Wypple's Home Garage

In the last few days I wanted to start with this kind of "documentary series" of my future builds, after saying that I continue presenting myself, my name is Lucas Fiorotto (most known by Wypple), i'm 20 years old and I live in Argentina, since I finished high school I started studying as a audio technician, in the process I got a job at a gas station (only helping in easy things), in that way I earned the necessary money to start a project, of course I am a car enthusiast since I was a child, with the job that I mentioned and a big help of my parents now I've got a total of $20,000, I have to mention that I've been saving money for 6 years, otherwise I could never have had that kind of money, the argentinian money value is too low at the moment, that means 20k of greens is too much here.

Now let's introduce my new (and first) ride, i'm gonna work on a Ford 32', I bought it by $2703 (121,037 Argentinian Pesos), in this country is very rare and expensive if it's in good conditions, anyway I had too much luck by finding one with all of the external parts and a engine with the primordial components, the car was owned by an old man who just wanted to sell it, that's why he sold it to me too cheap (in this country that amount is cheap for the quality of the car, maybe you will don't believe me but is the crude reality that we are living).

As you can see, it have rust what is obviously because it was sitting on the side of a house which was receiving a lot of rain water and humidity, but in a general view is a good base for starting a build, I already have some ideas for it and some contacts which will help a lot! motivation is very important too, If the motivation did not exist why would I be doing this?

The most impressive thing for my was seeing that the wheels are in really good conditions! they are from a touring car, also, very popular in modified classic cars, speaking about wheels thingy, the suspension seems too rough, we and my friends discovered it by moving it to the tow truck, it was hard dude!

The engine is a Ford 221 N/A (it comes with the Ford Falcon in South America) which not runs because it's missing the air intake and the carburetor, probably the head gasket is blown but it needs a general rebuild.

At the time I will keep it in my house garage, my parents no have problem with that so it's magnific.

I hope and you have liked this humble presentation, besides following this project of course! Many thanks and see you in the next update.
