1932 Ford 3-Window Coupe

This 1932 Ford 3-Window coupe was the recipient of a custom build that utilizes a boxed frame, an open hood, and rear-hinged doors along with Mickey Thompson tires and American Racing aluminum wheels. A triple-carbureted Buick Nailhead V8 provides power by way of a 4-speed manual transmission with a Hurst shifter, and the interior features, power windows, and full aftermarket gauges. Finished in matte light blue with custom pinstriping over a two-tone blue and cream vinyl interior, this hot rod coupe is now offered with a clear Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.

This coupe rides on a boxed frame and was the subject of an older restoration and repaint in matte light blue, with hand-drawn pinstriping over a straight fiberglass body. Condition is reported to be good throughout, with exception of a half-inch crack in the fiberglass. Exterior design consists of an open front clip, rear-hinged doors, a fender-less side profile, and dual polished exhaust outlets at the rear.

Polished aluminum 16” American Racing Rodmaster wheels are wrapped in staggered-width tires, with BF Goodrich Radial T/A rubber up front and Mickey Thompson Sportsman S/T tires in the rear. The braking system has Buick finned drums.

The two-seat interior is fitted with two-tone blue and cream vinyl upholstery, with matching lap belts and door panels. Blue carpeting is topped by color-matched floor mats, and amenities include power windows, a Hurst T-handle shifter, and a fully finished trunk in matching materials. There are photos in the gallery illustrating some specific cosmetic blemishes with chipping paint around the interior.

Replacement SW-branded instruments at the center of the dash offer a 160-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The five-digit odometer reads 3,600 miles, although true mileage on the chassis is unknown.

The replacement Buick Nailhead V8 features triple two-barrel carburetors and is said to be free of leaks, residing in a fully-detailed engine bay with dress-up bright accents and Offenhauser-branded valve covers. Power is directed to the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual transmission.

Photos showing the fully-painted underside are available in the gallery.
