Few vehicles in history have had as great an impact on the American culture as the 1932 Ford. Trumpeted at its launch as “a revolutionary automobile,” the ‘Deuce,’ which originally cost $500 has been modified, raced, cruised and revised over the past 75 years. Today, the legendary ‘Deuce’ – of Little Deuce Coupe fame – is indisputably the most sought out vehicle by American restorers and hot-rodders alike. Today, restored and high-end versions of the ’32 can cost buyers well into six figures.
