An old favorite! Galen, I wonder how many variations of this one were made? Here's one: (pic)

Nice model and nice color. But the headlights?
It's quite hard to find pictures of original '32 Fords. (pic) Many are now hot rods.

Can't get behind this one. The grill, headlight bar and headlights are just to toy like.
Actually not bad for the going price.

PIC 32 Roadster by Eligor / France for comparison - these started me collecting 1/43 in the 1980s...

Might not be too hard to improve it.
The body, paint job and wheels are nice. It looks like that clumsy front bar could be removed with a little care, and replaced with a piece of heavy bright wire or a piece of thinner plastic rod or sprue heated and bent to shape, and the headlights expoxied or superglued on to it.

I know some of our folks enjoy that type of work and I enjoy seeing it.
