We could tell you this 1932 Ford Hi Boy Roadster is a cut-above creationand#44; but you already knew that. One look at the amazing exterior paintand#44; expert finish workand#44; and how the total package is fully coordinatedand#44; and you realize they probably carpeted the trunk just so it would be easier to take home awards. If you were wondering if this roadster looks as good in person as it does in the picturesand#44; the answer is no... its so much better in real life. Fit and finish is spectacularand#44; with uniform gaps and super smooth body panels. Thats what you get when you start with a body from the fiberglass masters at Harwood. And theres less than 2and#44;700 miles on the whole buildand#44; so all that investment in an exceptionally bright paint has not lost its luster. In factand#44; this color is called Perfect Purple and we couldnt agree more. Areas that are normally chromed like the grilleand#44; headlight surroundsand#44; and windshield are painted because this super smooth color should be showcased everywhere. Well thatand#44; and the real attention-getter are those flames. A complete custom application runs the full length of this extended bodyand#44; and we know youll love spending time comparing how each individual side looks different as the white hot flame goes thorough its five-color transition into blue vapors. On any other hot rod the cool Boyd Coddington wheels would be the main attractionand#44; but on this impressive buildand#44; the aggressive 15/18-inch staggering front/rear of the cool alloys are just more of the premium touches youd expect on arguably the best 32 Ford custom youve ever seen. They spared no expense with the interiorand#44; too. Purple leather seatingand#44; plush purple carpetsand#44; and the slick exterior purple returning to the dash make for a total package thats built to impress. The details will make you say wow every time you step inside and look at the pattern on the door panels or how its repeated as part of the custom center console. The only pieces that arent purple inside are the components that are built for performance. The shifterand#44; pedalsand#44; full Classic Instruments gauge paneland#44; and Boyd Coddington steering wheel are all finished in polished metaland#44; almost like a great shining reminder that this is a true drivers machine. In factand#44; on a day that you get caught out cruising in bad weatherand#44; theres a full black folding top with side curtains. And when its in placeand#44; the silhouette helps emphasize the aggressive windshield rake of this build. Most people need a mirror in the engine bayand#44; but the purple used on this car is so smooth that when you open the hoodand#44; it provides all the reflection you need to check out every inch of this V8. This 355 cubic-inch small block is car show ready with the purple matching valve coversand#44; wiresand#44; and air filter. And of course all the polished components will keep people marvelingand#44; too. But when you look beyond the flashand#44; youll happily see some great performance substance in this hot rod. Below the Brodix valve covers are Brodix headsand#44; a competition camand#44; and dual four-barrel carburetors. The wicked growl of the dual exhaust lets everyone know this nice-looking build is really a beastand#44; and with the aluminum radiator and electric fan you have the confidence to show this one off everywhere. And the impressiveness doesnt end in the engine bay. Have you picked up yet on how the whole TCI chassis is painted? Now take a look at the undercarriage shots. Youll love placing a mirror underneath this one to let people see how the only pieces that arent purple are the polished components like the three-link front suspension and coilover rear. And if these components also sound like great hot rod driving featuresand#44; then the front disc brakes and grippy BF Goodrich Comp T/As will have you excitedand#44; too. |
