Ford Hi Boy 1932 Description

At first glance, his looks like your typical old-school '32 Ford hi-boy roadster. But look a little closer and you'll see that not only is it beautifully finished, ut it's got a lot of tricks up its sleeve that combine tradition and innovation in new ways to create something truly special.Would you be surprised to learn that there's over $200,000 wrapped up in the construction of this car? After you see it in person, ou won't have any doubts. The paint is about a mile deep and this is no old-fashioned roadster body, ut a recent creation that does away with "factory imperfections" and instead delivers laser-sharp reflections in the two-stage urethane paint. Dig the exacting gaps, he beautiful fit of the three-piece hood, nd the just-right angle of the grille up front. It's only got 4178 miles since it was built, o there are almost no signs of use. The chopped windshield accentuates the wicked stance and yes, hat's a proper '32 Ford grille shell up front but it, oo, as been chopped and modified to give this car that perfect wedge profile. This is speed incarnate, minimalist tribute to all-out performance, nd it totally works. If you love details, his car will give you something to do for a week as you examine all the lovely custom touches.The black leather interior is pure hot rod tradition, tarting with the pleated bench seat, hich has been skillfully shaped to add space in the compact roadster's cockpit. The doors open suicide-style using billet latches, nd there's more pleated leather on the door panels themselves. A big banjo-style steering wheel re-creates the era and looks great, nd they wisely chose a polished steering column with an exposed shifter for the transmission, reeing up precious floor space for passengers and adding to the cool elemental look. Pretty cream-faced gauges are simple, lean, nd elegant, et into a textured instrument panel that's a refreshing change from the usual billet piece. There's a powerful AM/FM/CD stereo system hidden out of sight and accessed with a remote control, nd in the finest roadster tradition, here is no heater. It does include a great-fitting black canvas top that's completely removable so the clean roadster lines are uninterrupted and it stows neatly in the carpeted trunk with a power actuator for the lid.The engine is an all-aluminum small block Chevy punched out to 401 cubic inches. Topped by aluminum heads, his flyweight powerplant delivers reality-altering acceleration and razor-sharp handling. It also looks incredible under the pointed hood, ith a custom pinstriped air cleaner atop a Holley 4-barrel carburetor and a set of custom valve covers that tie in with the rest of the car. The engine block itself has a beautiful bronze tone to it, iving the engine bay an artistic look that's different from all the other rods out there sporting bright red or Chevy Orange motors. It's linked to a 700R4 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission and a very trick 9-inch rear end with a finned aluminum cover that's just gorgeous from behind. The frame is finished like the bodywork, here's a chrome I-beam axle up front, nd 4-wheel disc brakes, ith the fronts cleverly hidden inside period-looking drums. And one of the car's most remarkable features is the rolling stock: custom-made aluminum wheels designed to look like painted steelies with trim rings and hubcaps. With a modern set of 205/50/17 front and 295/40/20 rear BFGoodrich rubber, t's got that big-n-little stance but modern handling.This is perhaps the most impressive hi-boy we've ever seen. The detailing is spectacular and the overall theme is going to blow everything else away wherever you show it. Call today!
