Some Shots I Took Of My Fathers 32

Vegas_Sirk · 06-14-2011, 03:59 PM

For father's day I took my Dads 1932 Ford Roadster out to Valley Of Fire and did a shoot. Im having the pics printed by MPix and then Im doing a custom frame on them with 2 4x6 shots and a ford emblem in the middle across the top a 11x14 in the center and then 3 4x6 shot along the bottom.

Here are some of the shots: http://flic.kr/s/aHsjuWJHnv

Gorgeous!

Does it still have the Flat head or a newer plant?

Vegas_Sirk · 06-14-2011, 05:01 PM

Its a Chevy 350 .... I wish is was a Ford 302 or 351, but when he got the car that was the motor already in it. Its "the" motor to put in them for some odd reason. Im a purist so I like ford motors in fords and chevy motors in chevys

Chevy drivetrains, from engine to rear end are the norm in these old Fords. 8/10 have Chevy small blocks underhood. Great car.

Yea it gets a lot of looks, but not near as much as his Factory Five Shelby Cobra. Its funny too because the Duce Coupe is worth more.

Beautiful pictures! My fav of the bunch:

The red paint is so vibrant against the rust/brown of the scenery.
