Description
Lot #1129 - This one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted 1932 Ford Hi-Boy is an exquisite example of automotive art. Invited in 2007 to participate at the prestigious Peterson Museum's commemoration of the 1932 Ford, this custom roadster was built to show and win awards. To accomplish such a long, sleek look, bodywork modifications were extensive and the hood and doors were extended by nearly 2'. Award-winning custom paint, using nine brilliant colors features flames running on the sides as well as underneath the car. Fully polished Indy car inspired twin A-arm style suspension with pushrod actuated dampers give this car a sporty look. Power comes from a 350cid LT1 with aluminum heads and twin turbos running through a front mount intercooler. A 700R4 overdrive automatic and real Halibrand quick-change rear end send power to the wide rear tires. Custom one-off polished billet Budnik wheels with 16" fronts and 18" rears give the car a perfect stance.
