Ford versus Chevy; restomod versus hotrod. Which would you drive?


People have been customizing their cars since the earliest days of the automobile, and everybody has their own tastes from foreign to domestic and from lowriders to jacked-up trucks.

The 1973 film, American Graffiti, immortalized hot rods and cruising culture, and this 1932 Ford five-window coupe is done up to look just like one of the movie's star cars. With its bright yellow paint and shiny chrome accents, this Ford looks amazing, and with the 350 cubic-inch small-block Chevy V8, this is sure to be a strong cruiser, too. This incredible specimen of a five-window Ford is completely spotless, and it's up for sale through Vanguard Motor Sales for $74,900.
