Still putting the history together. It has been in a garage in Mass since 1960. I will do this car in a very classic Hot Rod style. The only body mod will be filling the roof with steel vs. the wood and canvass top. I will paint her gloss black with a tasteful pin stripe. I will add a 1957 325 Dodge Hemi. Put a nice stance on her. Modernize the brakes, suspension and wiring so I can drive her as fast as I want. I will leave all the metal on this car, fenders, everything. Such a rare find and a rare opportunity.

 

That's what I was wondering. Love to hear the "find" story. Your a lucky guy to find that gem.

 

Good Call! I wonder what something like tis would go for at an auction? Ya don't see them this complete and original anymore!

 

I couldn't bring myself to touch that paint...it's cool as-is.

 

I like it myself. HRP

 

I would get it running and just drive it. Whens the last time you saw a complete 5w 32' with a B motor? Or just a 32' with a B motor?

 

well you definitely live up to your name man..... GOOD SCORE!

 

^^^^^

What Larry said!!!!!! DD

 

What a find! Henry or Edsel or whoever did those looks right the first time. Thanks for sharing

 

Hah...When's the last time YOU drove in traffic? I even hate to drive my F100 in today's traffic, surrounded by jackasses in front wheel drive tin cans they drive like Dodgems...

 

One state away and I missed it Good Find congrats

 

nice score, there still out there ! well done !

 

Wow!....Just Wow!

 

Leave it as is. Way to cool. Fill the roof ?? Are you kidding ?

nice little Coupe .

 

Slow down, and think about the paint.........put some Gibbs oil on it for now.

 

My .02.... Get her back on the road driving safe, gather the parts for your build and wait before changing anything.

 

WOW ! is right. Glad it's up to you to decide. Love your ideas but it's so rare I'd be tempted to put a cloth top back in, restore it, and maybe some juice brakes, then drive it.
Even leaving the body and paint alone is a great idea.
Once you change it it's not an original rare car anymore. It'll be just ANOTHER 32 Ford.

 

Damn ! Now I know why your name is Lucky Mike ! Nice find.

Don't touch the paint....and especially DONT fill the roof. It will look like a glass car. Nice find, just my opinion.

 

Nice, as others have said DONT fill the roof!! - leave the paint and get her driving, drop a Riley head and an overdrive in the T-tube then just drive it.

Shout if you ever want to sell it, im also in CO!

 

For sure.
