Ron Carlsten’s 1932 Ford 5-Window Coupe
Ron Carlsten calls his classic 1932 Ford 5-Window Coupe the “227 Bullet Coupe” because, well … it had 227 bullet holes in it. “Some friends and I were in the garage one night,” Ron told me. “We’d had a few drinks and decided to count all the bullet holes.”
I was hoping for a Bonnie and Clyde type of story about the bullets, but alas that was not to be. Ron believes it was nothing more than target practice. How Ron would end up building a classic Deuce Coupe hot rod, however, might be as good as the Bonnie and Clyde story anyway.
