Very cool vintage rod. I think I'm missing something though. The ad says it's a '32 and mentions the original cowl gas tank. I'm under the impression that the cowl tank went out with the Model A in '31. Did the B model in '32 with the 4 banger retain the cowl tank? What's the scoop?

It's a '30 on '32 rails.

Thanks, guess I don't read very well. It was right in the listing and I missed it.

I would like to see some provinance on the car. When was it built, where and by who. If this is a 50's-60's hot rod survivor it might be worth the money BUT if its a newer "retro look" build its way overpriced. No matter what it is not a Duece and never will be. Model A roadsters don't fetch the money unless they have a serious history. Chuck

On the other hand Chuck, there are more supposed 32 Fords registered now than were ever built! I believe 32s were only made for about 8 months. It was common practice to use A bodies for rods, often on 32 frames if available. A goodly number of 32s these days are in affect total fabrications. The're affectively U builts, almost nothing original about them. Can't say that about this car!. I don't know what this car is worth, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it go for a pretty good price...

I'm thinking the engine is a "Thunderbird" engine because of the valve covers.  I guess he could call it a "truck" engine because of the ex manifolds too but it wouldn't sound as good. Tongue
