Mon Dieu.....That coupe is nothing short of "Utter Perfection"! Why do those front WHEELS look so 'shallow' (and I really LIKE the look)? Are those the 3-1/2" 1940, V8-60 wheels that are so elusive? And do you reckon that those hub caps are "one-offs"? DD Last edited by V8COOPMAN; 03-26-2021 at 01:41 PM. |

DD ,I think you're right about those wheels. I'd put my French 97's and Marchal head lights on it but need to sell the Chateau to buy it

Here is a pic of the other side.Slightly different bowl shape. All 97 parts interchange.Quite rare-only came across 3 in the last 5 yrs. They were on the 24 studs in the Vendome and Monte Carlo - mid 1950's.The other pic is of the bucket side of the Marchal's. Those Marchals were required on the Ford's from 1930 and in '32 used on the standards.'32 dlx were even more elaborate.

I got to meet Gene some years ago and see his collection and I was blown away. He has been collecting '32's since he was a kid. He was kind enough to let me sit in several of his cars and it is something I will never forget.

![]() Bill, you were a very lucky man to see these cars in the flesh. What a fabulous collection of 1932 Fords. |

I really like how the stock 32s are not "dolled up" with bright wheel colors and white wall tires. I skipped over the hot rods, not really rare or special these days.

Like the rest of you......those 32's will make any car nut drool!
And like most of us, my champagne tastes with a beer pocketbook, relegate me to Model A's! ![]() BTW, DavidG has a very nice collection of 32's. |

The few 1932 experts I know believe this auction will set the standard for now on the value of 1932 Fords . One even told me he expects to see several $100,000 dollar sales . Up in value or down , time will tell . What are your predictions ?

Down. I can’t sell anything now. I gave away a extremely nice 5W. I put original parts up for sale and absolutely no interest.

You better have deep pockets if you go to that Auctions. I would like to go but I can't take care of what I have now. That B 400 I would like to have but I know that there no chance of me buying it. I am 81 and the Doctors are talking about taking my driver license. I think I am going to look for another doctor or quit seeing them. I guess I am just a dreamer.

Will the conservatively modified cars bring a higher price or the exact restorations ? This is going to be a great auction for the Duece world followers !
