you prefer the 49-53 engine?
I'd like to have that truck shown driving at the beginning of the video!
That's a fun one! Had it a little over a decade and put lots of miles on it!
So it's ready for the next owner/driver? How far are you from Central Florida? I have a 64 f250 stock with only 65k farm miles shipped from Iowa.
@sufferedenuf lots of people have tried to buy it, no one has been successful! I'm about as far from Florida as you can get, north west Washington.
Id say that tranny has been in 2... as in Too Long!!... my guess is thats all they had when they built it..... great channel!! SSS...
Loving the "autopsy" on the '32! Super interesting all the modifications through the years! Hardest decision is....preserve of start over? Can't wait to see where you take her! Go Seattle Speed Shop, keep moving forward!
Couldn't agree more!
Keep the k-member mod, clean it up.
That is the plan. It's dependent on finding a bellhousing.
That looked like one of those jobs to put of indefinitely, well done. What would have been the benefit of that gearbox?
Stronger than a 39 gearbox.
I'd keep the trunk floor sender access, it's a history point. Maybe tidy it up a little? Same with the transmission mount. Eradicating these just puts an old car back into the belly-button 'street rod' ('80s interpretation) camp IMHO. The swing pedals, possibly '53 era Ford items, was also a common swap to achieve clutch brake pedals with dual master-cylinders that mounted to the firewall and could be chromed to look good. Space fitment of such pedals was often a problem, particularly on channeled cars. Extended pedals would alter the throw of the cylinder push rods and cause more modifications to be needed, not unlike how Lee on LG Speed and Kustom channel had on his '32 sedan project. Mart, on Mart's Garage channel went for the underfloor method of pedals, but even he had metalwork to get his setup functioning correctly on his '32 sedan. I hope this info. helps folks.
Definitely agree. We don't want to erase it's history. Just make sure it's functional and safe.
Do you guys have a 1934 Ford? Hood.
We don't currently. Sorry
You can do it 😂😂
Thanks!
Did you see the Pierce Arrow dash the other Mat put in a week ago? At least you can still get off the floor, I had to get a lift or quit building cars. should have got it 20 years ago.
I did! I get most of the spy shots before the general public.
Lots of potential, great car. Swing pedals no bueno...lose them. That is an interesting looking closed drive conversion. Have you tried Iron Trap for the trans to flattie adaptor?
Matt at Iron Trap may have what you need. Whether he'd sell it, is another question. Getting him to pencil copy an adapter to paper/thin card would give you a template that any decent plasma shop would be able to copy/scan and 'burn out' a new one, not unlike Lee on the LG Speed and Kustom (YT) channel does regularly.. Having the code then for others who might want reproductions, would/could be useful too.
The bellhousing adapter I am looking for is a cast aluminum bellhousing. I wish it was as simple as a plate
It is very interesting
The Packard trans was an older modification more at home behind the flathead....why would anyone do that behind a SBC when a Chevy trans was better? Keep the Packard and go flatty...IMO.
I agree. I think that was done before with a flathead, and then the SBC later.
Usually the first thing I do when buying an old car, especially if it's been modified in any way, is crawl underneath. That tells you more about the overall quality of the car, and also the workmanship that might have gone into it. You'd love the '32 sedan I've got currently, the underside is pretty amazing for a 90+ year old rig.
Knowing some of the stuff you've had in the past, I'm sure it's a nice one!
Thanks Matt.... Love your content , Easy to listen to and no Crap music....👍😎
I appreciate that! I experimented with music. But it is all so common and used by everyone, I can't stand it.
Bravo!

The 32’ is my favorite of the early Fords. Still a purist as far as drive train. I totally support era based hot rod themes. With old speed parts etc.
