If you're going to build a street rod, going subtle probably isn't
the first thing on your mind. The Bright Dupont paint in millennium
lemon ice that is greatly contrasted with a gloss black roof as
well as a killer looking set of flames on each side. And if the
flames are not you style have no worry, they are easily removed
since they are achieved by a vinyl wrap. This 1933 Ford 3-window
coupe is all about getting attention, but it's also the rare rod
that's got the horsepower and engineering behind it to be insanely
fast and completely ready to cruise. The fiberglass body built by
Show-Me Rods & Customs with a 3" chop, suicide doors, shaved
handles, hidden hinges, and smooth as glass running boards. All of
that custom work sits on a custom Pete & Jake's frame that is fully
boxed & powdercoated. A Hercules 3-piece steel hood complete with
louvers is what hides the Chevrolet 350 cubic inch V8 with Vortec
cylinder heads. Complete with all of the polished billet pieces to
help this 33' stand out in a crowd! Transferring the power to the
ground while keeping the rpm's low for cruising is a 700-R4
automatic transmission complete with an AFCO aluminum transmission
cooler. Keep everything under the hood cool on even the hottest of
days is the Custom aluminum radiator that is fed air through the
Show-Me custom grille. Once you open up the suicide doors and you
are treated a completely custom interior that is built around a set
of Glide Engineering seats with a custom center console. Sculpted
panels including floor, headliner, doors & trunk keep the custom
theme rolling but also have a sense that you are sitting in a
luxury machine. Looking back at the driver is a fiberglass dash
that houses a set of VDO gauges as well as a Pioneer stereo system.
If the power windows are not enough to keep the occupants cool then
the Vintage air conditioning can help out in that department.
Giving this coupe it's great ride & handling is a the TCI
independent front show unit with Aldan coil over shocks, Pete &
Jake's four bar rear with Panard bar & Aldan coil over shocks also.
Steering tasks little to no effort with the rack & pinion steering
setup. Out back is a Ford 9" housing a set of 3:50 gears. Helping
grip the road is a set of radial tires that wrap a set of Polished
aluminum American Racing wheels. You can view this 1933 Ford 3
