The Ford Coupe became one of the most iconic symbols of American Hot Rodding due to its availability, design, and appearance. The Hot Rod movement really took off in the 1950s and remains popular in modern times. This particular Hot Road was built using a 1931 body and a 1932 Ford Chassis. It has a discreet pop-up fuel filler lid, and over lapping door seams. In the front is a 1932 Ford grille shell. It has a dropped front axle with original Buick drums, a heavily modified Ford frame, and a more modern rear axle with adjustable coil over shocks. It rides on traditional steel wheels with period white wall tires. Power is from a Chevy V8 fitted with a four-barrel carburetors and space saving headers. The small block runs through a three speed automatic. The interior is traditional hot rod black pleating, understated dash, and a set of traditionally styled VDO gauges.By Daniel Vaughan | Apr 2016
