History:: This is a deceased estate sale, we have been asked to find a buyer for the late darryl Kuhnemanns 1932 Ford coupe. darryl was trying to get this car finished before he passed away in June, so let me explain...The coupe is not finished, however the majority of the work is already done. It will still require engine work, and some minor driveline work, and no doubt, other finishing off areas, but as you can see by the photos, it was close to completion.
We have no idea of the actual build cost, but some items are known, so with his wifes help, the best we can do is give a rough estimate based on the figures below....
we know the body prep and paint cost him .....$14,000,
plus there would be glass/felts etc., ......$1,200
Interior::All new, was only finished in August, other bits, steering wheel etc..... $8,000
CHASSIS::The chassis, all new, work, labour etc. ........$4,000
The Flathead, needs a rebuild, has twin carbs, new dissy, water pumps etc........... $2000
The gearbox is an imported US T5, has the top mount shifter, also new clutch etc. .........$2000
New tailshaft .............$450
New wiring............ $1000
Rear end is a modified early Ford with a Winters quickchange........ $3000
Front end is a regular dropped I beam, has Buick brake drums, all new brakes/cylinders etc. $3000
New Wheels/trims/caps and tyres .......$2000
Walker radiator/gauges/lights/grille/hood/exhaust, and probably more we have missed .......$5,000
As you can see and understand, all these parts, and all the labour, adds up to $75,000 plus
