- In this video I will attempt to show every detail.....both good and bad......of my 1934 Ford coupe. I've owned it for a couple years and made many improvements. The best feature is the original Henry Ford steel body (fenders are fiberglass). It's a totally reliable cruiser, intended for daily driving rather than being trailered to car shows. Check it out and see what you think, but be sure to watch the whole video before commenting or asking questions. Thanks for viewing.
Be sure to see the added info at the end of the video, plus the following: The hood sides were painted separately from the car and are a very slightly different shade of black.....only visible under certain lighting conditions. They are in great shape, but the metal has a few small waves (see video).
Beautiful, well accented black. Very subtle touches.
The 34 has always been in my top 5 all time favorites. Looks like a great one to thoroughly drive and enjoy.
Thanks, AZ.
Thank you. A delightful tour! I always enjoy a visit with my favorite uncle.
Glad you enjoyed it, Rich :)
A great looking and very clean '34 coupe. It's a statement of 'looking good and running great thanks'.
Made a 70 year old Aussie very happy - thank you. Love your amp work too!
Thanks so much, Chris. Glad to hear it :)
Sweet ride Doug. Instantly reminded me of ZZ Top. Put a lightning bolt on it lol. That's an 8-inch rear, not a 9 inch. The 9-inch housings have a hump for the ring gear.
Thanks for the info, Bert :)
Always fun hanging out with you Unc…thank you for showing off this absolutely stunning 34 Ford !!!
Thanks, Richard. Glad you enjoyed it
The trunk looks like a puppet show,,, haha,,, that was good Doug. Nice ride man.
Thanks, Carl. 👍
You’ll have this sold in no time. It’s a good honest turnkey local show car and cruiser with no serious issues. Harder to find these days.
Thanks so much, Fitz :)
Interesting car Doug, thanks for the tour.
Glad you enjoyed it, MR.
Got the Look is a understatement ! GORGEOUS. Thanks.
Thanks so much, DH. Glad you like it!
I wished I had an Uncle like you growing up. That’s one bad mamma jamma. I’ve gravitated to the air cool scene. VW’s but I’m in search of a Rampside pickup or Greenbrier.
Thanks, Curtis. Good luck with your search.
I enjoyed every moment of the '34 tour UD - should be plenty of possible buyers when that day comes.
Thanks, Skip. I hope you're right :)
Thanks , I enjoyed the ride .
Glad you enjoyed it, Mr. TJ.
Absolutely beautiful.. Nice to see the blue dots.
Thank you very much, Richard.
Beautiful Hot Rod!!
Thanks, Stephen :)
Always nice to hear your voice UD. Nice car.
Thanks, RF :)
Very nice Uncle Doug thanks for giving us the tour & stay cool 😎
Thanks for joining us, James. That's hard to do at 108 :)
Nice as always.... hope to see a new video soon....
Thanks, Ricard.
Nice walk around and review of your car. I'd say it's a great car despite a few flaws which I could certainly live with especially with the smile on my face going down the road.
Thanks so much, Gary. I agree that perfection is both impossible to achieve and a real burden. I tend to appreciate great looking cars that are imperfect enough to actually drive and enjoy.
I like the new ford especially metal bodies great interior and A/c thanks for sharing
Thanks for joining us, Wayne :)
Thanks for sharing this beauty Uncle Doug.
Thanks for joining us, JT :)
@@uncledougshotrodgarage6049 Thanks UD, been here a while though. I love this channel just as much as your main one.
@@jaytee8188 Thanks, JT. Glad to hear it :)
Man things are looking really green around there!
...nice ride! Thanks for sharing a look√
Thanks for joining us, C :)
Very cool!!👍👍
Wow what a beauty, my dream car nice ride
Thanks so much, Mike :)
Dang!!!!!!!!!! Slap me naked and raise my rent... make me write bad checks!!!! Congrats!! Stunning
Wow.....high praise indeed, Rick ;) Thanks !!!
i like it! hope it sells quickly!
Thanks, George. I'm having second thoughts about selling the car.
