Ive always had a serious love of 32 Fords. They are by far the most popular Hot Rod in the USA and this is episode 3 of my love of a 1932 Ford Pickup.

I have a black chopped 32 Fordor sedan that was purchased a couple of years ago, to which I did minor changes to the dash and spruced up the interior. I always wanted a Roadster as well as a Pickup of that particular year, as I just love the boxy, straight-up grill and super smooth look of this quintessential model.

A Humble Beginning
Simon's journey with the Mighty Boy began with a simple goal: to build a $20,000 skid car. However, what started as a modest project soon evolved into something extraordinary. Simon's sense of humor shines through as he describes his build as "completely built at home by someone with no idea and is real dardy-like."

THE APPEAL

In 1939, Ford chief designer E.T.Bob Gregorie gave the all-new1940 Chevy Pickup trucks prow frontstyling of the 1939-1940 passenger cars. Creating in the eyes ofmany die-hard Ford fans,the mostbeautiful pre-war Pickup evermade. Only surpassed in my eyes, by the 1955 F100. This model is a greatcandidate for modification. Whether its a Billet queen or a Rat Rod, everything looksperfect on this stately lady.

Owners:  Francois Schuster. Shop name:  Thundersport

When it comes to building cars, Francois Schuster is no rookie. Over the years, he has built many amazing cars, including the 1932 Ford Coupe and the 1956 Chevy Bel Air. As part of Thundersport, Francois decided to try his hand at something different. He wanted to put an LS motor into something a bit more modern. But with the cost of Corvettes and new American cars in South Africa, he decided to go for something completely different, namely a 2005 Nissan Z350.
