Built in the '30s. Forgotten in the '50s. Recently unrestored. How a barn find 1933 Ford was resurrected as the Devil's Coupe.

Automotive journalist Chuck Vranas has written hundred of stories about other people's hot rods. Today, he's telling the remarkable story of his own 1933 Ford coupe, a long-lost survivor from the pre-War era, resurrected from a half-century slumber and driven in preserved condition from hot rodding's earliest years .—HRM

 

 

If the Devil drove a hot rod it would have to be as nasty as this 1933 Ford five-window coupe. This is a car with a battle-scarred body that tells its story with an attitude, and with the accent of a snarling hopped-up Flathead V-8 breathing through straight pipes.

Fate that brought this car and owner. As a hot rod photojournalist, I see plenty of wicked hot rods on a regular basis with some of the best stories being unearthed along the way. Typically, by the time I see them, the cars have already changed hands and moved on to their new owners. In the case of this particular coupe, the game changer was a scheduled visit to Dave Simard's legendary East Coast Custom in Leominster, Massachusetts. I was working on a photo assignment, shooting a build book for a roadster destined to compete for America's Most Beautiful Roadster (AMBR). As I pulled up to the shop I came face to face with the '33, parked under an open-air storage area.

How The Devil's Coupe Got To Massachusetts

This was a fresh arrival — still covered with cobwebs after being unearthed and with an obvious story to tell. The first thing I noticed was a tortured 1961 Texas license plate bolted to the front bumper. Simard informed me that he had known about the car for a decade and had been calling the owner in Texas twice a year for the last 10 years to inquired about it. The owner finally agreed to sell the car and it had just been dropped off at the shop the night before.

Dave is one of the foremost experts, collectors, and builders of traditional Ford hot rods in the world today, and I quietly listened as he told the story behind the car. In front of my eyes was a truly rare survivor car. The rust-free 1933 Ford five-window V8 business coupe had been a pre-War (World War II) hot rod, then transitioned into a '50s rod before being put to sleep for 52 years.

Unmistakable Omens and Irresistible Distress

When Dave told me that the coupe was last registered in 1959, a light seemed to suddenly hovered over the car. That's the year that I was born! Maybe this was fate bringing me closer to the car. Lifting the hood revealed the Flathead V8 parked between the framerails. A check of the heads proved it to be a 59AB; again, the '59 reference was in place! Opening the rock-solid driver's door revealed haunting details like weathered chrome garnish moldings, a flaking red painted dash filled with mismatched accessory gauges, a cracked 1940 Ford steering wheel, and a thrashed seat topped with a vintage Bolta-Quilt seat cover in a ghastly green plaid and accenting dirty-green door cards. This was indeed a true pre-War survivor.

The fact that the car still wore all of its factory sheetmetal, was fully-fendered with its original bumpers, and was unchopped was a miracle. Everywhere you looked, it was well-worn and tattered in all the right places, giving it a personality that few could understand.

The Deal Is Struck

Vintage cars tell stories and this coupe was no different. Its stories came out in the areas where old metal-to-metal bodywork had been started, and in the remnants of a minor front collision where the passenger-side fender had been hammered out and gas-welded, leaving scars that only a mother could love on a payday The trunk and rain drains were still unbelievably solid, making me wonder if the car had ever run moonshine back in the day, through dark streets with the law on its tail. One fateful question lingered on my brain: was it for sale or had it moved on to new owners already?

Once and a while things go your way and this happened to be one of those rare days. Dave said that the car — one of the cleanest 1933 Fords he had ever seen — was indeed for sale, having just arrived the night before. Knowing that the car would be gone in a flash if I waited, I made two phone calls to explain the car's story and the mystical appearance of the "59s." The first call was to my wife Kim, who knows her hot rods and understands the rarity of a pre-War survivor. The second was to my friend, hot rodder and artist Jeff Norwell. After seeing my cell phone photos, they both agreed that this required immediate action or a rare car would slip through my hands and I would regret it forever. A confident handshake secured the deal.

Preserving Hot Rod History

Now was the time to sit back and study its future. When Jeff saw the car for the first time, he told me that it was a piece of hot rod history and there was a reason it had been preserved in its current state. Don't act on impulse to strip it down, chop it, alter it, or change its personality in any way, he advised. Study the car for a couple years and it will tell you what it needs. Kim and I have been studying it ever since. Preserving its legacy is something we take seriously. When a change is made, it's made with respect.

