From the original question , I agree with cwpasadena, the '32 Ford was a major advance from the Model A. I know someone with about 6 '32's, but have only been in his B4 roadster. Superior chassis, longer wheelbase , automatic adjusting shocks etc gave a better ride. The B4 had more pep than an A with automatic spark plus petrol pump & syncro gearbox etc. Although I think the 1930 styling was beautiful for a cheap car, most would agree that styling for 1932 was outstanding ; 75 years of hot rodding would agree. The V8 engine was a great advance for the auto industry, until Henry perfected en bloc casting for mass production, V8's only existed in expensive , mostly hand built cars. This took him ahead of the competition, but other makes, like Chrysler were also very well engineered cars, but better than the cheaper GM cars in my opinion.
