Now you can start with a fresh 32 five window body

For hot rodders, no prewar platform is more sought-after than the 'Deuce Coupe'�Ford's two-door 1932 5-Window phenomenon. Trouble is, after 82 years, getting your mitts on one (much less an example worth building around) can be challenging even for the avid scrapyard dog. Fortuitously, the fine folks from Dearborn have announced that the hotrod icon is officially returning: New 1932 Ford 5-Window Coupe body shells will now be available through the Blue Oval's Component Sales arm.

According to Ford, these '32 Coupe reproductions are exclusively licensed to United Pacific Industries, which rolled out a flawless 5-Window replica at SEMA 2013. Each shell is stamped from virgin metal, then welded and assembled using modern manufacturing techniques. This, along with supplementary rustproofing, keeps the new Deuces from warping and wearing as the decades roll past�ideal for builders, though we do love a good 5-Window rat rod. Each part comes with an official Blue Oval tag.

Ford doesn't have its own prices for the '32 5-Window body up yet, but you can expect to pay around $20,000 for a steel United Pacific Industries shell. Of course, you'll still need a decent frame to build off of, plus a 327-cid small-block should you want to relive all those John Milner American Graffiti fantasies.

Not bad, although I personally liked 23 T buckets better...

They came out with the '40 Ford last year. pretty Cool

Nice, but I'd rather have a 3 window.

pretty cool hope it's the 302 based 327 and not the chevy.Personally love 327 chevy but can't stand when someone builds a ford then throws a chevy or mopar power in it

There is also Dynacorn.com for chevelle and camaro bodies.

I agree about the chevy power in a Ford. However, about 45 years ago, I put together a 32,all metal, 5-window that used a 394 Olds tri power setup. With the old 4-speed Hydramatic, it was one fast car. Olds motors and early Fords just seemed to go together. Things would be different today had I the chance to do it over. That 20k for a new 5 window doesn't seem to far off base.

Nothing says CLASSIC MUSCLE better than an open engine bay with a 392 Hemi ...LOL