As the son of a 32 Ford 5 window owner, which he has had since 1957, told me that the 5 window was produced at the Ford plant and the 3 window was subsidized at a non Ford plant, when you have them side by side you can see the difference between them, especially around the cowl area of the body along with the hood, I am a fan of hot rodding these cars and I like them as originals, I have been very fortunate to have been around street rods my whole life. I was born in 65 in Tulsa, Ok and my dad was a member of The Early Rods of Tulsa, our vacations centered around going to NSRA events and gathering of old cars period, I felt and still feel lucky to experience this in my life, I have 3 brothers, 1 a year older and the other 2, 7 1/2 and 8 1/2 years younger, I don't know how they feel about the life we had but it was awesome when people saw 6 people getting out of that car, my dad put a rumble seat in which was where my older brother and I would ride after my 2 younger brothers were born and if it rained me and my brother didn't get wet as long as we were moving down the road, we were fortunate enough that we didn't have to many times that it did rain. Best times of my life, my dad still has the car and I'm suppose to inherit the car, my mother has passed on and my dad is still around, he's 90 and still gets around with the greatest of ease, he still drives and takes care of himself, he is who has inspired me my whole life, even thru the times we haven't seen eye to eye. Rock On everybody!!!
My roadster has a flathead with a Winfield 1A cam, Navarro heads, Cyclone 3x2 intake.
I bet that is fun!
Amazing car. My vote would be a full race flathead built like we did back in the day. And must have Isky 400 jr cam.
We have another flathead here in for a rebuild , with a old Isky 400 Jr in it.
@@Seattle_Speed_Shop That would be awesome! When I was in High School in Port Angeles many, many decades ago I put a fullrace 48 mercury flathead in my Model A. Had a Isky 400 Jr of course!
@supernovaVII I bet that was awesome! What era was did you build that in?
@@Seattle_Speed_Shop It was in the winter of 1959. Did not have access to all the great stuff available nowadays for engine swaps so the engineering of 17-year-old kid for the installation would look pretty bad by today's standards. But it must have not been too bad because it survived the abuse of a few owners after me! Had to smile when you were going through the sins of the past on the 32.
@@supernovaVII incredible! That's really cool to hear about.
Very cool! Looking forward to the progress on this one.
Thanks! You and me both!
Olds or Buick with the Packard trans?
Put an olds in it!
Packard trans were just as solid as a lasalle, harder to come by. I have one in the shelf
Yup, really hope you can retain the Packard; they were very popular too! Engine choice may very well be dictated by what ADAPTER you can find, so keep that in mind...... This old fart loves your channel and "Old School Rules" approach. Keep it real!
@@robbh.6505 can make an adapter to fit anything!
We're gonna try and keep the Packard!
put an early small hemi in it
Early Dodge 241 or 270 is actually a good fit! Saw one just this past Saturday at the Riverdale Drags near Toutle!
I've owned a chopped '34 3 window since 1958. It had a '56 Chevy 265 power pac. I drove it long distances to Street Rod Nats for many years before upgrading to a 327 . I'm 85 now and
Very cool!
If you really wanted to be "trick", a 57 -283 with the Vette aluminum valve covers and a 57 style FI setup. That would make it really "Period" !!! If it still has the Banjo RE, do a Quick Change if money is available so you could have fun with the gears !!
I put those Vette aluminum valve covers on my 265 in my '34 in the late 1950s.
That would be super cool!
I’d go with the 5 window and sell the 3!!😎😎
327 chevy
YES
My family was well aquatinted with Tony Marino,he was a long time friend and customer of my dad. Wow what surprise to hear his name as I surf through TH-cam ! Get after your projects,times a waistin' !
Very cool! I'd love to learn more about him and his collection.
Well I just so happened to have a 1957 283 with a tri power on it with polished aluminum valve covers and oil pan and iam Sumner Washington
PERFECT!
Thanks! We actually have a few early small blocks and flatheads to choose from. But I appreciate the offer!
Do you still have the hemi engine?
I do. But thar is getting saved for my own someday 32.
chevy truck steering wheel
Do you know what year?
Doesn't matter which engine goes in it , that choice is down to the new lucky owner..... Looking forward to you sharing the rebuild with us..... 😎👍
Very true!
Matt....your opinion...what range of money could that 32 pull in the hotrod market today
Hmmm good question. I'd think 20-30k range? But not sure.
Am a Ford guy I never liked the SBC in Ford trend. Then I started watching Matt on Irontrap and his interest in traditional cars really turned me on. When he got the 33 Tudor with a 265 in it, he explained that it had been done in that time frame as were many other non-Ford swaps, I accepted it. Matt went on in a recent video about traditional hot rod engines and how there was only a couple of years between the Chevy and the Hemi and therefore it too was a traditional engine I had to agree. I like that you would only use a period correct 265-283 to put in it, IF you do not go with a flat head. SO make it happen.
