    Tres all the way, with a hemi, 5 speed and Gammel look.
    I'd trade it for a 33-3 Simard style if that's possible too.

    Three window. I like the style of it better -- much "cleaner" than the five window.

    My favorite '32 is a 5W.

    The Don Williams Coupe.

    Mine will not be a clone of it, but I hope to capture some of its stance & profile...

    Greetings! Neither, but I would take a French '32 Ford Sedan, they have suicide doors just like the three-window.

    5 window chopped. with or without fenders I think the proportions are better with less of a chop. Let me know when you will be by to drop it off.

    WHY IS THIS NOT A POLL?!?!

    Five for me
     
  10. Yes, but they all have a back window as well. So to be clear, someone decided to count some of the windows, just not all of them. We need to track this guy down - and kick his ass, for making us follow in his stupid footprints. I am somewhat kidding about this, but if you really think about it, it makes no sense at all.

    Given they're both beautiful, I'm 6'5", so a 5 window.

    i think only on the HAMB a 5 window would out vote a 3!

    Ill take the 3 window.
     
  18. As the owner of a 5W Model A coupe i would definately say .. 3 (yes three) window, simply because they look better.

    deuce roadster, thanks! I've been around old cars for twenty-five years but just never had any interaction with '32 folks and never knew who to ask about the differences.

    3 window looks cool, 5 window has better driver visibility
     
  27. 3 windows are very rare in Argentina and model B 1932 are more, I like for that reason, but the 5W are still good
