1932 b400
Never heard of one until now. Found this on kijiji. I guess they are quite rare and sought after. This seems to be original and has the V8.

Worldwide production was 1,296. Many of the survivors were in Europe, such as the car in your photos in Switzerland.

Re: 1932 b400
The car in Ziggsters photos is also in an ad on the HAMB run by a man in Canada. Best offer over $75K. Says it's in MacGregor? Walter Kowalsky the guy that converts a deuce sedan into a B400 clone. He's been selling them for around $35k if he furnishes the body. He did one for me back when he first started. I started out with a $1500 swap meet shell and he did miracles. I never tried to fool anyone as I had him chop the top 1 inch. Last time I saw it was in Texas. It was black with a black top, blood red interior and dark red wires. I'm sure it looks different by now?

The kijiji ad shows seller’s location being Manitoba, Canada. Not sure if the car is there though. In this ad he was originally asking for anything over $78K. I just checked the ad, and now asking price has jumped to $82.5K. Better act quick! Lol!

Re: 1932 b400
Back in the early 1970's a partner and I bought a 400B for re-sale from Tom Penney from Maine. We sold it to a buyer from Colorado who already had one or more of this body style. I was able to meet him several year later, and he told me that he was very happy with his purchase.
