By Design: 1932 Ford Hot Rod
A surreal, iconic archtype..
By definition, every hot rod is unique, configured and constructed to the ideas and ideals of an individual owner. At the same time, hot rods are tightly constrained by a set of not-quite-rigid rules tacitly agreed on by participants. The car featured here is a Platonic ideal of a hot-rodded 1932 Ford roadster. It's not real-not an authentic Southern California car from the immediate post-World War II period when old Ford roadsters were still being used as daily drivers, changing hands for a hundred bucks or so. Rather, this is a surrealistic evocation of all that was considered cool in 1945-54, i.e., before the small-block Chevrolet V-8 changed everything forever.