At Xtreme Restorations in Satersville, Rhode Island, it took 20 minutes with a bottle of fuel and spark to bring the coupe back to life. And it came back with plenty of attitude, its war-torn headers and straight pipes belching fire and brimstone and gasping for air after a long sleep. This was no average old man's car — it's got a nasty Flathead and had plenty of secrets to reveal as we dug deeper into its past. During the following four years we would rebuild its systems, rewire the entire car with cloth wiring in the original 6-volt style, and freshen-up the Flathead, transmission, brakes, and steering — with special thanks to East Coast Custom, Hot Rod Services, and Xtreme Restorations. They say you always add a little special voodoo to a project to make it your own and this is where the stance was studied to dial in just the right rake — not too much, not too little, wanting to maintain the pre-War look. I think we got it just right, adding just enough edge to the car's character, topped off with a set of vintage caps from Neil Candy at Candy's Hot Rods Supply. The Devil's license plate was the finishing touch, solidifying the car's personality and raising a few eyebrows whenever it goes down the road or parks at the local cruise night.

What Next?

I was able to locate a set of N.O.S. vintage Bolta-Quilt seat covers, but it's still not the time to freshen things up inside. Grasping the weathered '40 Ford steering wheel and feeling all those cracks and blistered bits under my palms brings it all full circle whenever I hit the starter, summoning the unmuffled Flathead V8 to life. There may be more to be done, but for now the Devil's Coupe is back raising hell on the highways and back roads like it was meant to be.

1933 Ford Roadster Built in 1950 and Unrestored to Perfection

Intentionally hidden for decades, this historic and preserved East Coast hot rod was lost until David Simard found it.

The enduring popularity and surprising prevalence of so-called barn find cars makes us confident that there will be plenty of raw material for great hot rod projects for years to come. There's a rod shop about an hour west of Boston called East Coast Custom where David Simard and his team build hot rods for customers. The Leominster, Massachusetts, shop also features a spectacular barnful of David's own iron, traditional prewar Fords mostly, collected over the past several years and in various stages of progress.

We've talked about David's Simard East Coast Customs before. Just a few weeks ago, we profiled a 1933 Ford five-window coupe called The Devil's Coupe, a surviving '30s-era hot rod that had been out of commission for more than 50 years before being revived and put back on the street in perfect period unrestored condition.

If The Devil's Coupe had a brother, it'd be this channeled 1933 roadster—another perfectly preserved piece of hot rod history—with a pedigree just as impressive and a personality just as wicked as the coupe.

"In 1975, a fellow member of the Boston Area Roadster Club introduced me to Bill Schultz," David started the story. "Bill owned Country Club Auto Body in Norton, Massachusetts. He had numerous old Fords around his small one-man shop. Sitting outside was the 1934 three-window coupe, which he'd raced on the oval tracks in the area back in the '50s. But inside, buried under numerous auto parts, was the channeled '34 Ford roadster that he built in 1950 and parked in 1962. Bill intentionally buried the car in the corner to avoid everyone inquiring about it.

"Bill purchased the roadster in 1948 as a complete original car (15 years old at the time). When he channeled it in 1950, he carefully removed the original floor. He cut the frame at the rear crossmember, allowing him to save the original rear section of the truck floor. The floor subrails were bolted to the bottom of the framerails. The original floor was retained and bolted to the top of the frame. Bill's method retained the strength of the body and the door alignment. "

Bill swapped the '33 grille with a Deuce grille and added a cut-down 1946 Ford front bumper, plus a custom roll pan in the rear. The door handles are stock 1934 hardware. The fenders and running boards were replaced with bobbed motorcycle-style fenders, a style that has become associated with East Coast traditional hot rods. He painted the roadster with black lacquer and added a full folding top and side curtains.

Channeled bodies, unchopped tops on coupes, and custom bobbed fenders or bike fenders are three prominent elements of the East Coast style of traditional hot rods associated with New England. Removing the fenders and running boards started out as a practical weight-reducing move on the early roadsters racing on the dry lakes of Southern California. The fenderless style caught on all over but was out of compliance with the fender laws in the rainy eastern states. Bobbed fenders were the compromise solution.

The front suspension was built using a 1937 tube axle and springs, as well as Bill's crafted hairpin radius rods, customized with his initials in the bars. All the components were chrome plated. The 1946 rearend runs 4.11 gears. Brakes are 1946 Ford in the front and 1940 in back. Those 5.90-15 whitewall tires roll on 1937 thru 1940 Wide 5 style wheels with mid-50s Ford Fairlane covers. Bill installed a full race Flathead engine with a column-shifted 1939 Ford transmission. In 1959, the Flattie was replaced with '58 Ford 312 Y-block, with a single four-barrel carb. Custom zoomie headers point exhaust directly past the driver's ears or via cutouts, to the rear via the dual-pipe setup.

On the inside, the cut-down original bench is still covered in the red-and-white vinyl Bill used to upholster it decades ago. His custom aluminum dash houses original Stewart-Warner Wings gauges.

Bill drove the roadster until 1962, when he parked it inside his body shop. Despite his best effort to keep the car out of sight and to avoid inquiries, the historic hot rod caught David's attention right away. "I would check in with Bill every year to discuss buying the car. The answer was always the same: 'I'm going to get it on the road again. '" It took years of patience and persistence, but eventually Bill agreed to sell the roadster.

