Are you just hoarding parts or are you going to start working on that 34 DMW. I'm getting anxious to see your progress here. I'm starting on my 34 (sedan) in approx. four months when I retire.

Yes it's true...I'm hoarding! As soon as I sell one more car and have room to bring it home I will swap out the 21 stude for the 59A engine, checkall the bearins, fluids, wiring, brakes and see if it will go. Might have to replace the radiator also it looks like it had some major damage and repair to the core.

looks like a good stash of old school-cool....

so i guess the stude is currently "on hold"

full speed ahead '34[

I'm still doing a few things here and there on it just not any real photo worthy stuff.

Brought the 34 home today.

Here it is loaded on my trailer getting ready to leave it's old home.

Here it is at it's new home. And if things work out it's old home may be its home again!!!

We are working on it. The place is awesome. Warehouse and 4 car garage with 2 rooms, 2 car garage on the house, covered swimming pool, and guest house on 20 fenced acres.

This is the house. Main floor and full basement rec room.

Warehouse with 6 parking bay on the side.

Big lift outside.

This the 4 car shop!

Would you be willing to adopt an old man?

The more I see the '34 the more I love it! You are indeed the most fortunate dmw56 I know.[dr

....or you could adopt me. I promise I won't "borrow" any of your 34 parts for my sedan project [ddd. That grille is so much nicer than mine

Are you spying on me? I'm stoked! Never ever thought I'd own one!

Chipper's coming over tomorrow to trade me a 29 A roadster body for a 38 Chevy cab! [cl

 

[dmw56]

I got it running today! Sort of! It will start after I change the leaking fuel pump on the 21 stud engine but it wont stay running. I'm going to swap the carb from the '48 59AB engine and see if will keep running. Next, bleed the bakes and check front wheel bearings, trans and rear fluid and see if will drive!

Here is some pictures of it all cleaned up.

This is the worst part the back of the cab and trunk lid. But I'm going to leave it as is and just drive it.

Here's the engine back from the machine shop with the Offy heads and intake manifold.

Your killing me....

 

[Gastrick]

Awesome DMW. I hope you chronicle the engine swap. I think I'll be going with a 59AB on mine.
