This hot rod with it's live axle / coil over rear --- and dropped straight axle front rides way better than the '32 does with it's Kugel IFS/IRS suspension.

It's longer wheelbase... and it's heavier... and it was built by a guy (Brizio Street Rods) that understands what it takes to make 'em real drivable. Spring rates - shocks etc.

This body is also way heavier than the Wescott bodied '32 and that can't hurt either... add an automatic that's heavier than a 5 speed...

Basically this hot rod is a Rolls Royce in the way the doors and trunk close and open... it's pretty amazing to me! There's zero rattles...
