400hp Hemi-Powered '31 Ford Highboy Roadster

This '31 Ford Highboy Roadster, built by Sergio Shifman, features a 341ci DeSoto Hemi engine producing about 400 horsepower. The engine is equipped with six Stromberg carburetors connected to a Holley EFI setup for enhanced drivability. The car sits on a custom '32 Ford frame and chassis from Pinkee's Rod Shop, providing a striking low stance. It includes a TH350 automatic transmission and a Ford 9-inch rear end. The roadster’s exterior maintains a traditional look with an all-steel body, wishbone front suspension, and Lincoln drum brakes. Inside, custom upholstery and Stewart Warner gauges complete the classic aesthetic.
