The Quintessential Hot Rod!

[@2-old-Forthischet]

Back in 1969, I found a 32 hot rod roadster with a hemi and a 36 Ford ragtop rusting in a farmer's field in Sunnymead, CA. He didn't want to sell them because he was going to "restore" them one day.

[@BangBang-hk4rg]

Those guys are the worst. I guarantee you those cars sat there and rusted into the ground.

[@johnhughes1783]

​@@BangBang-hk4rgUnfortunate yet understandable since it's a link to their memories to younger days. It would help if you were a neighbor and you could let him know he could still be part of it. Idk if that would work unless he had a wife who was pressuring him, otherwise those guy's can't let go.

[@duncandmcgrath6290]

@@BangBang-hk4rg You call them the worst because you don't understand their situation...if you're a car guy you would .

[@ShogunAutoworks]

​@@duncandmcgrath6290 i understand the sentiment notnthe actions. Its the automotive equivalent of not being able to service your wife anymore and another man can, you dont have any interest in laying a finger on her anymore you dont even look at her. But everytime a man comes that would, and shes willing, you leave her chained in the outhouse laying in filth eating rats that happen to scamper by at night. Yeah good times but if you cared about the car any amount whatsoever youd at least rather see someone do something than to see the thing just rot till the wheels fall off and its so bad it cant even be moved at all for you or anyone. Ive had my mustang since i was 16 no kids my wife cant even drive it because its 5 speed swapped. I met her in it and i married her at wge 31 in it. But ill be damned if id let that car sit and rot before id find someone that loved it and wanted to give it love to get it back on the road. If i dont have any kids by then damn ill find someone. A friends kid, a neice nephew, someone. The cutlass in my profile pic was my grandfathers. He died. My grandma wants to enjoy it a lil longer then sell it She cant drive it shes damn near blind now. They went to cruising the coast every single year in that car and my wife and i from dating to married rode with em in the back, top down. At some point (grandma for example) you gotta let it go if you care as much as you say you do. Otherwise its gonna sit in that shop or field going to shit as a daily reminder that you are too. Id rather pass it along or sell it while its still good and remember it that way, than see it going to junk under an oak tree covered in briars and bird shit. not how i wanna remember it.

[@ShogunAutoworks]

​@@johnhughes1783 absolutely correct. Given what i said id be more apt to sell to someone near me that would let me continue to enjoy it as they clean her up.

[@johnclemans7802]

That's real old school hot rodding. Love the flat head power! Keep up the great videos.

[@jefferyschirm4103]

It was the moon shiners that built the real rods !!

[@verothacamaro]

Thanks for sticking a flattie in there and keeping it period correct.

[@hornetbrown]

Door knob recycled as a shifter knob. Sweet.

[@andyderby150]

I need to start telling people I got a 69 charger frame 😉👍

[@ramcharger154]

Mopar guys ain't sharing shit. Biggest pack rat motherfuckers ever!😂

[@the_car_guy5915]

If you tell people that and they believe you, you'll be getting all the wrong parts. LMAO

[@Ecosse57]

even on a budget that's some big bucks there. slick-looking car just the same.

[@georgepavich8266]

Me and my cousin went go shoot rifles at my granny's that's where I found a 32 3 window I was 14 I had every hot rod guy in the hood helping put that beast back together

[@deanfordcreative]

My dad had a 32 Model B, 5 window with the rumble seat. 95% original. Tweaks to the radiator, starter and battery added. But he sold it to a friend and it was a steal. Gawd I wish I still had it.

[@fredflintstone8048]

So true. Stepping up from a model A, a 31 for example to a 32 is a huge increase in costs. It's moving to a much higher class of hotrod.

[@PurplePaddy]

Run around sue great tune !

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Yes!

[@andrewmiller2906]

I like the music too 🇺🇸.Have fun.

[@RinkyRoo2021]

that doesn't really count using a brookville body .....what I learned after working on hot rods and the whole restoration game .......is I absolutely hate " car dudes" .

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-2025]

Car hobby guys tend to stick together and help out

[@johnperun232]

Outstanding work

[@johnschoonmaker-tm3ll]

I went on my first date in a 1932 3 window coupe. Ah such precious memories.

[@Mr19thcenturyman]

My dad told me "If your going to build a car make it the most iconic one" He has since passed on. But his '32 5 window lives on thru many owners.

[@mustangrebuilder]

love it

[@robeatsalcko5760]

Ok. Safe travels

[@kaarsty]

Thanks for the history bits that was fascinating

[@Thedavidsavage]

Very nice ride 😀

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks for watching

[@Thedavidsavage]

@@FourSpeedFilms show me more awesome hotrod's. I need inspiration to build me one

[@anthonysuppa3075]

Nice... if it don't got a flat head, it ain't a hotrod...