David says the years of indoor storage protected the roadster from rust and that Bill's skill as a bodyman is the reason the doors open and close with perfect alignment after almost 90 years. He has numerous projects in the works in his personal barn—not to mention customer cars. For now, the roadster remains virtually unchanged from when he bought it, but David, like Bill, is determined to get it on the road again, maybe with the Flathead that powered it before. One thing is certain: There will be no cosmetic makeover. David Simard's preserved 1933 Ford roadster has aged beautifully and will be preserved that way.

1962 Lincoln Continental MOST DESIRED "Triple Black" suicide convertible

 

1962 Lincoln Continental

I never thought I would sell this car, looked at so many Lincoln to find the nicest out there and this is what I picked. It has the most sought after dash and the wood grain inlays on the dash and door panels. It has a flawless black paint and not signs of rust or rust repairs anywhere on the car. The doors and the door bottoms are perfect and the area behind rear wheel is perfect and no signs of rust or repairs, same goes for the floor and trunk floor. I has a new black interior and new black carpet. It's a true California car. It needs the new hydraulic hoses and a new canvas top. I have put it of for now and just enjoyed the car with the top down since I did not find any needs for a top here in CA. Hence the price is less what a fully restored car would run you and you have some room to buy the car and fix it at a later time or just drive it as is as I have done.....
Starts right up and shifts smooth and nice. The engine has probably been rebuilt some time ago cause it runs strong and tight better than any other Lincoln I test drove before I decided to buy this one.

Located in San Jose CA 95124. Come take a look if your close by or please feel free to email or text me if you would like additional info. Or if you like to see a video of the car etc.

I can assist the new buyer with quoting and coordinating transportation after the auction. I have been using 1Flat-Rate Transportation company many times on eBay and they do a good job. Thank you for your interest! And happy Bidding

• Lincoln Continental Four-Door Sedan, model year 1962, version for North America U.S.
• 4-door sedan body type.
• RWD (rear- wheel drive), automatic 3-speed gearbox.
• petrol (gasoline) engine with displacement: 7044 cm3 / 429.9 cui, advertised power: 223.5 kW / 300 hp / 304 PS ( SAE gross ), torque: 631 Nm / 465 lb-ft.

Fun Facts :

Lincoln's beautiful 1961 styling was a revelation to the industry, and by 1962 the first results of shocked stylists at other companies were being seen. In a dramatic move, Imperial chopped off its tail fins completely, perching its trade mark slim, circular tail light assemblies atop the rear fenders. The result was an Imperial that looked longer and much sleeker than before. Cadillac was stuck with its 1961 styling, but "squared up" its '62 design by eliminating the oval rear bumper ends and replacing them with rectangular ones. The round front parking and turn signal lights also got the rectangular treatment. The most substantial evidence that Cadillac was paying attention—and responding to Lincoln's design—was with the 1963 models, which were very different from what had come before from Cadillac. Cadillac worked in two year styling cycles, and Lincoln's influence on American luxury car design would remain for much of the sixties.

The 1964 Imperial would be completely new, and would flatter the Lincoln design considerably with very sleek, clean lines that the Imperial wore very well. The relationship between the Lincoln and Imperial designs at this point was quite clear: the man largely responsible for the beautiful Lincoln design in 1961 had left Ford and was now working for Chrysler. The '64 Imperial was his first opportunity to make his mark on that legendary automobile. The man's name? Elwood Engel.

Lincoln's sales improved modestly in 1962, with a production increase of 5,897 cars. This still fell far short of what Cadillac was selling, but Cadillac at this point had a history of styling marks that identified the cars as Cadillacs, and Lincoln was at this point in its fifth completely new design in a ten year period, none of which really defined what the Lincoln look was until the 1961 models. It would take some time for the public to see that this was indeed a design that Lincoln would stay faithful to. Also, quality control issues had plagued the previous 1958-1960 models, and that gave the Lincoln brand a somewhat tarnished reputation, although the 1961 models did much to repair that. Actually, the 1960 models had addressed most of the initial problems, but the styling wasn't loved by many, so some potential 1960 Lincoln customers didn't even consider them.

1962 Lincoln Continental

Not too much had changed with the '62 Continental except for the removal of the front bumper guards and a few pounds and inches here and there in addition to being slightly lower than the previous year. The Lincoln Continental was the only 4-door convertible offered on the American market. Available again in 1962 was the suicide doors that opened to the center and hinged to the body instead of the center pillar. Plus a light on the instrument panel blinks a warning if the rear doors are not fully closed when the ignition is on. The entire body of the 4-door sedan is welded into a single unit and protected by four coats of baked enamel. Inside, a combination of leather and vinyl fabric along with walnut paneling contribute to the classic elegance of the Lincoln Continental. Standard features on the Continental included a 430 cid V8 engine, automatic transmission, power windows, power brakes, and power steering.
