1932 Ford Mirage Roadster - Show Quality

1932 Ford Mirage Roadster Additional Info:

One of a kind, Custom Show Quality '32 Roadster. Photo documented build, with 2200 trouble free miles. It drives like an exotic sports car, with superb handling and braking, a supple, comfortable ride even over railroad tracks, attributed to its 112” wheelbase and 4 wheel independent suspension, and the power of a late model muscle car. It's interior and legroom are comfortable even for tall occupants. Needless to say, it is the center of attention everywhere it is seen. This roadster was built by Jerry Kugel and his crew at Kugel Komponents.

The practiced eye will immediately notice that this is not a stock 1932 Ford Roadster body. The overall look is enhanced by it’s low stance and modern wheels, but the body is actually a fiberglass version of the beautiful, hand made custom bodies created by Jesse Greening. They are sleeker, longer, and lower than a Ford, with raised rear wheel openings enhancing the effect. This same car with an all steel body would be valued in the range of $250,000 or more.
