Peter,

"...will the Mac O/S support 32bit color..."

Yes...you'll need a Mac II/IIcx/IIx, System 6.0.3, and the 32-Bit QuickDraw
INIT.

"...vendors of 32bit boards...640x480 format..."

SuperMac Technology's Spectrum/24
RasterOps' ColorBoard 224 and ColorBoard 232
Truevision's NuVista 2M and NuVista 4M

"...vendors of 32bit board...1024x768 format..."

SuperMac Technology's Spectrum/24
RasterOps' ColorBoard 232
Truevision's NuVista 2M and NuVista 4M in INTERLACE mode

"...recommendations for color monitors..."

The most common would be Apple's 13" color monitor or you can use the 19"
Trinitron (GDM 1952) as sold by SuperMac or RasterOps.

I should also note that Radius sells the DirectColor/24 that drives their
19" Trinitron with a resolution of 1152x882.
