Possessed built by Scott's Hot Rods

This Roadster is called “Possessed” and was build by Scott’s Hot Rods for Mike and Dianna Dingman and won the coveted “America’s Most Beautiful Roadster” award in 2010. This isn’t the first time that a car build by Scott’s Hot Rods has won the award as they also won it for “Undisputed” in 2008 which you can read about here.

Every panel on this car has been hard-formed by the team at Scott’s Hot Rods with the idea being to employ the techniques used by coach builders of the period to create the desired look. The body of possessed has been stretched by a whopping 13 inches with 10 inches in the front and 2 inches in the doors.

“This was my bucket list car,” said Dingman. “I’ve always wanted to build a car to compete for this award. I had always wanted to build a car—a Ford, of course—that could express my ideas of what an early Ford roadster would have looked like if Ford had built a coach that competed with the Bugattis and other high-class cars of that style and era.”

The power for this roadster is delivered by a modified and fuel injected 392 cubic-inch engine that was sourced through a relationship that Mike Dingman had with Ford. The paint was applied by Alan Palmer at his custom paint and body shop in Camarillo with paint supplied by BASF called “Burnt Umber” and over the top of that was spray 5 layers of clear laquer.

This is Rudy Necoechea’s gold two-door 1932 Ford Roadster called “Undisputed”. It was built by Scott’s Hot Rods ‘N’ Customs in Oxnard, California. The roadster was a “Great 8″ winner at the 2007 Riddler Award at Autorama and was then completely rebuild before entering and winning the “America’s Most Beautiful Roadster” show in 2008.

Justin Padfield started Scott’s Hotrods ‘N Customs several years ago in a shop that measured just 2,000 square foot but they have since outgrown this and are now working from a 16,000 square foot shop. They have built many of the top Hot Rods that fill the magazines and as you can see from the pictures there commitment to quality is second to none.

The interior features a neat dashboard with the gauges fitted into a central pillar that flows down the center of the car. It is fitted with custom gauges and an Ididit steering column shaped like a wine glass and a Boyd Billet steering wheel.

The rear-end is as detailed as the other areas of the car with the power being delivered to the road via a quick-change unit that was machined out of a single block of aluminum. Those incredible wheels are supplied by Boyd Codington and are 20 inch at the front and 22 inch at the rear.
