Vehicle Description
This 1932 Ford Highboy is a low mileage V8 build that has all the
right classic looks, but also carries plenty of subtle modern
upgrades (including an overdrive transmission). The result is a
cool vintage machine that's an overall thoughtful hot rod.
White is always a color of distinction, and on a build with less
than 5,300 miles on it, it retains that crisp look. The low-cut
windshield, deleted fenders, and minimalist attitude delivers the
vintage hot rod look. There are even vintage leather straps holding
down the hood. But as you get closer, you can see they invested in
the details to make this distinct. The body is mildly channeled
into the frame to give it a sleek look without taking away from the
classic highboy appearance. The black canvas roof looks distinctive
against the white, and it coordinates nicely with the black grille.
There's also power-controlled hatch to conceal the manual
convertible top, so that you have a very flush-fit look whenever
this one is open to the world. But our favorite detail is the
pinstriping. The green and orange are brightly distinct as this
hand-painted design weaves it way across the white fiberglass body.
Plus, the orange coordinates with the solid steel wheels. So you
see what we mean about a thoughtful build!
If you like the look of the black roof against the white paint,
then you'll love the interior. It's a premium and supple
presentation, that includes a nicely contoured leather bench. Plus,
you'll love the detail work, like the exterior-matching pinstriping
across the dash and the Ford V8 logo on the banjo-style sports
steering wheel. While this is a performance machine, it also has
added comfort you don't get from many hot rods. It includes a tilt
steering column, plush carpeting, and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB
input to plug in your iPod or charge your phone.
The engine bay has the ideal vintage look with the butterfly hood,
bright air topper, ribbed valve covers, and an overall tidy
appearance of a proper investment. But while it earns the look of a
display piece, what you'll really love is the substance behind the
style. It's a 283 cubic-inch V8 that has been upgraded with an
Edelbrock four-barrel, hi-rise intake, and ceramic-coated headers
that feed a sweet-sounding glasspack dual exhaust. It even has the
right supporting components, like an HEI distributor and an
aluminum radiator w/electric fan. As you look at the undercarriage
photos, you see more evidence of how fresh this build is. More than
just look great, this one was built to drive. That's why you have
nice features like power brakes w/discs up front and a 700R4
four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly
overdrive.
This is a great-looking and smooth-running hot rod that has all the
right custom upgrades and details. So if you love a thoughtful
build that's already ready to go, call today!
