Previously this car was part
of Gary Robertson’s collection, a renowned collector of real tin 1932 Ford for
many decades. When I bought this coupe in 2009 this car was registered for the
last time until March 1972.
This original coupe kept all
the original things including the functional cowl hood vent, the functional
front windshield, the functional rear window, the cowl lights, the factory door
hinges and handles. And the more important, it's a very rare unshopped top! No
rust and No patch on this 83 years old original Henry Ford steel body!
The steel dash and all the
windows mouldings are chromed in the pure traditional nostalgic theme.
In the interior the red
leather expertly crafted to seamlessly flow throughout the entire cabin
including the headliner. The sweet aroma of leather when you open the door
alone puts a smile on your face.
The chassis is fully boxed. A
Vintage Chassis Works front straight axle is fitted with a Unisteer rack and
pinion steering system. The 9”
rear axle is supported by a triangulated 4-link bar system and adjustable coil-over shocks.
Under the hood lies a vintage
429 Ford engine recently overhauled will all the best. The output of this
engine was rated on dyno at 420 horsepowers and 480 lb. ft. of torque.
Because the motor is located back of the front axle with the battery and the
gas tank located in the rear, the weight is kept in perfect balance between the
front and the rear axle with a ratio of 50/50.
All is kept cool by a genuine Walker cooper radiator.
Putting the power to the
ground is a robust C6 recently overhauled too with all the best. In the 9'' rear end a posi-traction unit and
a 2.75 gear ratio set-up was installed allowing a relaxing cruising at 1900 rpm
at 60 mph.
The fuel tank is all steel
measuring 16-gallons.
Braking is performed by a real
set of vintage power-full Buick drum brakes fitted with Ford back-plates. No
fake-drum here. And no need to worry, these brakes are from a Buick Electra 225
and are made to stop big car.
The wheels are powder-coated
original 1935 Ford 16'' genuine wire wheels and they are a perfect fit with the
new Firestone 6.00-16 in
the front and 7.50-16 in
the rear.
The entire vehicle was fully
rewired using a Ron Francis fuse panel and harnesses.
All the paint-striping was
done by hand by a renowned old school paint-striper.
Further features and
accessories include a complete Stewart Warner Eagle series gauges, Lokar
shifter, cowl lights with built in flasher, halo-gene headlights, vintage
Philco-Ford radio, Cobra seatbelts.
This is truly a sharp 1932
Henry Steel Ford Coupe that can be utilized for shows, cruises, and touring
immediately!
