About this vehicle

This original laser straight 1932 steel Ford Roadster was a hot rod in the 1950s in Ohio. A well-known car builder, Paul Beck, rebuilt the car in 1992. It won the Wally Parks award at the 40th NHRA Nationals in Indianapolis the year it was debuted. This car was built to be period perfect down to nuts and bolts and was used as a tow car for many years at the Bonneville Salt Flats where Paul raced his coupe.
