Saw the car in the pictures today in the Best Buy parking lot in Conroe, TX. Didn't get a chance to speak with the owner so I don't know anything about its history. It sure was a nice looking old Ford.

If I owned that, it certainly would NOT be parked in any brick and mortar parking lot! At least not without me and my Henry sitting beside it. :D
Nice car!

Looks like he has a Thompson in the back window.

That should work pretty well. ;)

Yep - pretty nice.

I had a 31 Deluxe coupe with a roll down rear window.

The 'Deuce' Coupe designation was attributed to the '32 Ford - due to the '2' in the year.

Was the 32 different that the 30 or 31?

Dramatically.

Complete design change and the first V-8.
