To all the Haters, Look at the Market, Those cars in stock form are worth less than half of one that has been redone as Matt is Doing. He is Making this car much more desirable !
It’s the same in England, a stock Riley saloon from the 30s is worth around £6000, change the body to a period looking ‘special’ roadster and it’s worth £50,000!
That depends on who your target buyer is. A high end hot rod is highly desirable and surely will cost more to build resulting in a big price tag. A true well kept original ‘32 survivor ( which this isn’t) is highly prized by collectors who will gladly pay a high price. Since Matt and Steve are putting this one together, it will be a far cry from a backyard build by a couple of teenagers with whatever parts they could scrounge and make fit.
Transforming this baby into a beautiful traditional hot rod, love it. When you first took the fenders off I was hoping you would put that Ardun engine in but I'm loving the flathead that's going in it.
I would say a lot of these cars wouldn't still exist without the hot rod movement in the mid-20th century. That is why old fords were saved. I love what you're doing!!! I am on the model a club of American facebook page and there was a guy that bought a rusted out phaeton missing everything except the body and a rolling chasis and was bragging how he saved it from being turned into a hot rod. All I could think was that car is going to sit outside and rust away because it will never get restored.
What's even funnier is once it is restored (that is if they actually follow through with it) is it really restored with made in Taiwan vintique parts? Don't get me wrong the quality is pretty good on most of the reproduction parts but the car is only original once and when they are missing three quarters of the tiny (and expensive trim bits) and drive train parts you're either restoring the car because you're sentimental about that particular car or you don't realize what you are about to and the insane cost involved with a restoration or because you want a challenge that almost no one will understand. Don't get me wrong I don't have a problem with a hot rod or a restored car but when it comes to a Ford they are pretty common nothing is rare not even a 32 ford phaeton, they were a mass-produced item and almost all of them as they hit 20 and 30 years old were saved because the 32 Ford is probably the coolest car ever made. From a restoration standpoint I would be more impressed with somebody restoring a Chevrolet from 1932, the car is pretty much all wood in the framing of the body and if it survived it's a rare sight today because they all fell apart when they started to get some age on them back in the 1950s and 1960s. Or I would also be really impressed if somebody was saving one of the orphan cars like a bantam or Studebaker because there wasn't a whole lot of them made at what was made most of them did not survive because they were not considered cool cars other than maybe the 1932 Studebaker dictator coupe (there is a cool surf song if you ever want to look it up about that car).
I love what you are doing. I'm 63 and grew up looking at old man cars at car shows. Didn't enjoy them then and don't enjoy them now. If I were in charge of this hobby the first two things I would outlaw would be fuzzy dice and continental kits.....in that order. Harrumph. Bartender...drinks on the house!
I am 45 and when I was cutting my teeth with vintage cars when I was a young teenager I used to hate fuzzy dice and Continental kits (and billet street rods or monochrome rides) but as I get older I can appreciate all corners of the old car hobby and now that people my father's age and his fathers age are almost all gone it's kind of sad not seeing all those 1950s cruisers done up the way they thought it was cool in 1955. Today I am seeing cars from my youth that I never saw as cool like Toyota supras, Mazda RX-7s, Ford Fairmont Futuras and the god awful ugly 5.0 Mustang... Just think in a few more years you are going to see fart can exhaust make a comeback just like Continental kits did in the 1980s and 90s lol
OMG, you're taking out the splash pans......my heart, this is the big one, Elizabeth I'm coming to join you! (Older people will totally get the reference) If you did this outside with a block and tackle tied to a tree branch it would have been more period correct.
Understanding this project is very cool. Ardun timeline? That car does 100 standing still,ask Steve,he knows. Best thing you ever did was giving Steve time& space to warm up 2 the camera. Dude just embodies talent.
Matt you should take 35mm pics of your shop and projects like this and have them made into posters for the garage walls of our places. Everything just looks so period. 👊😎👍
I love the attitude in these videos, the satire and genuine comedy 😂😂 you guys are great down there at Iron Trap. Thanks for everything Matt, Mike, Steve and the gang!
Hey guys, If you put a 2"to 2-1/2" steel ring over your slings, just below the hoist hook, it will choke the sling against the hook, and you won't have to worry about the tranny dropping and ending up with the engine standing on the tailshaft. And you won't need to use your weight to "balance" the load.
Lol . Your car now ! Do as you see fit . It wasn't original , but restored to original . It's had a couple of lifetimes . This is the next iteration . I can't think of a better crew , so do what you do . As I see it , whatever energy was spent "making" that car , was very well spent . 92 years of being a car , hot rod , a car , & now a hot rod again . We Americans know how to build things , & We are damn good at it . Seems We should still continue to do what We do best . Make cool stuff , that runs forever , overbuilt , & over done . Iron Trap Garage , DOING IT ! Look at all of those period correct parts ! Perfect for someone to put an old 32 back to original factory perfection ! All good parts , even painted !
Wait a min, this is a wonderful opportunity to see a recreation of exactly how guys went about doing this back in the 40's. The haters should look at it as not so much ruining an original 32, but sacrificing one survivor to have a chance to document on film how the conversion was done. It's almost as historically significant as the original was itself.....and before people say it's documented in multiple publications and online....kids probably won't be reading those in the future but will be watching this if they want to learn how it was done.
!!!OMG!!! YOU RUINED THAT NOT ORIGINAL ROADSTER!!! I think you're just keeping with tradition because I'm sure it was said back in the day when the hobby started. I didn't think the green would be cool but it's grown on me. It's coming along nicely!!
I respect that this is MATTS CAR and he can do what he wants, fine. I think many viewers appreciate ITG is famous for taking crappy cars and resurrecting them to a useful life. This car was already useful, functional, and running. I think that's the line some of us feel has been crossed. But, it's still MATTS CAR and he can do what he likes with it.
