Vehicle Description
1932 Ford 5-Window
They've been building cars for 71 years since Henry Ford introduced
the body style that followed the Model T's 19-year run and the
Model A's 4-year stretch. It was in production for barely a year,
and yet to this day, no other car has been as popular among hot
rodders as it has. It is the car that appears more than any other
in hot rod enthusiast magazines. It is the car that has been
treated to literally every conceivable form of performance and
appearance modification. It is the car that appeared on the very
first cover of ROD & CUSTOM. It is the car that has appeared at
least once in every issue of Hot Rod Network going back as far as
anyone can remember. It is the car practically everybody
immediately thinks of when they hear the term "hot rod." We're
talking about the '32 Ford, known to you and me simply as the
Deuce.
For consignment, the iconic hot rod Deuce in 5 window form. This
one is a Downs fiberglass body, with a steel louvered hood, steel
grille shell, and a Speedway frame. With the fiberglass kit, one
can go hog wild on the customization and this one is no exception.
oink!
Exterior
With a chopped top and well minded gaps for the mixture of steel
and fiberglass it's all showing up for the ball in tuxedo black. A
chromed front glass frame adds some highlighting to the front of
the car, as do side view mirrors, headlight bezels and the open
front suspension. An open cowl does the trick for this car to show
off that beautiful mill. On the back a nicely curved downward rear
deck has teardrop taillights with a gas tank below protected by a
chromed bar running across the back roll pan. Fenders have been
shaved for weight and now we can see 15-inch torque thrust 5 spokes
that have satin gray coating on them and a shiny chromed crossed
flag central hub and a chromed dish trim ring. Like new 165/80R15's
are in front and own back for the track are 235/70R15's. Which way
to the salt flats?
Interior
Custom to say the least with conveniences added. Noted upfront is a
wooden oak framed dash front with a honeycomb pattern machined
insert. In the center is a horizontal ribbed cast oval that houses
all the gauges which are black faced VDO gauges with shiny bezels.
Fronting this work of art is a tilt column topped with a 59 Chevy
steering wheel in tan. A sun tachometer hangs off the left side of
the column. There are power toggles for the tinted glass in the
doors, and an AM/FM/CD/Phone jack radio and Vintage Air has been
added. The chairs and door panels use tuck and roll pleated saddle
colored vinyl and are looking fine and dandy. Tan carpeting floods
the floors, and in the middle Lokar shifter reaches for the sky.
Overall, a nice presentation right down to the stainless steel cup
holder.
Drivetrain
Peering under the louvered hood and into the absent cowl area is a
totally chromed and detailed 350ci V8 circa 1969-1979. It has
Edelbrock aluminum heads, a modified cam and roller rockers. On top
are dual Edelbrock 4 barrels and just behind this mill is a 700R4
transmission 4-speed automatic. On the back is a Ford Equilock
8-inch rear with 3.55 gears inside. Lakes style headers all chromed
are on, and big side pipes are diverted to the undercarriage for a
rear exit.
Undercarriage
Speedway provides the frame and attached to it are Pete and Jakes 4
bar front with Posies super slider spring and in back are Pete and
Jakes 4 bar with coilover suspension. Loaded with quality parts,
notable Wilwood front power disc brakes and power drum brakes for
the rear. A glass pack style exhaust steals the exhale from the
Lakes headers and throws it to the rear of the car.
Drive-Ability
Starts right up and begins growling immediately. Move that long
Lokar to D and let the horses begin to release as you put your
riding boots into it. It handles nicely, is a great cruiser, and
all the conveniences added work flawlessly. Seats are "ultra"
comfortable, and this car can make some nice noise.
Meticulous build attention, some of the finest parts, great paint,
many conveniences and we have one of the nicest turnkey deuce
coupes that has graced our halls in a while. Hard to find many
faults on this build, and hard to resist making a solid buy that
will yield years of enjoyment. This car comes with plenty of
awards, and the front cycle fenders and bobbed rear fenders will
come with the car.
