For Sale at Auction: 1932 Ford Highboy in Columbus, Ohio

Vehicle Description

This 1932 Ford Highboy custom topless roadster is powered by a supercharged Edelbrock crate V-8 engine producing 507hp and 487 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. The engine features a full roller valvetrain and aluminum cylinder heads. Built by Roy Brizio Street Rods in 1987 for Vic Edelbrock, the car remained owned by Edelbrock and his estate until August 2025. The chassis utilizes a custom smoothed and fully boxed frame with rear frame modifications for a hidden fuel tank and a pinched front section concealed behind a custom Ron Covell grille. The rear suspension features adjustable coilovers and chrome ladder bars, while the front suspension incorporates a chromed dropped axle, adjustable four-bar setup and cross-steer steering system. Stopping power is provided by polished aluminum four-piston disc brakes at all four corners. The original Halibrand quick-change rear end was later replaced with a Ford 9-inch rear end with Positraction. The exterior is finished in Ferrari Red and features hidden door hinges and smoothed bodywork. A handmade aluminum hood stretched 3 inches beyond stock dimensions is paired with steel louvered hood sides and a custom 1932 grille shortened by 2 inches with polished stainless-steel bars and a leading V-shaped center edge. The handmade aluminum windshield frame incorporates mirror mounts. It rides on one-off three-piece billet knock-off wheels fitted with Goodyear tires. The interior is upholstered in Navy Blue leather with wool carpeting and red pinstriping and includes a fold-down armrest, seat belts, polished aluminum steering column, custom wood dash insert and VDO gauges. Documentation includes original build receipts from Roy Brizio Street Rods, records of later upgrades (including engine, transmission and rear end replacement by Brizio), promotional materials from show appearances, and canceled titles and registrations in Vic Edelbrock's name. **VIN NOTICE: THIS VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS A VIN THE MAY - DEPENDING ON THE STATE OF REGISTRATION - REQUIRE THE BUYER TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AND BE SUBJECT TO A STATE-ISSUED VIN AND/OR OTHER REQUIREMENTS OF THE STATE**
