As the rodding season carved a path to the Syracuse Nationals, Street Rodder and Ford Racing's recognition of street rodders who install a late model Ford engine in a Ford led us to DeVerne Breed of Kirkville, NY, who is our latest recipient. DeVerne's fresh '32 Ford highboy coupe is fitted with a new Ford 302ci crate V-8 linked to an AOD automatic transmission. The team at Powerhouse Hot Rods and Performance in Central Square, NY, get the nod for the build. Starting with a custom Deuce chassis, they added plenty of brilliance with a fully chromed front end, and polished wheels from American Racing. The body from N&N Fiberglass Reproductions was massaged to perfection and coated in vibrant PPG red gloss while an interior by Dan Williams completes the build.
Congratulations to DeVerne who will receive a limited edition jacket and be in the running for the grand prize, which is a brand new Ford crate engine.
