Ford Victoria 350 V8 ZZ Crate Engine 1932
General description :
SUPERB BUILD & GREAT DRIVE! DOWNS BODY, ZZ4 350 V8, 700R4, A/C, LONG SPEC SHEET!
This 1932 Ford Victoria streetrod is unusually well-built and reflects an outstanding attention to detail inside and out, as well as under its hood. Thorough planning, top tier components, and skilled craftsmanship have resulted in a top-quality ride, while plenty of care and shelter bring it to the present looking great and running strong.
The formula of light curb weight plus abundant power has been a winner throughout the ages, and the arrow straight fiberglass body on this '32 combines with what's lurking under the hood to position it for very inspired performance. The quality of the blue metallic paint it's covered with is evident with just a quick glance - it's a PPG product and sits under a very strong clearcoat for a magnetic shine, accented by hand painted tri-color pinstriping. Get up as close as you'd like to it and you'll still be hard-pressed to find any noticeable blemishes - this streetrod has been well looked after during its lifetime and has the ultra-clean look to prove it. There are some great details on display throughout the exterior - a stainless steel grille and generously proportioned Ford headlights sit up front, and the vented 3-piece hood blends in perfectly as it transitions into the cabin just behind it that features a 3" chop for just the right custom appearance.
The tan leather interior was designed and installed from scratch and will stand out in even the most well-heeled of automotive company. From the contoured and ultra-comfortable front bench seat with its separate backrests for driver and passenger, to the door panels, overhead console and beyond, the quality of the details inside the cabin are truly something to behold and everything seems to tie in perfectly. While many streetrods put the emphasis on sheer acceleration, this one has been carefully configured with overall driving experience as a priority. A Vintage Air system keeps things comfortable and the chrome Ididit steering column puts the show stopping custom steering wheel in just the right position while cruise control, power door locks and windows and remote door openers are welcome features you don't often see on cars of this type. The full collection of Ford Motorsports gauges looks great against the blue backdrop of the dash and they, as well as the control knobs and switches just below, are all in good working order.
There's no letup to the exceptional quality as far as the mechanical aspects of this Victoria are concerned. Everything has been put into place to create an outstanding driving experience. A 350 cubic inch V8 sits in the engine compartment, surrounded by inner fenders and a firewall in showroom condition and painted to match the exterior. The powerplant is carrying a pair of aftermarket aluminum heads and an Edelbrock 4-barrel carb and polished intake manifold. It's good for a full 355 horsepower while sending a great sounding exhaust note through its Sanderson headers leading to its dual exhausts. The engine pairs with a 4-speed automatic 700r4 transmission whose overdrive gear keeps revs down on the highway. A dazzling array of chrome components, as well as Billet Specialties brackets and a K&N billet air cleaner, peg the meter on eye candy, while a Walker radiator sits up front with its thermostatically controlled fan to keep operating temperatures under control. The Heidts Superride front end not only provides a nice ride and strong handling via its coilover suspension, but also front disc brakes for fade resistant stops as this exceptional streetrod wows all within viewing distance on its Halibrand wheels with 3-spoke spinners that carry Michelin radials.
Search long and hard and you're still not likely to come across a streetrod as well configured and clean as this 1932 Crown Victoria streetrod. Call today!

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.
