Vehicle Detail
1932 Ford Roadster This is a very cool real traditional hot rod. It’s been a hot rod for at least over 60 years. It’s most recent build is like that of a pre-war ’40s lakes racer by Mel Stultz of NJ, founder of the “Race of Gentlemen.” This is a fast, fun early hot rod with the reliability of a tank. Everywhere it goes, it gains major attention. It’s been in calendars, “Hot Rod” magazine and featured on a double page spread in “The Rodder’s Journal” #59. BODY / INTERIOR Real Ford Motor Company Roadster steel body No Patch Panels in quarters, doors, truck, grille, cowl, etc.Originally a channeled show rod in the ‘50sNow un-channeled nicely with awesome early hot rod work left in the trunk & wheel-wellsPaint and custom lead work is +60 Years Old.

It starts with just a bump of the starter. It idles like an angry tractor, then sounds like a WWI plane as you head down the road – so cool. That said, this is a real hot rod, but necessarily isn’t for everyone. It uses a little water and drips a little oil. It’s an old car with absolutely no guarantees or warrantees. Please inspect it or have someone inspect it before bidding. 18-xxxx stamped VIN matches the ‘32 title that is clean and clear in my name. Please e-mail me any questions.
