A deuce coupe (deuce indicating the year 2 in 1932) is a 1932 Ford coupe.
The Model 18 coupe with its more powerful V8 engine was more popular than the four-cylinder Model B coupe.
In the 1940s, the Model 1B was plentiful and cheap enough for young men to buy, becoming the basis for an ideal hot rod.
Customizers would strip surplus weight off and hop up the engine for power - a metaphor drawing from one's behavior becoming more raucous when hopped up on beer.
These hot rods came in two body styles, the more common 5-window and the rarer suicide door 3-window.
The iconic stature of the 1932-vintage Ford in hot rodding inspired The Beach Boys to write their hit 1963 song Little Deuce Coupe, which also was the name of the album it appeared on.
The deuce coupe was also featured prominently in the 1973 hit film American Graffiti.
The car is also famously referenced in the 1973 Bruce Springsteen song, Blinded by the Light, made popular by Manfred Mann's Earth Band in 1977.
Typical of builds from before World War Two were '35 Ford wire-spoke wheels.
Immediately postwar, most hot rods changed from mechanical to hydraulic (juice) brakes and from bulb to sealed-beam headlights.
The gow job morphed into the hot rod in the early to middle 1950s.
The mid-1950s and early 1960s custom deuce was typically fenderless and steeply chopped, and almost all Ford (or Mercury, with the 239 cu in (3,920 cc) flathead, introduced in 1939).
A Halibrand quick-change rearend was also typical, and an Edelbrock intake manifold or Harman and Collins ignition magneto would not be uncommon.
Reproduction spindles, brake drums, and backing based on the 1937s remain available today.
Aftermarket flatty (flathead) cylinder heads were available from Barney Navarro, Vic Edelbrock, and Offenhauser.
The first intake manifold Edelbrock sold was a slingshot design for the flathead V8.
Front suspension hairpins were adapted from sprint cars, such as the Kurtis Krafts.
The first Jimmy supercharger on a V8 may have been by Navarro in 1950 Whilst Fusion Motor Company make a sincere effort to supply information that is accurate and complete, we are aware that errors and omissions may occur.