Well done....
Thanks, RC :)
'39 Ford taillights. Another nice ride Doug!
Thanks for the helpful info, Bill.
Nice car, Doug. I enjoyed the tour.
Thanks, Bill :)
The rear end is a ford nine inch, very nice car, the interior certainly makes a statement, no tachometer, very interesting.
Thanks for confirming my suspicions, RM. With an automatic, tach's seem rather superfluous.
Lovely looking car Doug 👍
Thanks, Chris :)
Nice ride . . . . . Rog
Thanks 👍
Boy o boy it sure is hard to tell the glass bodies from steel when the drip rails are messaged outta existence. She is a looker and smooth all over UD.
Thanks so much, Butch. The drip rails were indeed ground down.
Hey Uncle Doug! Saw you at Car parts a while back, the 30 is looking good. I love the 34 too.
Thanks, Joe. Let's hope this cold, windy weather goes away so we can get back to our weekly car gatherings.
@@uncledougshotrodgarage6049 been meaning to talk to you. Know anyone local with model A parts?
@@59eurobug Not original parts, just some hot rod parts.
Nice looking car. It's very tempting . The only real flaw I see is if the battery dies, your locked out.
Thanks, Andrew. Fortunately, the battery is located just under the front, right fender, easily accessible from outside the car. Which brings up another question......What if somebody STOLE the battery :O
@@uncledougshotrodgarage6049 I later guessed you'd have a trick get in. :))
@@bullthrush Yep :)
Nice car. I guess someone has already nailed the tail lights. They, at least look like, 39 Ford.
Thanks, DB. Yes, they are :)
Very groovy "34"... hope you get to enjoy it before it sells.
Thanks so much, Charles :)
It could use a nice paint job. It's been chopped too much to bring it back to original, but at least some of the body is still there. Not too many escape the wrath of the sawzall blade.
Thanks for your comments, Jason.
That's a really nice '34 UD. What transmission do you have under there Doug? You're taking a risk showing your number plate.
TH-350. I've never understood why the number plate exposure would matter. I drive around with it showing all the time......the number plate, I mean ;)
Beautiful car. I admire the engineering it too to shoehorn a V8 under the hood with AC\PS and also love the look of a nicely chopped top. I'd probably never be able to fold up enough to enjoy one but I still like them.
Any guess at to the gear ratio? Sounded like 3.42 -3.73'ish from the way it was shifting. If so then that 350 will be plenty zippy. Thank you and stay well hydrated. This Texas heat is horrendous.
Thanks so much, Randy. There is a surprising amount of headroom.....I can wear a hat and not touch the headliner. The gears are more highway than drag race.....probably around 3.23:1 or so. It rolls along at 75 effortlessly. The heat has been ungodly......108 for 3 days in a row !!
@@uncledougshotrodgarage6049 Glad it's a good fit for you. Those early sedans have a style that never gets old. You have a beauty.
@@Slugg-O Thanks again, Randy :)
If you want that bug gone color sand it out with a 1500 then 2000 then buff it out with compound.and let it shine.
Is it for sale?
Do you still own this car?
Tell me it’s for sale would like to know how much.
I'm asking $42,500, Terry.
You're in El paso right?
Yes
@@uncledougshotrodgarage6049 well I'm from anthony and was just wondering if you had any parts for sale
@@enriquequintana255 I have a new tubular 4" drop straight front axle and chrome leaf spring for a Model A or B.
Do you have any headers for a small block chevy
@@enriquequintana255 Not any more. I sold the ones I had.
I wonder how much faster it would be if it was all fiber
Never show your plates! Now I can go and report the car stolen 😂 imagine that police chase!
Finally, face reveal!
Speed isn't the issue with a car like this, P. Go right ahead.....I'd enjoy the excitement.
@@uncledougshotrodgarage6049 I would, but I don't want to get into trouble myself 🤣
I don't doubt the speed! Just a thought exercise!
OK sorry, I should've waited till the end!
I hope you enjoyed it, Geoff.
Do you want to sell your 34 ?