Now you have to build a gow job with the Model B engine and trans. Model T rails , hop up the B mill, pre 25 open car T cowl narrowed to a single seater hand make the rear of the body. Gow job/lakester. I’m diggin’ this “build”.
Matt and Steve great video! You’re a hot rod garage not a shop putting car’s back to original condition! You guys give all of us great content! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
You're halfway there. It's a nice car and won't need any restoration once you complete the swap. You will never drive your truck anywhere in good weather. I'd be taking this car! It will be a very nice ride.
It's yours, do what you want! Love it and I think all forms of transportation are meant to be built to an owners specification. If he can't buy it that way he has to make it that way....
I’ll remember that next time I go into a scrap yard and see a guy with a torch cutting up an antique car and then compare it to restoration shop where they restore cars. It won’t be hard to figure out as to which one has the more difficult job.
As others have said, it's your car so you should do whatever you want. Anyway, all you've done so far, including the engine and transmission swap will be reversible should anyone want to do that in the future. I cheered when you got rid of those awful slime green wheels and the excessive over- restoration additions - all they did was tart up the car. You're taking the minimalist approach and creating something that reflects a style from the past. Keep it going!
Anyone who's complaining about the way this man is "hot rodding" his own cars, needs to start their own youtube channel and do it the way THEY like to to do it. People have complained about hot rodders since hot rodding began. It's a time honored tradition!
Since those "Bangers" are "throw away junk", can I be the first to say "I'll take this one" !!! ;o) I have worked on a few "A" bangers. Not yet worked on a "B". Quite a few nice little refinements between 31 and 32 bangers. You probably already have all the speed parts. You should do a banger one time to see how much fun they are !!
When the car was new someone checked the box of what they wanted , same applys today build or have built what you want . a historian told me that the Romans customized their Chariots with pinstrips and gold leaf
AH, come on, this is great! I like what you're doing with this one, working it from the other angle. Like you said, trying to take a stock '32 4-banger and dropping a flathead V8 like they did back in the day. May dad grew up in the SoCal hot rod scene back in the late forties and early fifties before starting a family. We had a couple of old jalopies when I was growing up so this is fun to watch. Anyhow, keep up the good work, I really like this build!
Nothing lik feeling the France twisting with a v8 engine. Mine was a 36 with SBC back in early 70s running the ford trans and rear. Split the rear wishbone to the frame. Drove it 20 miles to work for several years.
I like it the way it was when you first got it but i also like seeing the change over and like some one said its your car i am glad you showed how its done
Its not ITG's fault they're making the car better, its the fault of everyone that complains but still didn't "rescue" the car from the evils of a v8. (Which we all knew was going to happen eventually)
Matt, you're not going to build a B banger hot rod? Don't get me wrong I love a deuce with a flatty but A and B 4 cylinder engines are quite addictive and it brings a whole new element to traditional rodding. Especially with events like trog and hill climbs popping up all over the country
Any significant weight difference V8 vs 4 that could impact mounts, stance, suspension, rims/tires and braking? For sure some muffler mods? Speed difference?
the 32 is a beauty V8 flathead is the only way to go. yup, everyone loves cruising down the highway at 33 1/3 mph, that's why we put LS in S10 s and ....
A thought just came to me about that 4 cyl find a Generator big enough to run the shop and use that motor to power it and use an old car as the Generator house and it will blend with all your cars
Matt you should see the 32 Ford Chip Foose found he bought off a retired auto shop school teacher really nice original 32 find. He said he's just going to get it running good and leaving as is way to nice to butcher up.
Hi the color brought me back 40 years when I painted a model A truck! I could never figure out why they called the color "gun metal blue" it looks green. maybe the guy that named it was color blind😂
For me ya got 2 primaries correct, usable power and decent paint. I may have s stock dormant A sedan on the way, are the banger, trans and rear just scrap?
which is why I'm building my 38 chevy pickup how I want to even though it is completely original. I'm selling off any usable original parts I remove to help pay for the build which may get a few other pickups back on the road too
My only quibble is with the fenders. The car is lighter and faster without them. Less drag, for sure. The car is not better looking without them. I like '32 fenders.
I’ll take it if it’s getting scrapped😂! I do love that car along with half the universe and really like that V8. I was hoping to see your take on a hopped up banger but I guess it’s really not your style. Sell the engine to Seattle Speed Shop so he’ll have another good starting point for banger videos. As always thank you for the great video content.
I'm a subscriber who watches most of the Iron Trap videos, even though I'm not an early car guy nor exactly what you'd call a "Hot Rodder". I'm a Porsche guy, 356's and early 911's are my interest. I am also one who commented against hot rodding this particular car. I thought that someone had put a lot of time and effort into that vehicle so pass it on to so0meone who'd appreciate it as it was. I mean how many 32 Ford hot rods does one need? Matt you , (past VW history ) might be aware of Rod Emory, who is famous for hot rodding 356 Porsches. His grandfather was a 50's California hot rodder, then his dad was also so now Rod and his kids are 3 & 4th generation hot rodders. Rod whose "outlaw" 356's sell on the open market for prices approaching $1 million never starts with an original, or rare, base for his creations. He respects that aspect so he looks for cars in what he terms "goldilocks" zone not too rusted or bent but not cars that are suitable for preservation or restoration. I agree with that and that was the basis of my comment or as you guys say, complaint!
It's 1947 in the Iron Trap garage, two guys modify a 15-year-old car, without asking anyone's permission! The hobby is in good hands.
Haha yep!
@@IronTrapGarage , Who else besides H&H does flathead rebuilds these days and what'd that V8 run ya to build?
Matt. It’s your car. You do what the hell you like with it.

