1932 Ford Roadster Deuce Deluxe

Ford Other 1932 Description

Here is a real Ford factory metal 1932 Roadster built in May as a V8 car and up for sale for the first time since 1969.

History

In 1969 Coy T. bought this Deuce Roadster out of Salt Lake City. He dragged it up to Washington State and breathed life into it again. See the photos below of Coy and his Dad working on it when they first brought it home. Over the years the Deuce Roadster was Coy's favorite car to hit the road with and have fun. He drove it all over the country and several times to the LA Roadster show. Today it drives just as well. Turn the key and go out onto the next destination.

Exterior

Painted in a 1971 Oldsmobile color it can be described as a gun metal grey and black fenders. Many original parts are on this car: bumpers and brackets headlights door handles cowl lights windshield and posts redone by Girth Welding. 16" Kelsey Hayes rims with bigs and littles Michelin radials. The rears are created reverse deep dish. Wind wings full side curtain set. The top is solid with no rips but is faded from many years of driving.

The Sheet Metal

The original sheet metal is in great overall condition for its age. Excellent hood grille and shell rumble lid rear fenders firewall unaltered working cowl vent Drake running boards solid body. Dual side mounts that I removed which shows the wells and subsequent necessary mounting holes. There is a patch over the gas tank and the pan under the seat has been replaced. At one time it had hot rod tail lights in the body rear and had rumble handles on the rear deck.

Mechanics

The original frame is in excellent shape and has not been cut to fit the slender '66 Chevy 283 motor. Yes an odd combo with a single Stromberg 97 but it runs great and it totally reliable for highway driving. The 283 is connected to a '39 Ford transmission and a '40 Ford rear end. Juice brakes work just fine single quiet exhaust dropped heavy '32 axle tube shocks. Stock pedal assembly slightly modified for the juice brake set up.
