1932 Ford Roadster Street Rod – Brookville Steel Body, TCI Chassis, 450 HP Ford Small-Block V8, Vintage Air, Ron Mangus Interior

Some cars turn heads. This one stops traffic.

It has a 302ci 450 HP Ford small-block under the hood and a modern chassis underneath, so it looks like a classic and drives like a dream.

Built the Right Way, Inside and Out

Starting with a Brookville all-steel body on a TCI chassis, this roadster was built for the real-world street rod experience: strong, smooth, and comfortable.

Power comes from a new Ford small-block V8 with aluminum heads, making 450 horsepower. It is paired with a C-4 automatic transmission, a 2600 Continental converter, and a 9-inch rear end with 3.31 gears, a combination built for effortless cruising with plenty of muscle on demand. Best of all, Vintage Air heating and cooling makes this roadster comfortable in any season.

In 1932, Ford put a V8 within reach of everyday Americans, and the hot-rod movement was born. Nearly a century later, the '32 Roadster is still the most recognizable symbol of that culture: low, lean, open to the sky, and unmistakably American.

More than a vintage Ford, this is a symbol of American ingenuity, individuality, and the freedom of the open road.

Turn-key street rods with this level of build don't last long.