Shame on you 😂 We all wish we had one of those to ruin.

Your flathead is a true piece of industrial art and will do the roadster justice. This is an uber-cool build.
Enjoying watching you make a real "Hot Rod" takes me back a few years
Did the same back in 67/68 to a European model B. Went a stage further with Lincoln Zephyr brakes and Mercury reversed rims.
OMG, you're taking out the splash pans......my heart, this is the big one, Elizabeth I'm coming to join you! (Older people will totally get the reference) If you did this outside with a block and tackle tied to a tree branch it would have been more period correct.

It wasnt even a survivor, that car had already been a mild hot rod nd then restored later.
@@danielbuckner2167 And the "restoration" was not done well.
@@etheroar6312 It wasnt what I would called concourse quality but it wasnt bad either. No big deal.
I think it’s absolutely awesome. It’s gonna be great. Let the restoration guys do their thing and you do yours.
It’s freaking sweet. I’ve dreamed of doing something like this for years.
You went and worked to wreak havoc on the "Ruined Roadster"? I like it!
The way I see it is now, a set of really nice fenders just made their way into the hands of the purist restorer.
don't forget about the banger specific parts that I'm sure are impossible to find
It's about time. You made the roadster Better 👍

You guys are doing this car justice dont listen to the haters it looks awesome 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
Since those "Bangers" are "throw away junk", can I be the first to say "I'll take this one" !!! ;o)
I have worked on a few "A" bangers. Not yet worked on a "B". Quite a few nice little refinements between 31 and 32 bangers.
You probably already have all the speed parts. You should do a banger one time to see how much fun they are !!
When the car was new someone checked the box of what they wanted , same applys today build or have built what you want . a historian told me that the Romans customized their Chariots with pinstrips and gold leaf

Thank God you and Steve were there to keep that car from ruin with a 8 cylinder!

