ACME's "Tom's Garage" '32 Ford five window
We thought we'd share these photos of the pre-production piece that Mat and the ACME boys sent along. As you can see, the model's got more of that classic old rod's DNA, done with a new upper body and a classic scalloped paint job atop smoked-out Hallys and wide whites. The black and red scheme looks perfect (how do these guys keep coming up with these killer custom paint jobs?), as does the low-key level of chrome and the tamped-on pinstriping. Under the hood is the stalwart flathead Ford with a pair of Stromberg 97s; go back for a carpeted cabin with all the right stuff from dash to back wall, and a carpeted trunk below a deck lid wearing "TOMS 32″ plates.
From the in-the-weeds nose to the dual exhausts poking out under the rear, this one's got "classic rod" written all over it, and it's reason enough to join the "Tom's Garage" premium club at ACME.
