You are correct on that, but where am I going to find a old set of cheap, rusty and cracked 32 rails I can build a table out of? Those don't exist in my neck of the woods LOL. That would be the ticket though!
@@phillipshotrodgarage they dont exist anywhere....im getting an old pair of rails for 400 but thats because hes a friend and likes me....next cheapest ive ever seen was 600

Now Rodney, there is no way you are going to get me on a pair of roller skates, or a skateboard either one. I would bust my butt and you'd be laughing at me! The table I'm using is from Harbor Freight. It is a super handy table to have around. It works great for a lot of projects. Thanks for the comment as always buddy!
Good looking start on the body jig, Phillip.... The way that you’ve got it planned out should work just fine... Get her leveled out and throw in some cross bracing and gussets, then she’ll be sturdy enough for anything that you want to do on her... The only other idea that I might consider,, would be to figure out a way to make it so that the front frame rails could be removeable , just Incase you wanted to see what a whole body mock up would look like.... Like I said,, just a idea... Catch you on the next video my friend....
I think having the front frame rails removable would be a great idea. I'll keep the pieces just in case I ever decide to do that. It would be simple to make some tabs to bolt them back on to mock up a front clip. Great idea! Have a good week!
Howdie Phil glad to see ya up and back at it all l did was use Nova front clip and Monte Carlo rear section and channeled them together cause down here ya were looking over 1500 to get badly rails maybe some brackets and some frame spots crazy so took 5 years but got my friend the major welder certified frame welder cost me bk then 12 pack and 100 in gas money he's great out by he figures 1/4 of a inch from A too B not too shabby l wood say and 18 yrs moved 7 times and still holding trying hard too get it out of my barried Queset trying to make beams so can get out of ther to new shop every body is always busy so hopefully this is the year anyway from Canada 🇨🇦 SK keep it up ya got this Phil later 😊
Good morning Phillip,that’s turning out really good and will certainly help aligning the body panels once you get the body bolted back on and I’d be very happy with the welds on those brackets! Great job buddy, have an awesome week! ☕️
Looks like a good start. I think it needs some bracing, but i am sure you have figured it out already. Those welding seams looks good to my eyes. Few yrs ago, a guy from the neighborhood brought a stainless exhaust manifold that needed some modification. It was tig welded and all the weldings looked like beautifully done. I looked inside of the manifold with a flashlight and there was a none of penetration. In my books thats pretty low quality piece. A slightly crappier welds are better with a good penetration than non existing penetration..
I agree. I believe I need to add some bracing. I haven't decided where yet. I had a very good welder to weld a piece of aluminum for me a couple years ago. It eventually broke again, and the weld was all on top, no penetration at all.
Very cool! Are there any changes you have to make to a Model A sub-frame when installing a Model A body on a '32 frame? Thanks for sharing, Phillip! Bro Harry
Yes sir there is. Basically the whole subrail section from around the back of the front seat all the way back to the rear of the body has to be changed to clear the curved 32 frame.
Glade to see you moving right along . Thanks
Thank you! Trying to get it!
Handy as a pocket on a shirt! Add some gussets for Mama and the kids!
Yes sir, gotta make sure it’s strong before crawling under it.
You need a model a table and a 32 table. Could do sooo much with both

I dig the table! Home made tools are so dang cool!
Yes sir! it's going to be super cool! I should have built it a long time ago!

You are so right , everyone is always so busy. Maybe you’ll get it out of there soon. We all have stuff buried somewhere haha.
