Does anyone know where I can get a picture of a '32 Ford Coupe? Especially the grille. I have to reproduce it for the front of a race car and I can't find a picture for reference. I found some toys on the net but they are not a very good image to go by.

Thanks

Robert,

I just painted one of these on a carved sign, Unfortunately I returned all the reference photos that I was given when the sign was picked up.

The best I can do is post the painted car, I hope this helps.

I'm not sure is this one is original or modified but this is the grille I was supplied.

Hey Rob,
I found this link to lots of pics of '32 Ford Coupe's. The pics load slowly but I think you might find what you are looking for here. Pic 14 has a head on shot of the grill on a car in the background. 9 has two good closeups.

The rock band ZZ top has a 32 Ford Coupe.
There are at least 1 of their albums with pictures of the car on them.
I think Eliminator is one of the albums with a drawing of the car on it.

I will try to locate the CD and post a pic of the cover if you like.

I wish I had the real deal to take a picture of and send ya....but I dont..
Man what a bummer...

see ya.

Zigman, I hate to be a pest, but the ZZ Top car is actually a '34 Ford which has a distictively different grille. Sorry, but if Rob needs a '32 grille, the '34 may not do.

Just trying to help. Rob, check your e-mail.

Thanks, everyone that has tried to help me I am getting lots of ideas here for reference material.
the Carnut web site has a lot of '32 Ford coupes on it I think I will be able to find one I can use there.

Thanks again for all of your help.
