Test Drove 32 Ford 5 Window Coupe
I am getting into a Ford 32 for the first time. Up to this point at 43 I have always been into 60's muscle cars. I test drove it over the weekend and the rear rode pretty rough. Almost like a wagon..... Has brand new QA1 Coil Over shocks on the rear. Some have told me that Coupes just ride rough. Is this true?
Also it has a Pete and Jakes front axle with a single leaf spring. I noticed the front end kinda wondered from time to time. It did NOT pull one way or the other just felt likes the wheels wondered a little at 55mph and faster.
I have been reading on this site over the past few weeks and hope that you guys can help educate me.
Thanks in advance.
