1932 Ford Roadster Great 8 Finalist

Harry Willett of Orland Park, Illinois is carrying the traditional hot rod entrant banner with his 1932 Ford highboy roadster. He designed and built this highboy in a sports car influenced theme, something we are seeing more of in the hobby. Aside from the many and highly visual sheetmetal mods the powertrain is something to behold, and not easily missed. A 600 hp Viper V10 with 6-speed trans provides all of the loud pedal performance any hot rodder could want. It is reported that this roadster will approach 200 mph, run 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds and cruise at 65 mph at a heart resting 1200 rpm. Everything a about this hot rod is handmade.
