1932 Ford V8<\/h1>\n
\n

In 1932 Ford released their seminal ‘Deuce’ which was the foundation for the hot-rod industry. This was motivated by Ford first production V8 engine which was available in all the body styles.<\/span><\/p>\n

The V8 model was marketed as a variant of the Model B known as the Model 18, but the V8 name resonated more and became the most widely used name.<\/p>\n

Many body styles were available for the V8 including desirable configurations such as the 3-Window Coupe, 5-Window Coupe, 2-Door Roadster, and 2-Door Cabriolet.<\/p>\n

Available body colors were Ford Medium Maroon, Brewster Green Medium, Tunis Gray, Old Chester Gray, Washington Blue, Black, Brewster Green Medium and Winter Leaf Brown.<\/p>\n
