Description : Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is pleased to present this bright red 1932 Ford Roadster replica. Custom built with a Westcott body, complete with rumble seat, this peppy Ford roadster is a Ford lover's dream. The drivetrain consists of a potent Ford 351, which is topped by a Holley 4BBL carb and aluminum intake and features a Mallory distributor for sure-fire ignition. Cast iron exhaust manifolds feed into the Flowmaster-equipped dual exhaust system, which has polished stainless megaphone tips. A Ford C4 3-speed automatic transmission sends power to the Ford rear end. Suspension is courtesy of QA1 adjustable coilover shocks up front, and leaf springs in back. A Mustang II steering rack provides for good steering feel, and fresh radial tires at all 4 corners provide sure handling and ride comfort. While the body and rear fenders are fiberglass, the front fenders, hood, grill surround, and running boards are steel, and the paintwork on all is very nicely done. Inside, the interior looks practically unused, with good black carpet, and black synthetic leather seating with red accent stitching to match the red body. The rumble seat is also equipped with the same synthetic leather, enhancing the presentation. Interior passengers will appreciate the racing-inspired seat belts, and the cold-blowing A/C. The black canvas top is fully removable for those days that top-down (in this case, "top off") motoring is desired. The Sony head unit pumps out the tunes via the Pioneer speakers. Drivers will enjoy the adjustability that the tilt steering column provides, along with the easy-to-read Stewart Warner gauges. Nab this vintage street rod, and toss the kids or grandkids in the rumble seat for a fun tool-around in the neighborhood!

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.
