On the Auction Block: 1933 Ford Roadster

Welcome to another chapter of my "On The Auction Block" Series of entries where i show you some of the cars that stood out at the 2011 Palm Beach County Auction. For this entry were looking at a custom rod that's hot enough to burn your wallet to ashes...


This is a 1933 Ford Roadster completely rodded inside and out. The exterior features shaved components such as emblems, door handles, bumpers and trim, along with custom 17 inch wheels in the front and 20s in the rear, all of them wearing low profile tires. Most noticeable on the car is the PPG black paint job with the true fire flame job on the front.


The interior is also custom with red color everywhere. The flame job also continues to the window sills as well as the dash. A chrome, leather wrapped steering wheel completes the look. The engine is a supercharged GM LS6 crate motor that's also been given the flame treatment

This roadster didn't sell sadly, and honestly I'm not surprised. I would definitely be intimidated to buy a car with a 20,000 dollar paint and flame job, let alone drive it.
