Ford Model B 1934
General description :
For sale in our showroom is a one of a kind 1934 Ford Panther Coupe with three Chevy 350 small blocks under the hood. Yes that is right, three SBC’s under the hood making it 19ft with a 158 inch wheelbase!! Although the three engines appear identical, the front and rear generate the power; the middle engine functions as a critical part of the cooling system. It is loaded with a Turbo 400 transmission, four wheel disc brakes, 4 wheel independent suspension, rack and pinion power steering with stainless steel steering shaft and joints, chrome plated 1983 Corvette rear end, and an air ride control system. Not a vehicle like this in the world…this spectacular award-winning 24- cylinder “Panther” boasts three Chevy 350 engines within a custom-made frame and body encased in 16 coats of Imron paint. No detail has been spared on this fancy cat. A very unique and simple exhaust system places 24 pipes through the fender into only two pipes out the back. Its radiator shell and grille are polished stainless steel. Its aluminum air can only be described as magnificent, featuring intricately engraved designs showcasing its namesake panther face. Refined pin-striping highlights the contour of its chassis. All welded joints have been sanded for a smooth high-quality finish. Needless to say, the frame and body are both custom-made to suit this build, with burgundy-painted fiberglass body panels and an air actuated aluminum hood, complimented by plenty of polished stainless steel pieces. The pneumatic aluminum hood uses 160 psi of air with five separate air cylinders under the dash to open/close with a switch. Much of the interior is wrapped in Bridge of Weirs Red Leather, with a simple, elegant pinstriped dash hosting classic-looking analog gauges framed by gold-colored bezels, and custom engraved stainless steel kick plates. The convertible top is also custom built with chrome arms, hinges, and hardware with custom Mahogany bows. It’s a true attention to detail show piece, guaranteed to turn heads!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