Keep doing what you guys do!!!!! Love the cars you and your crew put together!!!!!!
Your not modifying it your improving it
Nothing lik feeling the France twisting with a v8 engine.
Mine was a 36 with SBC back in early 70s running the ford trans and rear.
Split the rear wishbone to the frame. Drove it 20 miles to work for several years.
Love what you're doing that's gonna be a beautiful roadster when you're done
You're gonna make the internet mad! Biggest scandal since DD Speed Shop painted his Nomad flat black.
Lol! Or dismantled the sedan delivery to use it for the Nomadd
I like it the way it was when you first got it but i also like seeing the change over and like some one said its your car i am glad you showed how its done
That's a great looking car in that colour, very understated, it deserves that V8
I don’t have any white gloves but I do have a couple of white coats my dad wore when he work for A&P in the meat department.
Its not ITG's fault they're making the car better, its the fault of everyone that complains but still didn't "rescue" the car from the evils of a v8. (Which we all knew was going to happen eventually)
Hate???? Noooooo. See now you have a nice little 4 banger to do something crazy with.
Matt, you're not going to build a B banger hot rod? Don't get me wrong I love a deuce with a flatty but A and B 4 cylinder engines are quite addictive and it brings a whole new element to traditional rodding. Especially with events like trog and hill climbs popping up all over the country
No hating here. Go ahead on. I like hot rods. I really enjoyed the Chip Foose barn find video as that is a unicorn survivor.
Thanks Matt for doing this car right ❤ Going to be worth more money now than it was the other way 😅!
Seems like a authentic period correct upgrade, esp with the 35-36 engine. Its not like your fitting an LS with TH400 !
Man! You guys are true artists!!
Any significant weight difference V8 vs 4 that could impact mounts, stance, suspension, rims/tires and braking? For sure some muffler mods? Speed difference?
They came stock with a v8 and used the same of all of those items. Yes it will get a full dual exhaust
Keep making cool cars man, it's killer
Such a Cool Survivor ~ SCTA Approved ! Ready for El Mirage🏁
the 32 is a beauty V8 flathead is the only way to go. yup, everyone loves cruising down the highway at 33 1/3 mph, that's why we put LS in S10 s and ....

Keep up the great work!
Hey guys , its your car do what you want with it, enjoyed the video...Ralph

Hi the color brought me back 40 years when I painted a model A truck! I could never figure out why they called the color "gun metal blue" it looks green. maybe the guy that named it was color blind😂
Nice work again again well done stay save and the best from holland
when will the 33 with the ardun heads get finished?
For me ya got 2 primaries correct, usable power and decent paint. I may have s stock dormant A sedan on the way, are the banger, trans and rear just scrap?
The banger engine and trans is for sale. Send us an email if you’re interested. Irontrapgarage@gmail.com
Matt, This occurs even in hot rod community especially with the Mopar crowd.
which is why I'm building my 38 chevy pickup how I want to even though it is completely original.
I'm selling off any usable original parts I remove to help pay for the build which may get a few other pickups back on the road too
No hate here ! I pulled the 6 cyl out my 57 chevy and put a 327 in it years ago. And it still runs years latter!
Awesome. Thanks for the video.
My only quibble is with the fenders. The car is lighter and faster without them. Less drag, for sure.
The car is not better looking without them. I like '32 fenders.
Love it! 👏👏👏 Good job boys!
I’ll take it if it’s getting scrapped😂! I do love that car along with half the universe and really like that V8. I was hoping to see your take on a hopped up banger but I guess it’s really not your style. Sell the engine to Seattle Speed Shop so he’ll have another good starting point for banger videos. As always thank you for the great video content.
I'm a subscriber who watches most of the Iron Trap videos, even though I'm not an early car guy nor exactly what you'd call a "Hot Rodder". I'm a Porsche guy, 356's and early 911's are my interest. I am also one who commented against hot rodding this particular car. I thought that someone had put a lot of time and effort into that vehicle so pass it on to so0meone who'd appreciate it as it was. I mean how many 32 Ford hot rods does one need? Matt you , (past VW history ) might be aware of Rod Emory, who is famous for hot rodding 356 Porsches. His grandfather was a 50's California hot rodder, then his dad was also so now Rod and his kids are 3 & 4th generation hot rodders. Rod whose "outlaw" 356's sell on the open market for prices approaching $1 million never starts with an original, or rare, base for his creations. He respects that aspect so he looks for cars in what he terms "goldilocks" zone not too rusted or bent but not cars that are suitable for preservation or restoration. I agree with that and that was the basis of my comment or as you guys say, complaint!
Another great video!
Very nice car thanks, for sharing!
Definitely a time saver I like it
Seattle Speed Shop will buy the four banger. Trade for 1932 Ford frame.
Can't wait to see it with a V8!!
Great video. Piss them off. Take off the windshield. Put half circle windshields.
such sacrilege......😉
yinz need to do something with that '34 sitting there lonely.
VERY NICE, LOVE YOUR WORK.
I would like to see "When you're done" what kind of hp it has to the pavement. Can a car that old be hooked up to a dyno? Just wondering 🤔
Great work. Keep it up.
