Ford should build a Deuce May 03, 2007, 07:47:32 AM Kind of like the Prowler was intended, but with the lines of the '32 Ford. The reason I say this is this is the 75th Anni. of the Deuce Coupe, and Ford is throwing a big party. Not the coupes, just the roaster. Build 750 on a stripped Mustang chassis with half the motor on display out the side, if not a set of headers visible for just a moment.This is a nostalgic icon of a car that deserves its moment in the retro sunshine. After Ford pulls out of this retro phase, there will be a set of modern classics made in a ten year period that will be an era of its own in 30years. (I do think the retro era will be well remembered when it's long gone)http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=120618. Quote Selected

As much as I like the motors, try something different already.Anyway, I didn't even look at the motor. I picked that one because it was one of the rare decent looking pics I could find with a hood on one. Quote Selected
