1932 Ford Highboy Roadster Description

With an unusually low number of miles logged since its build, and sporting both an appealing color scheme and a powerful, yet very street-worthy drivetrain, this 1932 Ford Highboy Roadster promises a future of enjoyable open-air motoring adventures and a steady supply of admiring glances for its next lucky owner.
You can really appreciate the timeless look this Highboy has. Memorialized in countless movies, it just exudes nostalgic motoring essence. With that ornate grille serving as the centerpiece to its rugged-looking front end and the open-sided engine compartment, it would look equally at home leaving a trail of smoking rubber behind it or just cruising the boulevard. It sits low over its wheels and has a slightly-inclined, aggressive stance amplified by the asphalt-hugging, oversized tires in back. It's easy to see that this was an exacting build - its well-applied blue metallic paint job sits on a body with even gaps between panels and doors that open and close easily. Take a look at the ornate steel molding that runs from the windshield back to the rear bumper and you'll see how level it remains as fender transitions to door back to fender. It's been garage-kept and covered, as well, and looks it, with fresh chrome on its bumpers, suspension components, headlight bezels and windshield trim that give it a great, 'newly-minted' appearance.
You'll notice that the Roadster's body tapers outward from nose to cockpit and that width yields some definite benefits as far as comfort is concerned. Unlike a number of designs from this era, this cabin is plenty wide enough to accommodate full-sized occupants, with a generous amount of shoulder and leg room, and you'll find a nicely-crafted, gray vinyl interior inside. In front of the custom, padded steering wheel that's sitting on top of a tilt column, you'll see a full complement of Classic Instruments gauges to monitor speed, voltage, fuel level, oil pressure and temperature - mounted inside a sparkling steel dash sporting the same blue metallic hue as the exterior. The gray bench seat looks plush and padded and its "tuck and roll' look is well-matched by the door panels and quarter trim on both sides of it. In back, there's a very spacious storage area lined with the same low-profile gray carpet that sits up front in the cabin.
With the exposed sides of this Highboy's engine compartment, its powerplant is on full display and it's certainly worthy of the attention. The Chevy V8 that resides inside is decked out with a whole host of chrome add-ons, including the valve covers, intake manifold, radiator hose, alternator and starter. It's paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission and fires right up and idles both smoothly and surprisingly quietly as well. Up front sits an amply-sized radiator, accompanied by an electric fan to keep temperatures down, regardless of driving conditions. The coilover suspension is in its prime and ready to provide a nice comfortable driving experience, and when it's time to come to a stop, you've got disc brakes in front and drums in the rear. This timeless, open air roadster sits on a set of 15" American Racing rims, wrapped in B.F. Goodrich T/As, with 215s in front and monstrous, asphalt grabbing 275s in back.
