    I did a short search and didn't find anything so if this has been done before I apologize. But what is your favorite body style of 32' Ford coupe? I seem to favor the five window.

    Something about a 5W that is hard to beat -- they just have the hot rod look I prefer.

    5 window as a 60s style drag car. 3 window as a 50s hot rod street car, and Vicky as a stocker. I love roadsters but they have been done into the ground.

    Both!
    Depending on the desired result - Badass five window, or a bit more refined three window.

    What is the reason for this thread?
    We have a 3w so are biased.
    Having a choice we would have a stable of every body style.

    A black five window with no chop does it for me.

    For the last 38 years I have thought that the 5 window 1932 Ford was the quintessential car.
    But lately I've been dreaming of 3 windows.........

    I have a 3w but I'm always looking at 5w's also, I might stumble into the right one someday and add it to the fleet.

  17. I like the looks of an original 3 window better, but there are just so many of those plastic fantastic chopped top cookie cutter 3 windows everywhere that they all look the same and are more prevalent than Hondas so I am glad mine is a 5 window. I have come to appreciate it more over time.

    I was so sure you would post a picture



    Of a 5W, or 7W.

    I like 3W. I love 5W!! ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1436461334.168714.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1436461385.489139.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1436461802.918999.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1436461829.358358.jpg

    I like the 5 window (duh!) but I once asked a major 'glass body rep why so many 3 windows were reproduced. He said it was because the doors were bigger than the 5 windows and to many rodders were too fat to get into a 5 window coupe. :)
