Description
Hold on to your thoughts for a few moments and I will see if I can mess with a few words! What is the technical definition of the word Zipper? It's a Noun: a fastener for locking together two toothed edges, by means of a sliding tab "Zip Up or Yer Thingy May Fall Out" Synonyms: Slide fastener, Zip fastener, Zip As a Verb: close with a Zipper Synonyms: Zip, Zip it Up! The Dream Dictionary say's: !To see a Zipper in Yer Dreams, Implies Sexuality and Innuendos! Oh Yea! To see a Broken Zipper in Yer Dreams, Signifies your frustration in Not being able to resolve a situation or problem! Well this working Zipper may cause you to have wet dreams! Hey, what happened to a Zip Tie! Finally, What is a Blown Zipper?
Anyway, I simply may have gone loopy! In this case, the word "Zipper" applies to a wonderfully designed 32 Ford Street Rod by Darrell Zipp! A true work of Style, Superb Craftsmanship and Extreme Creativity by a Master Builder/Designer! As the story goes, Darrell Zipp spent countless hours building this very car for the Oakland Roadster Show to win the "Finest Detail Award" with NO expense spared! To Learn more about the builder go to ZipperMotors.com!
Packed neatly under the Hood and Between the Scalloped (inside and out) Hood Sides is a stroked Chevy Small Block with 383 cubes fed by dual carbs and Blown with a B & M Mega Blower! This little Light Weight handling machine packs an estimated 540 HORSEPOWER! What could be polished in the engine compartment, IS! Either you get a woody or you pucker up! K@@L HP! Regardless of the outside temp, he runs at less than 180 degrees! The Modified Turbo 350 Trans makes a take off realistic with a Stall Torque Converter! Oh my stars, wind me up! A custom made Ford 9" rear diff with Coil-Overs controls the possible wipe out! Ok, it's very drivable too! How do you define that? The overall quality of the mechanical detail on this unit is unsurpassed! Four Wheel Billet Disc Brakes with Built in Polished Backing Plates/Air Scoops! Up Front the ride is controlled by a smoooooth operating Torsion Bar! A Confection of High Tech Polished Perfection! Heck even the floor pans are scalloped like the sides! (YOU MUST L@@K at the sub-page of pictures) Every Wire is Hidden, All Nuts are Aluminum Capped, All Paint Surfaces are Smoothed and Extreme! You get the Idea! Am I done, NO!
On the outside, the Paint is PPG Basecoat Clear-Coat Black with Viper Red Scallops/Top Surfaces! Up front resides a FINK Grill! Directional Lights are Concealed within the Headlight mounts molded into the "32 ZIPPER FRAME"! Out Back and Concealed within the "ZIPPER BODY" hides LED Lighting! The easy to remove (one person possible) Custom Removable Top, is wrapped around a Trademark Zipper Curved Windshield that is just plain, SEXY! The details continued to the inside with incredible Wing Wrapped Diamond's sewn into the Full Leather Door Panels and Contour Seating! The wrap around dash creates tons of comfort room and late model style! I could go on but if you looked at all of the pix, you get the idea, WOW!
In Closing, are you ready for "HOT AUGUST NIGHTS"? Want unmistakable style? This one is not your normal 32 Roadster, It is the ULTIMATE! Shut Up, Put Yer Thingy Away, Zip yer Zipper, Bid to Own and Have Zipper Dreams! I hope you have enjoyed your Trip or Visit? If Not, What can I say? You are too Stiff! HA!
Known Items: This is a 1932 Ford "Zipper" Roadster by Darrell Zipp, called "Black Diamond". it was his own Idea, Design and Build! Built exclusively for the Oakland Roadster Show by Zipp Himself! Only 115 Bodies were produced and this is one of them! Then He moved onto his current and amazing "Lakes Modifieds"
Built for the Oakland Roadster Show in the "Year of the Northridge Earthquake", it was damaged and did not make the show! Caused an Earth-Quake? Huh! This car is called "Black Diamond" and was later featured in Street Rodder in December 1994, Two Magazine Covers, American Rodder December 1996, Rod Action & Street Machines February 1997 (along with articles.) Many Awards: Please Note: A couple of the articles state, this car was the idea of the owner and he built most of it. That fact is not true. This complete car "Black Diamond", was Darrell's own Idea, Design and Build, Turn Key!
My Analysis: Still Very Much a Show Car 10 years later, even better than that, it's an Incredible High End Driver! What a Fun Car to Drive! Excellent Condition! It has been driven and should be! This car is currently in "Exceptionally Clean Condition" and an Amazing Toy! Noisy, Fast and Fun! It Is What It Is and you will be satisfied if you read all I have written! Take some time and polish until yer hearts content and take home some even BIGGER or BETTER Trophy's! Make sure you look at the sub-page page of pictures and you will see what I mean, Spectacular! The Complete Gauge Package was recently Up-Dated from a hard to read Dakota Digital! Titled as a 1932 Ford! Not New and Not Perfect but D--- Nice! Needs Nothing but you to pet and polish!
