Don Lowe's 1932 Ford
1932 Ford Roadster originally owned and built by Don Lowe of Fresno, California in 1951.
The car was later sold to Buddy Pepp of Beverly Hills, California.
In 2021 the car was owned by Bill Warner of Jacksonville. Bill first saw the car, and met Buddy, at the LA Roadster Show over 20 years ago. "I was drawn to the car as if it was a flesh magnet," Bill told Sondre Kvipt of Kustomrama in March of 2021. "I could not take my eyes off of it. The stance, the color, the subtle nature of the car just blew me away." Bill introduced himself. He and Buddy became good friends, and Bill told him to give him a call if he ever decided to sell the car. "He did and I went to the mat. I think it is one of the most beautiful ’32 HiBoys ever."
In 2021 the roadster ran a Flathead Mercury engine with a Eddie Meyer dual carb set up.
