For Sale: 1932 Ford Roadster in North East, Pennsylvania

1932 Ford Roadster For Sale This 1932 Ford roadster is built on the platform that more or less defines American hot rodding. The Deuce roadster is the archetype every other hot rod gets measured against, and this one is assembled as a traditional highboy. A Scott Rods fiberglass body, bobbed at the rear, is finished in black over a brown leather bench seat. A Duvall-style vee'd windshield sets the proportions, and the lighting pulls from the custom-builder's parts bin in both directions, with 1929 American LaFrance fire truck headlights up front and 1959 Pontiac tail lights frenched into the rear.Power comes from a 409 V8, the big-block W-series Chevrolet mill best known from the early 1960s. The induction stays true to that engine's character with a dual-quad arrangement of two Edelbrock four-barrels on an Offenhauser intake manifold, fired by an MSD ignition. The combination has been dyno-tested, so the tune is a known quantity rather than a guess. Behind it is a Tremec TKO500 five-speed manual, a gearbox chosen to handle the torque while keeping highway manners civil, with power sent back through a Ford 9-inch rear end.The foundation under all of it is a Precision Hot Rods chassis, which is where a build like this either holds together or falls apart. Wheel Vintiques artillery wheels carry the traditional look through to the stance, period-appropriate to the body and the lighting choices rather than fighting them. The result reads as a coherent, single-vision build, with the engine, the gearbox, the chassis, and the styling cues all pointing the same direction rather than a collection of unrelated parts bolted to a 1932 body.For a buyer who wants a Deuce roadster with a distinctive driveline and quality hardware throughout, not a kit-car shortcut and not a trailer queen, this is a car built to be driven and shown.NFI Empire specializes in classic, exotic, modified, and luxury vehicles.
