Selling my super clean, Viper Red,1932 Ford 3-window Coupe. There are lots of 32 Fords out there, but not many with a Chevy Big block 454 with manual 5 speed transmission. It is a blast to drive! The build started from scratch in 2005 and was completed in 2009. Built using all new parts. The only used part is the engine block which came from a 1969 Corvette. It has been bored, line honed, and decked. On the top end is all new Edelbrock parts.
No corners were cut. It is quick and has plenty of power. Super fun shifting through the gears of her 5-speed manual transmission. It cruises at freeway speeds under 2000 RPMs. The A/C blows super cold for those hot summer days.
There is nothing missing from this street rod, she is ready to go. It has been meticulouslycared for. Gets looks everywhere it goes.
During the summer of 2011 while the original builder was working at So-Cal Speed Shop he had every employee sign thedashboard. Including Pete Chapouris, Jimmy Shine, and Alex Xydias. Here are some of the details…

I’ve own many You will love it. Drives like a sports car. Paint is excellent. The interior still smells like new. The underneath is as nice as the exterior. The electrical was meticulously wired. The entire build was well thought out and built with attention to detail and ease of maintenance. This car was not thrown together, to make a fast buck. Whoever buys it won’t be disappointed!
