This car was built to be driven hard. It features an original Henry Ford Steel body that was chopped 5.5 inches and had the windshield laid back for a more aggressive appearance.
The body was place on a heavily modified 1932 Ford chassis featuring full torsion bar suspension on the front and rear. This offers adjustability and an improved ride while retaining traditional styling. The front of the chassis has been bobbed and pinched. It features an ultra-rare Ford V8/60 axle, 1940 ford brakes and 1934 Ford shocks.
The drivetrain consists of a 401 Buick Nailhead engine with an Offy dual quad intake and Edelbrock carbs. It has and big Iskenderian cam and is probably the best sounding Nailhead you will ever hear. The transmission is a World-class T5 5-speed manual with a hydraulic clutch. The rear end is an original aluminum Halibrand Champ quick-change with magnesium bells.
