Then there was the guy who built a "brand new" 32 Ford "Deuce" from all NOS
parts.
Was it a new car or an old car ? Was it "original" or "repro" ?
Anyone know where that car is today ?

I believe that to be impossible - Maybe from New replacement parts. The
likelihood of all the original 1932 Ford-manufactured parts being available is
tiny, wouldn't you say? If any big pieces were still sitting around in 1942,
they got recycled and dropped on Germany or Japan.
PS - California now has a category for cars that are built to resemble a
particular car, such as a 32 built up out of new parts. It isn't titled as a
Brand new 2005 car, but not as an original, either. Some fuzzy gray area
inbetween, like Kit car conversions. I wonder how the "new", 1969 Camaro will be
titled? It is a totally new shell, with no GM/Chevy origin parts. Hmmm. . .
