An update on the car in the photo below

" ... the car in the photo is the most desirable make, model and year there is for most hot rodders.
It's a 1932 Ford five window coupe... the first year Ford produced a car with a V-8 engine made with a one piece cast iron engine block.
Before Ford developed the casting process that allowed his factory to make V8 blocks in a one piece casting they were made in three separate pieces requiring a lot of expensive machining which made V8 and V12 engines very expensive to produce.
By eliminating a lot of the machining and the time involved it made the more powerful and desirable V8 equipped Ford cars cheaper to produce and thus available to a much larger market.
The 1932 Ford body was also restyled from it's 1931 and earlier Model "A" predecessor and featured small but significant refinements such as slightly slanted windshield posts, a grill in front of the previously open radiator, and generally more rounded body styling.
Although produced at the height of the depression it sold well and remains today as one of the most admired and sought after early models ever produced by Ford.
Some of us who have always favoured Ford products over others consider some of the 1932 Fords... such as the three and five window coupes... as well as the two dooor sedan and the two door "Victoria" model to be the best looking cars Ford made in that era."
