Traditional
Hotrods and original classic Fords from
1928-1948
1932
Ford 3W Coupe
This
'32 3W streetrod was a joint effort between Ed's Rod Shop and
US-Autoteile in Unterhaid, Germany. The aim was to build a reliable
daily driver rod. Featuring a 350SBC and a TH350 automatic transmission.
The rear axle used was a late Fox type Mustang with a limited slip diff.
We found that a C6 Corvette aluminium driveshaft fitted right in with no
shortening required. The Corvette driveshaft is made of aluminium and
polishes up to a great shine. Despite being a modern streetrod we went
for a late fifties style and fitted the car with reproduction Dodge
Lancer hupcaps and trimmed out the interior with black tuck 'n' roll.

This
is the rolling chassis ready to receive it's freshly painted body.
The
SBC had a nice sounding tickover to it.
Harley
Davidson directional indicators and '50 Pontiac rear lights were used.
Getting
close to the end.
The
steering wheel is a 15" reproduction of the popular 1940 Ford 'wheel.
Headlights
are reproductions of the original '32 lamps. The bench seat used was a
Dodge Caravan center seat.
The
first time on the road with oldtimer hot rodder Ron looking on!
