Bob, I have had my ’32 roadster since 1969 and kept a pretty good eye on the prices. I don’t even know where to start to put a price on your car. I am sure this is what has kept other people from posting. It looks good and would probably be a fun car to drive, but what is it worth??? You might also post this question on HAMB (http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/). The originality of the driveline will have a major impact on the value. You should contact a local chapter of the Early Ford V8 Club and have some one that knows ‘32’s look at it. You should also post your general location in your profile so someone close might volunteer to stop by and give their opinion (but be careful of who you invite to your house). Charlie Stephens

Bob, you do not need to start a new topic for each photo, you can just click on "REPLY" and post your photo.

Bob, since your car has a glass body and fenders it is difficult to place a price on the car. Some glass bodies are better than others, so that has an effect on the value. Do you know who made the body and fenders? Is the frame original or reproduction? Is the car titled as a 1932 Ford roadster? The motor is obviously not an original '32 motor. It appears to be a later motor up through 1936. How long ago was it built? Do you know what it cost to build it at the time? As you can see there needs to be more facts about the car.

Maybe it is just my imagination but do I see the bolt heads and water pump block off plate indicating a 1937-38 21 stud engine? Charlie Stephens

Thanks guys for taking a look and sharing your opinions. Sorry about opening multiple threads. My Dad bought the car sometime in the early 2000's. After either restoring or buying nicely restored original cars including a 29 Pick-up, 30 Coupe, 34 Cabriolet,36-5 Window & 40- 5 Window hot-rod this buy was hard to fathom to say the least. No idea where any of the parts came from or who built the '32' or for how much. All I see that seems 32 from the books are the heads stamped RH and LH and the block drains. It is titled as a 1932 Ford 2D with a vin of 1811318 as you can see in the stamp on the trans which hardly looks original. Let's say none of it's original 32, do you think as is a fair asking price is 10,000-20,000, 20,000+? I have no idea what to initially ask and want to take it to the Fairplex this weekend for what is hopefully a very large car show and a very empty car trailer on the way home! Very thankful for any and all advice! Bob
