Red Ford Model A 5.7L 350 CI V8

The 1932 Ford “Highboy” Roadster is the undisputed king of the street rod world–a silhouette that launched a thousand magazines and defined the very concept of the American hot rod. Stripped of its fenders and running boards, the Highboy exposes the mechanical artistry of the chassis, demanding that every component be as beautiful as it is functional. It is a design that celebrates the rebellious spirit of the post-war dry lakes racers while offering a canvas for modern creativity. This particular example captures that spirit perfectly, combining the timeless lines of the “Deuce” with a level of engineering and comfort that makes it a true grand tourer among roadsters. The cocktail gets more potent when you examine the drivetrain, which is equal parts traditional muscle and sophisticated handling. Power comes from a reliable 350-cubic-inch Chevrolet V-8, ensuring that parts and performance are never in question. It is mated to a Turbo-Hydramatic 350 automatic transmission for smooth cruising. However, the standout feature of this build is the rear suspension; rather than a solid axle, this Highboy utilizes a Corvette independent rear end. This significant upgrade transforms the driving dynamics, allowing the car to soak up bumps and corner with a composure that solid-axle rods simply cannot match. The example offered here utilizes a high-quality Gibbon fiberglass body, finished to a high standard. It was completed in 2003, the result of a comprehensive build with over $70,000 in documented receipts accompanying the sale. The stance is set by a set of Team III wheels that provide the perfect period-correct aesthetic. Inside, the cabin features a full suite of VDO gauges to monitor the engine’s vitals. Crucially, this roadster was built with ergonomics in mind; the interior layout has been specifically modified to accommodate a taller driver, offering a comfortable driving position for an operator up to 6’3″–a rarity in the often cramped world of ’32 Fords. With its independent suspension and driver-centric cockpit, this Highboy is not just a show piece, but a sorted, high-dollar build ready for long-distance enjoyment.
