1932 Ford Model 18 Highboy Roadster ('Deuce')

Sold the roadster to Pete Henderson; no further details about his tenure are given.

Purchased the car at age 18 and made it famous in the San Fernando Valley; the car carried a Russetta timing tag from a 120.9-mph dry lake run during his ownership.

Monrovia, California resident who held the car for roughly one year before passing it on.

Future Indianapolis 500 driver who raced the roadster at Los Angeles-area circle tracks; Jack McGrath also drove it during this period.

Replaced the original flathead engine with a 265 Chevy V-8 and had the car appear in several low-budget films before being drafted.

Acquired the car when Guldahl was called up for military service; no details on his tenure's end are given.

Confirmed the car's identity by contacting Pete Henderson, then undertook a full restoration beginning in 1995 with his son Mike; brought the car to prominent shows and eventually sold it to Ralph Whitworth.

Intended to display the car in a planned museum in Winnemucca, Nevada; had the roadster fully re-restored by Tim Strange of Strange Engineering after transport damage prevented judging at Pebble Beach.

Converted the car into a notable street roadster, adding bobbed rear fenders crafted by Art Chrisman along with baby moon caps and wide whitewall tires.

Subsequent owner after Lydecker; the car was channeled and fitted with a Buick V-8 at some point around this period.

Owner in the chain between Vitteraly and Longley; no additional details provided.

A timing tag mounted on the dash records this speed; the run is documented by the Russetta Timing Association.

Specially arranged contest before a large crowd that included Vic Edelbrock Sr., Ed Winfield, and Phil Weiand; Ernie McAfee photographed the finish and the event is cited as an early precursor to quarter-mile drag racing.

Entered by the Longley family following completion of their restoration; the car was well received at the L.A. Roadsters Father's Day meet shortly before this appearance.

Recognition coincided with the car's listing in a prominent periodical feature on the greatest examples of the model.

The car was invited to attend but sustained damage during transit and was therefore withdrawn from judging.

The roadster competed at multiple bullring venues; Jack McGrath also drove it during this period alongside Ayulo.

The original flathead V-8 was removed and replaced with a 265 cubic inch Chevrolet V-8 engine. Bobbed rear fenders attributed to Art Chrisman were added during Rowland's ownership; Guldahl's tenure brought the engine swap.

Engine replacement carried out during Ralph Guldahl Jr.'s ownership.

Chuck Longley and his son Mike undertook a comprehensive restoration, sourcing a correct flathead V-8, a 1934 Auburn dash panel, a period rimless steering wheel, an early Cadillac fuel pressure pump, 1939 Ford teardrop taillights, and numerous other era-correct components, guided by surviving period photographs.

The car still retained its original body, frame, and chopped windshield at the start of this work.

The body was channelled and a Buick V-8 installed, replacing the Chevrolet unit. Additional changes from this period are unrecorded.

Work undertaken during the Art Vitteraly era or thereabouts; precise dating and workshop unknown.

Following transport damage sustained prior to a planned Pebble Beach appearance, a thorough frame-off re-restoration was carried out, returning the car as closely as possible to how Pete Henderson had originally configured it. Upholstery was completed by Jamie Rice. Bare-metal strip and rebuild guided by conversations with Henderson and study of period photography.

Work performed by Tim Strange, a National Rod and Custom Hall of Fame inductee, based in Lewisburg, Tennessee. Undertaken during Ralph Whitworth's ownership.
