Early 70s build. It’s a gl*** body believe to be a Gibbons. Doors open and close nicely. Paint is the original single stage paint since it was built so it has some patina . Very nice for being over 50 years old. Has cowl vent, rumble seat and exposed hinges. Have hood sides that are currently in primer and will be finish painted. Freshened up 355 small block Chevy and turbo 400 transmission. The frame is an original 1932 Ford frame that has been boxed up front. The hood and grill are also original 1932 Ford parts. Pete and Jake's suspension parts including the Super Bell front axle. Drum brake's all the way around with brand new front wheel cylinders and brake shoes. 10 bolt rear end. Custom 18 inch rear wheels and 16 inches in the front with nearly new Excelsior radials all the way around. In addition to the new wheel cylinders and brake shoes I have restretched the top, added new cowl and radiator lacing, new turbo style mufflers and painted the entire exhaust system after the headers with KBS high heat paint, rebuilt the Edelbrock carb and changed all the rubber fuel lines. (Photos of undercarriage were from before new mufflers and painting of exhaust system) I wouldn’t hesitate to drive this car anywhere. I drove this car from Kansas City to Orlando the first week of November. Other than being a bit chilly on the Northern half of the drive there were no problems.
