Default Re: New 1932 5 window bodies

I am for it but the metal will never be "Henry" metal. Henry Ford had th best quality of metal available when he was building his cars. Strip one to bare metal, put it outside a full Michigan winter and see what it looks like in the spring. Me and my buddy did it with a 40 and a 37 and they had a slight case of surface rust but nothing much. Some metal was still shiney. Take one of these new stamped cars, company does not matter, and see what it looks like in 50 years. The new cars atleast will provide some of the originals to sleep a little longer.
