1932 Five window coupe...Deluxe?

[34pickup]

Did the 32 5window coupe come with a Deluxe version with stuff like cowl lights, burl wood dash, or sidemounts? Or was the 3 window the only Deluxe coupe in 32?

 

[DavidG]

No such animal. There was only one '32 deluxe coupe and it did not have five windows and a windshield.

1932 Ford Coupes - from the Original Sales Brochure

 

[BoxCar Tom]

Ford offered the 3W coupe with either a trunk or rumble seat, 5W coupe same option? And does the same apply to DeLuxe and standard roadsters?

 

[DavidG]

There were only three '32 body types which were equipped with rumble seats as standard equipment, namely the cabriolet, the deluxe roadster, and the sport coupe. The rumble seat was optional at extra cost in a deluxe coupe, standard coupe, and standard roadster.


The above applies to North American production.

All cowl lights on 5-windows were dealer installed or later?

 

[DavidG]

Dealer installed, later, or required by local lighting regulations (some European and South American countries) The last reason explains the existence of original cowl lamps with black-painted housings and brackets (arms) used on commercial vehicles and big trucks.
