The time-honored tradition of hot rodding began in the late 1930s in Southern California. A contemporary resurgence in the popularity of hot rods has demonstrated that they have moved beyond their humble origins, and become iconic cars cherished by collectors the world over.
This 1932 Chevrolet Hot Rod Roadster has an all-steel body. It is powered by a Chevrolet LT1 V-8 engine with dual carburetors, and features an automatic transmission. Additional visual cues include a hinged windshield for venting, dual mirrors, cowllights, chromed wire wheels, radiator mascot, Lecarra steering wheel, white-faced Classic instruments and rumbleseat for including two family members or friends. This roadster appears to have been lovingly cared for and, as such, strikes an imposing figure. Finished in canary yellow with a black cloth top and a modern gray interior, this “deuce” is sure to turn heads wherever it goes.