99% sure it will be ford powered again!
Rocket engine 🚀. That’s a great find, can’t wait to see how it shapes up.
Also, cool shirt 😉
Rocket would be cool, but I'm trying to encourage him to find an old Kettering Cadillac.... Mostly because he has a dual four intake I gave him....
That would be very cool. But unfortunately is one of the engines I don't have anything for!
@@Seattle_Speed_Shop Matt, I've got a 57/58 Olds J2 3x2 intake you can have.... I'll never do anything with it.
Remarkable '32! No doubt it was a hot rod! Modified radiator and engine mounts are dead giveaways! Curious what rear is in the car? Look thru the little books, when the SBC came out the hot rodders ditched the flathead in pursuit of speed! Whatever you and the owner choose will be epic! Just a gorgeous piece of history! Can't wait to watch the preservation/rebuild! Go Seattle Speed Shop, keep moving forward!
It's a banjo still!
@@Seattle_Speed_Shop Super cool! Car just gets more interesting! Can't wait to see how you bring her back to life! Go Seattle Speed Shop, keep moving forward!
Too bad Albert Drake passed a couple of years ago, he might have known some useful history. If you know anyone with some of his books it might be worth researching there. As for redoing the car, I vote for offing the swing pedal and ultra clunky master cylinders on the firewall....................always hated that look. After that flathead or very early SBC would be fine. You know I'm old enough to appreciate that SBCs (done correctly) ARE period correct for even a '50s style car. That upholstery is very mid '50s looking style to my eye with the metallic threading and chrome beading. Wide whites and full cover hubcaps would be the jam (I'm putting '55 Packard Clipper caps on my sedan for just that reason/look).
I'm on the look out for his books to take a peak at. And as always I appreciate your prospective on the build. Swing pedals have got to go, or be heavily re-engineered. I'll show the issues in the next video! There are some older pictures if it with full wheel covers and I think you're spot on with the timeline of the interior.
@@Seattle_Speed_Shop Wouldn't be surprised if the firewall is cracked around the mounting holes from fatigue.
Nice ....I think an old Cadillac engine.... with dual four barrels would be perfect. 😉 I'll be over today, Matt. Edit; I just took a look at this car....very good shape and more mods than meet the eye... One should be very obvious to old timers..... something is missing.
Thanks for coming by Mark!
@@Seattle_Speed_Shop That's okay.... But I didn't do anything but stand around and get in the way....
If it's going to be period correct, not a Chevy motor. Although I do respect that if you go that route, it'll be nothing past a 50's motor. I picked up a '34 Ford three window coupe with a Chevy 350, I pulled that out as soon as I was able to. I'm putting a Flat Head or 351W in it, a Ford in a Ford. That looks like a sweet project, good luck with it.
Thanks!
Neat car, thank goodness it wasn't "updated" to '90s 'street rod' trends!!!!
Thanks!
Stay well
Thanks!
Very cool cool car. Would be great if you could find someone from Portland and old enough to know more history of the car. Does look like early small block at one time but with a Packard trans? Hot flattie at some point would be my bet. Nice find. Now the interior with the metallic threads??? My memory is foggy but what did '58ish Impala have??? Great project.....following.
Odds are VERY good he is correct about the early 55-57 SBC to Packard swap back then. As luck would have it, will also likely be the very adapter to be found today! Seat upholstery looks like "silver thread" material found in many mid-fifties cars. G.M and Mopar come to mind....
I think the trans swap may pre-date the SBC swap and I hope we get lucky and find some info on the car!
Just Picked up a 39 trans for my model a. I want to put it behind my banger. I was under the impression you could still find a kit. Looks like they went out of buisness and out of stock online. Any idea where I could find something?
Berts model A parts in Denver is taking over production. I don't know how long till that is in full swing!
No instructions or didn’t read first?
Seems . Seems like a decent chop on the car. not too radical but nice for the period.. Im guessing 50 hrs of sand blasting..
Model A truck is my favorite.
