Vehicle Description
There's a reason songs were written about the Ford Deuce coupe, and
this awesome streetrod is further evidence that nothing is cooler
than a slick-built 1932 Ford 3-window Coupe. Finished a scant 149
miles ago, it's equipped with a powerful 350 V8 motor, a sizzling
bright red paint job, and a supremely comfortable A/C interior.
This 'Lil Deuce Coupe can definitely walk the walk.
Built very recently with nothing more than break-in miles on the
odometer, this awesome 3-window coupe was built with a
top-of-the-line fiberglass body, which means no actual 1932 Fords
were harmed in the construction. The end result is about ten times
nicer and much more durable than any original you're likely to
find, with hotrod curb appeal through the roof. With a slight rake,
big-n-little tire combination, exposed engine bay, and a
full-fender/running board body, it's a modern take on a traditional
hi-boy hardtop, and we definitely love the look of this
professionally built icon. The Torch Red paint is absolutely
dialed-in, applied by experts and only showing very minor
imperfections throughout, this is firmly a top-end driver. We're
incredibly happy that the builders showed restrained and added no
graphics, decals, or even a pinstripe anywhere on the body, meaning
it looks uniform and sleek, and will never look dated. Execution
was first-class throughout, with laser-straight bodywork, excellent
panel gaps, and an attention to detail that makes great rods like
this stand out amongst the crowd. Smoked glass all around adds to
the high-tech look, as do the period-perfect taillights, chrome
spreader bars, the upright waterfall grille, and details like the
King Bee-style headlights and one-piece windshield are traditional
components that look just right on this hotrod '32.
Inside, you'll be stunned by the gorgeous tan upholstery accented
with custom patterns and beautifully installed throughout the
cabin. Wonderfully complementing the external paint scheme, the
bench seat was swapped-in and wrapped in luxurious and durable
cloth hides, showing uniform and consistent two-tone coloring on
all the soft-parts. That's not to say that the cabin is subdued or
boring either, with flashes of dynamic styling found in the custom
door panels, the bright red tilt column, and beautifully arranged
dash. There's a surprising amount of room in there, even with the
chopped top design, and with several modern conveniences you
shouldn't be afraid to run this one cross-country. The
leather-wrapped billet steering wheel feels great in the hands of
any driver, and a tall Lokar shifter with a billet knob juts out
from the transmission hump. A custom dash was finished to match and
highlighted with stainless and billet accents, and it houses a full
complement of Dolphin gauges that keep a close eye on the engine.
A/C vents and controls were then cleverly integrated underneath,
while the custom headliner incorporates a Kenwood AM/FM/CD/AUX head
unit, and it manages the upgraded speakers inside the doors and
behind the seats with help of a rear-mounted amplifier that's been
stashed away out of sight. Out back, the trunk was finished with
matching materials and includes custom panels all-around, and
there's plenty of room for all your car-show goodies.
Wherever you're going, however, it won't take long to get there
thanks to the potent 350 cubic inch V8 motor under the hood. Topped
by an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor and a polished aluminum intake,
it has horsepower written all over it with strong throttle response
up and down the speedometer. The block and its components were
covered in chrome and polished aluminum, with custom flame-etched
valve covers and a trick air cleaner leading the way, and all that
bright stuff really pops out from the Torch Red engine bay. A giant
radiator with an electric fan keeps it cool, all the plumbing and
wiring has been neatly routed and organized, and the firewall was
smoothed and painted to match the exterior. A smooth-shifting TH350
3-speed automatic transmission handles the power from the small
block with ease, and there's a wonderfully throaty soundtrack from
the long-tube headers that feed into a Flowmaster dual exhaust
system. The undercarriage looks just about as nice as the top, with
clean black paint and upgraded suspension components throughout,
including a Mustang II style front end with rack-and-pinion
steering, coilovers in the rear, and a heavy-duty rear end with
capable gearing inside for both off-the-line and highway driving.
Power front disc brakes mean this lightweight '32 stops on a dime,
and the rolling stock sits atop a classic Cragar big-and-little
set-up that finishes off the traditional hi-boy look perfectly.
Fully sorted and looking good, this '32 hotrod does everything
right and is ready to hit the road today. Just be ready for the
crowds that will surely follow. Call today!
