1933 Ford Speedstar -- Description

Looking for maximum visual impact with tons of power to go along with it? Check out this 1933 Ford Speedstar. Its angular body, dressed in a classic hotrod color scheme, is sure to pull focus while the rumbling big block under the hood stands by to smoke the beefy rear tires with a mere tap on the accelerator. This ride is certainly no shrinking violet - it will standout in any crowd and in the best possible... way. Speedstars are all about making a strong, well-crafted statement and this '33 definitely does that, with its fiberglass body clad in glossy black paint that's dressed with flames while teaming with a sizable engine to provide an outstanding power to weight ratio. The sharp incline of the grille and front windshield combine with the chopped cabin and shaved door handles for an appearance that's both classic and futuristic at the same time and the exposed front suspension affords you a great look at its polished components. With the front end hunkered down over the front axle and the rear perched over some seriously sizable rubber in back, it gives the impression that this Speedstar is poised to strike as the streetlight turns from red to green - which, of course, it is. The sleek red leather interior provides a perfect contrast to the exterior and shows plenty of craftsmanship and detail. There's a lot of room inside this cockpit - the pair of bucket seats are nice and broad and there's quite a bit of available real estate in front of them to accommodate taller drivers. A custom center console puts the shifter within easy reach and just in front of it, the dash area carries a trio of white-faced TPI gauges to monitor vital engine functions. At its center, a flip down monitor navigates the Kenwood stereo, which includes speakers mounted adjacent to the seats, as well as separate tweeters for a top notch audio experience. Even the trunk is dressed to the nines, with its combination of leather walls and spotless red carpeting. When a car carries as much visual impact as this one does, you'd rightfully expect plenty of accompanying performance capability. Rest assured that this modded Ford delivers it in abundance. There's a 502 cubic inch big block eagerly waiting to spring into action just under that long sloping hood, and it's armed with an array of top tier components to get the most out of its substantial displacement, including a pair of Edelbrock Performer headers and an Edelbrock 4-barrel carb as well as a performance cam that adds a great rumbling lope without wreaking havoc on available vacuum. The big block pairs with a 4-speed automatic 700r4 transmission and exhales into a pair of Hooker headers to minimize backpressure and send a deep commanding note out through the Borla dual exhaust. Up front, there's a sizable aluminum radiator that teams with an electric cooling fan to keep operating temperatures under control and the surrounding collection of polished accessories in the engine bay provides eye candy galore - even more stands by just outside in the form of chrome upper and lower control arms and polished coilovers in both front and back. Disc brakes at all four corners that feature polished, drilled and slotted rotors for excellent heat dissipation provide plenty of stopping ability, while a set of American Racing combo wheels that are sized 17" in front and a full 20" in back give this one of a kind ride an awesome inclined stance. You don't often come across the combination of top tier components and outstanding craftsmanship offered by this 1933 Ford Speedstar. Call today!
