Vehicle Description
This one looks like a well-built 1932 Ford Cabriolet inside and out
- it even has a rumble seat! But as you look at the V8 in the
engine bay and the chassis underneath, it soon becomes clear that
this mild classic is really a wild child.
The body on this car looks quite authentic. It's a Westcott
Fiberglass body with Polyform fenders. It means this one has all
the great elements you love in a classic Model A, including the
upright grille, running boards, and chrome luggage rack. But it's
all actually part of a lightweight package. That's something to
keep in mind as you dig deeper into this unique classic. Brightwork
is in all the right places like the bumpers, headlight pods, and
surrounding the windshield. These elements pop quite nicely against
the slick black paint. Even the details are great, like how the
green pinstripe on the body matches the Ford V8 logo in the wire
wheels.
This one really does nail the look of a Model A Deluxe right down
to the folding roof. And when you peek inside, you'll see an
authentic presentation finished in a great looking and durable
brown vinyl. The bench seat and door panels have the appearance of
a nicely restored 1930s machine. This even matches the rumble seat
out back. The exterior black continues on the dashboard, and all
the gauges are in a bright panel - just as it should be in a Model
A. But then you start to notice some nice upgrades, like the small
diameter banjo-style wheel and that the gauges are a modern VDO
readouts. It tells your senses there's something special under the
hood even before you twist the key.
One look at the engine bay, and you realize that all of this jaunty
classic appearance is a bit of a ruse. After all, that's a mean
looking muscle car V8 under the hood. And the deception is a bit
deeper than you thought. Because despite the Cobra air topper and
valve covers, you're actually looking at a 350 cubic-inch Chevy V8!
That means you get the look of great Ford history and the ease of
SBC upgrade availability. In fact, this one is already a balance
and blueprinted motor that has go-fast goodies like a Comp Cams
260-degree mild camshaft, Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor,
Edelbrock intake, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan. This
total power package gives a nice rumble to the dual exhaust that
the original '32 never came close to having. It's backed up by a
stout TH350 three-speed automatic transmission that feeds the Ford
9-inch rear end. All of this is built on top of a strong Total
Performance chassis. And so, just like a hot rod, you have a
chromed four-link front end front suspension and a beefy
triangulated four-bar rear end with coilovers. You even have the
upgraded control of Mustang steering and front disc brakes.
With less than 7,500 miles on it since completion, this is the
great-looking, rumble-seat '32 Ford that your family wants for
parades... and it's also the performance-built lightweight hot rod
of your dreams. But something this unique never stays available for
long. So don't miss out, call today!
