Bill Towers’ ’32 Ford Packs a Hemified Punch
Vision; it’s what drives hot rodders to create something from scratch, often starting with a blank canvas. The imaginative part of the equation often rises from a pile of parts, many times assembled by canvassing an endless string of swap meets to locate just the right combination of bits to bring something to life. Regardless of whether you have designs on building a traditional-styled car, one with contemporary flair, of something in between, one thing for sure is that something or someone inspired you to do so.
Many times once a project gets started it gains momentum and continues onto completion, however on occasion there are times when they sometimes get stalled, needing someone else to bring them to completion. For Bill Towers of Milford, Delaware, hot rodding runs deep in his blood—ever since being introduced to hop-ups over 50 years ago by his dad. As early as 1958 his memories revolve around regular family trips to Georgetown Speedway to watch stock car racing at its finest while also building scale kit models of his heroes’ rides at the kitchen table. By the age of 16 he began a racing career spanning 20 years where he raced everything from stock cars to Sprint Cars at numerous tracks. The other side of the coin was a deep fascination of traditional hot rods that ruled the local streets as he was growing up.
