This 1932 Ford "High-Boy" is a superb execution of the Southern California original. So named for its body style that sits atop the frame (rather than the channeled Low Boy), High-Boys were a staple of the Bonneville and SoCal dry lakes racing scene that stipulated an unaltered body in height and contour if the competitor wished to strip the fenders, running boards, and bumpers. Hot rodders who visited the salt flats or dry lake beds as spectators or raced on local boulevards wanted to be part of the racing scene and as a result, it became part of the pantheon of tried-and-true hot rod styles.

This particular 1932 Ford Hot Rod "High-Boy" Roadster offered from the collection of Bill and Linda Feldhorn was built by Larry Boughter of Tempe, Arizona. It features an all-steel Brookville Roadster body with deep black paint by Compton Rod & Custom, accented by a single red pinstripe running the length of the body to highlight the decorative contours and forward rake of the Roadster, while additional pinstriping emphasizes the Ford logo and black-painted radiator shell. Its stealth black paint is offset by just the right amount of chrome that adorns its windshield frame, bumpers, suspension, and shock absorbers. Aluminum American Racing Halibrand-style wheels provide a jewel-like adornment to each corner with period-correct widths and offsets.

The interior by Lance Troupe is the ideal blend of race-inspired look, period correctness, and hot rod restraint. Tan leather and oatmeal-colored square-weave carpeting play beautifully with the black-painted dashboard that features engine-turned gauge cluster trim and bright-finished three-spoke banjo steering wheel.

Boughter's build is powered by a GM Performance ZZ4 350 cu-in V8, a turn-key crate engine that features Weber carburetors and produces 335 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque-more than an ample amount of wheel-spinning power for the lightweight build. This power is put through a GM 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission and Currie 9-inch rear end, ensuring both power on demand and the ability to cruise the strip with ease.

Cherished in their impressive collection since 2011, this All-American, yet very California hot rod, features just 1,647 miles since the completion of the build, perhaps the ideal shakedown distance to preserve the exceptional quality of the finishes applied by the craftsmen who created this High-Boy with an unwavering focus on traditional style, modern drivability, and show-quality presentation.
