This clean 1934 Ford 3-window coupe is a great take on one of the most popular shapes of all time. Few other cars capture the look of speed and impeccable styling of the 1934 Ford coupeand#44; and its great to see what a classic color combination can do on an old favorite. The body is from Street Beasts and is a pretty good duplicate of the timeless 1934 Ford 3-window coupe. Built not too long agoand#44; it still shows extremely well and is instantly recognizable to anyone who has opened a car magazine. Very nicely finishedand#44; it shows good panel gapsand#44; the hood fits welland#44; and the fiberglass was properly prepped before paint. And speaking of paintand#44; high-gloss black is always a great choice on a rod like thisand#44; but theres some purple metalflake in it that really makes this one stand out when the sun hits it just right. It looks even better with ghost flames on the hoodand#44; and if you want to take it up a notchand#44; a professional cut and buff would make this one sparkle in a big way. 1939 Ford teardrop taillights are a traditional touch and a billet grille insertand#44; chrome headlightsand#44; plus factory-style door handles and bumpers all make this Ford look very proper indeed. While a lot of these cars make due with basic chairs from a late-modeland#44; this one sports stunning full-custom drivers compartment that is both retro and modern at the same time. The sculpted door panels and seats are definitely hallmarks of expert hot rodding interior designand#44; but the two-tone high-end vinyland#44; adjustable backrestsand#44; and wood-rimmed steering wheel on a tilt column are all right up to date. Simple Stewart Warner gauges are arrayed ahead of the driverand#44; keeping a close eye on all the engines vitals. The dash has been sculpted to look a lot like the original 1934 Fordand#44; including the center-mounted tach taking the place of the originals radioand#44; although an AM/FM/CD stereo now lives under the center stack. The trunk is unfinishedand#44; but thats a big part of why the price is so reasonable and where you can really add some value without breaking the bank. Driving is easy when power is supplied by a 302 cubic inch Ford V8. For any rod youre going to driveand#44; reliability is paramountand#44; so a simpleand#44; proven combination is always bestand#44; which means a Holley 4-barrel carburetor on a polished intake manifoldand#44; a Mallory ignition systemand#44; an oversized aluminum radiator with electric fanand#44; and a set of block-hugging headers. Theres a bit of chrome on hand for those of you who like popping the hood at showsand#44; but it doesnt get in the way of going down the road. The custom exhaust system uses Thrush mufflers and turn-downs just ahead of the rear axleand#44; which is a Ford 8.8-inch axle and suspension setup from a Mustang. The front suspension is typical Mustang II hot rod fareand#44; complete with disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering for easy handling. A custom gas tank hangs out back and it rolls on spiffy aluminum Weld wheels with 185/65/15 front and 275/60/15 rear radials. This rod will create instant friendships among people who see it and it remains a great-driving machine that is built to cruise. If youre looking for a great car to enjoy at shows and on the roadand#44; one where you can still add value and tinker a bitand#44; here it is. Call today! |