[@verothacamaro]

👏👏

[@deanhummel7946]

Very cool car 🇺🇸

[@moo.johnference869]

Next in line is the 1953/ 1956 ford f100 pickup .

[@danielcastorela9109]

20 for a lap dance I get bro it makes no sense..

[@ShogunAutoworks]

I need to do that i reckon. But i wouldnt mind an A either

[@DavidKing-jx3sg]

holy grail is right. nice little rod

[@paisleyprince5280]

In a couple of years they'll be giving 32 ford's away. The guys into them are about to age out of the market

[@hotrodsneverdie]

Keep dreaming.

[@augustrush7538]

Obviously, Someone has a taste for a real vehicle. (Not something made out of all plastic.). Thanks for sharing!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks for watching!

[@Ecosse57]

another steel snob. well la-de-da.

[@augustrush7538]

@Ecosse57. ‘I’m sure your world is full of plastic.’ - You can keep it.

[@ElBadu]

Lol I want my Miata to grow 4 cylinders too

[@starkillerbeats420]

Sbf 302 + miata = much fun

[@bertbccfu9564]

They do it , look up monster miatis

[@OneBad-rk3in]

Why grow 4 when it can grow 6? Check out the “mini viper”. body kit, and a v10 viper swap, and send it!

[@hornetbrown]

It's a Fucking Death Trap with a V8. Do it!😊

[@screwthecrewofpoliticians8921]

I've got a 32 truck with 2 fours,700r4 tranny. They all look when I go by.

[@daleliske9757]

And yet, 90% of ford roadsters have a small block chevy engine between the rails.!

[@dankmazzi2376]

beautiful.

[@neilmaverick7035]

Great story mate

[@MaxChrisinJapan]

I know Steve we worked together at a BMW Dealer he knows his cars.

[@southerncruiser1281]

It’s basically a kit car. A cool kit car, but still a kit car.

[@jessebaca2750]

My uncle Albert Baca at one time Owned the most iconic 32 Ford roadster in history guess which one it was?

[@zepoletto]

Where is the complete video?

[@Mansmyth802]

I have a door handle like that shifter

[@lidlett9883]

The git rid Holly grail is a 3 window 32 ford coupe aka the duce coupe

[@michaelnelson2394]

I have same door handles in my house

[@bertbccfu9564]

Cool and all but with a flattie , I'm a purist at some things, but not much of this is original I would of wanted a fire breathing 6 liter ls swap

[@scotthayes3032]

So essentially it’s a kit car

[@Coolturtledudehellyeah]

So, do you think it’s a real 1932 ford (wondering about opinions)

[@campervanbug7658]

Duces are cool, but im a 38 guy 😎

[@glennwheat50]

33 s are better

[@Byrdznyst]

Would Have Tha Motor N My Living Room.. Tha Rest Is Junk *

[@atleeriksen8514]

"The big guys in hotroddding has a 32"..So if the money is telling you who is a hot rodder, then neither you or the other "hotrodders" is reaL hot rodders. You dont even have a real 32. Its a Brookeville...and the quintessensial hot rod is a 28/29 on 32 rails..if you have done your homework. ;)

[@kennethlaw9830]

Couldn't pay 20k for a body. Who is he kidding. A Brookville body is over 20k and has been 20k for as long as I know.

[@bradevans7935]

If you're in the US, $20K for a Brookville body is a rip-off. 5 minutes of internet research gives me 3 suppliers who sell them between $12.5K and $14K. If you shop around, you can find a body already mounted on a reproduction frame for $17.5K. Sure, if you're outside of North America, you'll pay extra - international freight for a body can get expensive.

[@johnfairchild3421]

My. Daddy had one a. Story my. Momma. Daddy. Liked to. Hot. Rod do one nite he raced a guy and won. But at the end he was. Going to fast to make the turn into the road which. Lead yo home do he flipped it and d even hurt the car

[@scotthayes3032]

Look at me I’m a big boy and I got the 32 Ford that I paid twice as much money for Because if I think I paid twice as much that I am twice is cool and I’m going to make a video about it beat on my chest

[@ericsparks]

34 looks better

[@MrImpalaRider]

Not a 32 ford. Might as well been glass

[@taperface2053]

Holy grail huh a old Ford Reilly. Bro u can order a repop body frame everything if it was a reil 32 then u might have something but u have a kit car knock off repop

[@davok209]

Love it
