Yes, he did.

Black with black wheels and no whitewalls is attractive to me.

You don't see very many Cabriolets around . . . here is mine with it's old paint and yellowed top:

PS: Yes, I know, the engine is far from stock. LOL!

As I recall Edsel deserves the credit for the design. They are beautiful cars.

the most recent tv version of Bonnie and clyde has loads of shots of the 32 ford, I even think it was yellow! Worth seeing https://www.amazon.com/Bonnie-Clyde-...nnie+and+clyde

Im with the black on black. Yup, two taillights, wrong top material, missing back window until I find the correct late version frame, leather interior and outside mirror, a little too much for a std roadster, but it is a numbers matching car.

I have a lowly 32 Tudor sedan.
If I had the money, I'd also have a coupe & a roadster like Boxcar Tom
Beautiful car

Nothing wrong with two tail lights as long as you don't have a rumble seat. The second tail lamp was a Ford-released dealer installed accessory (it's just the regular RHD tail light).

Right in the middle of the rebuild of my roadster I found a B std roadster for sale in PA. See below before and after pictures. It's the first time I seriously though about selling my coupe. Years later found it again somewhere on the internet. Thank God the new owner appreciates originality.

I will admit to liking 33's the best with 34's a close second but I sure can appreciate the beauty of the 32's !!!!!

Nice stuff folks .

Yeah - you couldn't have given me a 35 when I was young . . . everybody thought it was a super ugly and undesirable car.
