Guess you can check that one off on the things to do list! Glad you kept it all original by using those spare parts you had, turned out really good! Slowly coming together!
I never liked the idea of draining water into the trunk floor and was always going to fabricate a stainless steel drip pan that had outlets to the outside for drainage. Wound up selling the car before I got to building the drip pan, but would love to see it done. Build is going real good !
Patches for the gutters look good, Phillip.... good thing you had the donor set... As for the curved trunk panel, I believe it was shaped that way to make getting luggage and bulky items, in and out of the trunk... It does use up a lot of space though,, and I too w
If you're not aware of them, check out Cold Stream Hotrods. They're building a pair of 5-window Model A's. Y'all are doing similar things. Really enjoy watching the progress.
Thanks for sharing this build, Phillip! Nice repair on the rain gutters, for sure! I've been wondering where the run-off goes from the drip rails when it rains! 'Looking forward to seeing how you modify that trunk panel...I'm exactly at the same stage on my wife's '29! Enjoy! Be safe! Bro Harry
There was originally no floor pan under that curved inner panel, so the water runoff just ran in between the inner panel and the outer body panel, into that open space, and the ran out from under the car. I think I am going to extend the floor pan all the way back, then lengthen the rain gutters to extend down all the way down through the floor. I've seen that done in some photos online, and it looks to a good way to do it.
As for the curved panel, I would use that piece by bending it more, at the top and adding another bend at the bottom for the excess. Then cut, blend into trunk floor.
Great idea! Another way is to make a cut in the area where I showed in the video, and take the excess material out there. Then bolt those two sections back together. Since it's common to place taillights in the rear panel, that bolt in section would give access to the tail lights. I saw full moon hot rods do that here on RUclips, and it looked like it worked well for him. I'm not sure where I placing the tail lights yet, I'm just brainstorming. Your way works too!
Hello.. Just subscribed to your channel. Really enjoy your methodical approach to your work! You rate right up there with Iron Trap Garage. Keep up the great videos!
Looks good, nice work with the gutters! I think i would fabricate an another inner tailpanel and forget that curvy piece. Just a straight piece down. I guess it might need some curves to follow the shape of the outer tail panel, but that can be done with shrinker stretcher. And i would add some speedholes on the new inner panel too. They look great and those will help if routing wiring etc behind the panel. And good to see you healthy again!
I really like your channel. I’m going to be working in a model A build next and am really following how yours goes together. That panel you think is un-necessarily long, could that possibly be because it’s made for the original trunk floor dimensions and yours is different from “stock” because of the frame modification? I don’t know nearly enough about how these are put together but I’m trying to learn.
Hey, thanks for watching the channel! Honestly, I'm learning as I go, so hopefully you can get some use of my experiences with my build. As far as the inner panel, it isn't actually very far off from it's original location. There was a raised floor in the coupes where the curved panel attached, so raising my subrails put them pretty close to where that raised floor would have originally been. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Good observation, but it's definitely for a trunk. The rumble seat panel is smaller and actually takes up less space, believe it or not. I have both panels, for with and without the rumble seat, so I'll try to show the difference between the two in my next video. Thanks for the comment!

Drinking my coffee on a Sunday morning watching your latest video always makes my day ! Great job on the gutters!
Awesome man... hope you enjoyed that coffee!
Hmm nice work and thank you for video (very informative)!
Thank you! Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Your climbing up that hill brother...good job.
Baby steps LOL

Yes sir! Another piece of the puzzle in place!
Good call on the rumble seat (delete)
I think so. I just see myself using the trunk more than the rumble seat. More practical I'd say.
The coupe is looking great I the curved panel had to do with the rumble seat but it is a good place for a gad tank
Thanks!

I am going to be doing just that. I will be extending the rain gutters down straight through the floor. I think that's a good way to do it!

I’d cut it back closer for more space.
You might be right on that. I'm definitely cutting it down some.

@@phillipshotrodgarage That makes sense. 'Waiting to see how you pull this off!
We will see what happens LOL!
Coldstreamrodshop just made new rain gutter by hammer forming for his model A
I'll have to check it out!. I watch that channel, but haven't seen that video yet.

Would you trade the 32 Chevy for a original Philips 66 Wayne gas pump with a globe that is in the shape of the shield????
I don't know, I'm kind of set on keeping the car a while longer. I'd like to see the pump though. Send me a email... phillipshotrodgarage@gmail.com
@@phillipshotrodgarage sent ya the email.
It could be designed for a rumble seat, the way it’s curved, just saying
