1932 Ford Highboy Roadster
T hank you Henry! To this day, hot rodders around the universe pay homage to Henry Ford for his venerable 1932 model – a piece of Americana that continues to be reinterpreted and reinvented like no other car in the world. And, not surprisingly, the two-seat, roadster style of the ’32 Ford remains the most popular.
Since the ‘40s, no car has been as coveted among hot rodders as the ’32 Ford, and that popularity continues today. What’s more, there’s absolutely no question that the “Highboy” style, with its simple design, absence of fenders and proud stance, is the very foundation of hot rodding, as we know it.
The highboy actually traces its roots back to the South California dry lakes where those cars were mercilessly raced, wrecked, rebuilt, and all the while gaining in popularity.
The sleek lines of the original Deuce, coupled with its V8 engine, were as appealing to new car buyers in 1932 as they are today. Whether powered by its original flathead or a more modern power plant, and regardless of other amenities, these are great collector cars, each possessing something unique from each other.
The extraordinary example featured here, known as the “.32 Revolver,” is the first car to win hot rodding’s Triple Crown – the Ridler Award, the Boise Award and the award for America’s Most Beautiful Roadster, and remains an incredible example of coolness.
The price for Highboys covers the gamut. And don’t be surprised to pay in excess of $100,000 for one with a remarkable build sheet and show history. -Larry Sanata
