32 Ford 3-Window Coupe

Built from a custom-built steel body fabricated by the noted Marcel deLay & Sons of Corona, California, this ’32 Ford 3-Window Coupe is an outstanding example of the hot rodder’s art form. Unlike so many of the street rods on today’s roads and show fields today, the body is a true custom build, with a 2004-dated letter on file from Marcel deLay accompanying the sale of this Deuce, confirming “…Marcel & Sons fabricated the body for the 1932 Ford 3-Window Coupe built by California Street Rods for Gary Gillette, the then owner of the car in 1989. The body was a one-off creation built specifically for Gillette.” A detailed appraisal report further documents that the all-steel body of this car is the only coupe built by master fabricator Marcel deLay.
Featuring a hand-built, all-steel body – the only coupe ever created by master fabricator Marcel deLay of Corona, California – this ’32 Ford 3-Window Coupe was built by California Street Rods in 1989 and clearly with no expense spared. Blending pure “hot rod” attitude with show-quality construction, components, and modern tech, it is now offered from long-term ownership and features a high-performance small-block with Weber carburetors, all-independent suspension, 4-wheel discs, and a luxurious all-leather interior with A/C and CD stereo.
