Vehicle Description
1933 Ford 5 Window Coupe
Early Fords have always been popular ever since new but the king
has to be the 1932-1934 models. These cars are iconic and have been
the basis for some of the coolest street rods on the road. There is
an entire hobby that has blossomed out of modifying these cars.
While all these Model B years are kind of grouped together there
were drastic changes applied between each of them. The '32 no doubt
has a cool look but there is something about the sloped grill and
wide swooping fenders of the '33/'34 that really stand out. They
have such a classy look and when modified correctly can be the
stand out car at any show they attend. We get it, there are a lot
of Street Rods out there to choose from. However, if you are
currently in the market for one you really need to take a close
look at this 1933 Ford 5 Window. This car is packed with little
details that really take it to the next level. The owner/builder of
the car is a metal fabricator and the amount of hand created 1 off
features this thing has are really astounding. Starting with the
body the car is all original 1933 Ford steel except for the
fenders, running boards, and tail pan which are aftermarket steel.
It has a very subtle chop giving it a great looking side profile
and despite the chop the front windshield was modified to still
open/close which is a really nice touch you don't see with all chop
jobs. The windshield is not tinted but the rest of the glass is.
The paint is absolutely beautiful on the car and consists of a 2000
Corvette Millennium Yellow with very cleanly laid out Candy
Burgundy flames. The pearl on the candy paint really pops in the
sun and the flames are framed with Silver pinstriping. It has been
kept in excellent condition due to the bra and bugscreen which come
with the car so you can drive it without those typical rock chip
worries. The grill is an original 1933 Ford grill that has been
rechromed. It still has its front/rear bumpers but they have been
pulled closer to the body. Features like that and the ornamental
chrome horns are a nice nod to the stock original car. It is that
combination of traditional features with subtle customizations
which really make this car special. It has aftermarket original
style Ford headlights and in back the original taillights have been
shortened. It also has an inset 3rd brake light under the rear
window for added safety and all the tail lights are LED. Other nice
exterior modifications include the filled cowl. The wheels on the
car have a beautiful shine and are made by Edelbrock. They are 15x7
inch in front and 17x8 inch in rear with P206/60R17 and 255/60R17
Dunlop tires.
Open the beautifully painted and louvered 4 piece hood to reveal
the 289 V8 motor. Yes, you read that right, this Ford is Ford
powered. You see so many of these style of cars with a crate Chevy
motor in them that seeing a Ford motor adds an extra cool factor.
Take note of the custom recessed firewall where the flames have
also been applied. That level of detail is something you don't see
everyday. A custom section was also built to almost french and hide
the chrome master cylinder allowing it to somewhat flow with the
body. It is almost hard to describe but it without a doubt looks
awesome and adds a lot to this incredibly clean engine compartment.
The motor is out of a 1967 Ford and has been completely rebuilt. It
features a mild Edelbrock cam, 500 Edelbrock carburetor, chrome
Edelbrock manifold, chrome Edelbrock water pump, Ford Racing valve
covers, Taylor yellow wires, all braided lines, and a Yellow
painted block/heads. This is a motor you are going to want to show
off! It isn't just about the looks though because it runs extremely
well and delivers a great sound through the 2 1/2 inch exhaust
exiting in chrome tips. Combined with the engine is a rebuilt Ford
C4 automatic transmission to send power back to the Ford 9 inch
rear end. The car is set up to ride down the highway comfortably as
well as around town with 3:00 gearing. Disc brakes are in place up
front and drums in rear. It also has a Mustang II style front end
with 2 inch drop spindles. Underneath the back is a a custom made
stainless steel gas tank with stainless steel fuel lines. It does
get driven so you will find some chips on the undercarriage here
and there but it is still very very nice with a large majority of
the components being painted Yellow.
The interior is very cleanly done but before we get start on that
lets take a look at the suicide doors that get you in there. We
have seen many street rods over the years but this one has a very
well designed feature that we don't think we have seen yet. Most
suicide door cars have safety pins for added security because the
last thing you want to do is bump the door handle while flying down
the road. Well these pins instead of being mounted in the door are
actually mounted in the kick panels. This means that you will never
accidentally chip your paint by slamming the doors with the pins
out. It's pretty clever! If that isn't enough they also have a
beeping alarm that will sound until you lock them before heading
out on your drive. Inside, the car has dual bucket seats with
headrests. They are upholstered in a nice Black leather with custom
Burgundy and Black vinyl inserts. The headliner is all cloth and
along with the Black carpet is in excellent condition. Through the
floor is a Lokar shifter with 8 ball knob and a Lokar emergency
brake handle. The dash is all nicely painted Yellow and is topped
with Ford script gauges and a matching clock. It has a custom drop
down section for the tilt steering column which is topped off with
one of the coolest custom steering wheels out there. This leather
wrapped flame wheel is truly a one of a kind and was all custom
fabricated. There isn't another one like it. Up above there is an
overhead console which has a small storage section, an Alpine
stereo with AM/FM/CD player and switches for the headlights and
wipers. You will note multiple toggle switches in place and these
are a great example of how well this car was thought out and
designed. An additional 2 switches were put in place for future
features. They are not currently hooked up but it means if you
decide to add something requiring one in the future you will not
have to the interior modified. It also has a Vintage Air mini gen 2
AC/Heat/Defrost unit in place but it is not currently hooked up.
However that would be fairly easy to do with the addition of a
condenser and compressor.
We have written multiple times in this description about the
blending of custom street rod with originality. Well open up the
deck lid and you will find the original style rumble seat that has
been fully upholstered to match the rest. How cool is that?
This 1933 is a gorgeous car with zero corners cut anywhere. If you
want one of the coolest street rods on the road then this is a car
you need to consider.
