Take a look at this beautiful pre-war Ford!
Approaching this Model 48, it's difficult not to be taken with its sleek profile and its charming good looks!This was my father's long-time parade car, he loved it and so will you!There are no major imperfections visible anywhere.And overall, the car literally defines class and grace.
As the company's final Henry Ford -fueled innovation, the Ford V8 remains a durable, torque-rich power-plant that, thanks to solid engineering, has established an unmatched reputation in the classic and custom car community.And, in keeping with tradition, this stellar Ford 5-window is powered by a correct flathead V8 that, thanks to relatively tame 6.12 to 1 compression, makes roughly 90 horsepower on a 112 in. wheelbase.The engine has been rebuilt, and probably is better today than when it climbed off the assembly line.Take one look under the hood and you'll be impressed.
The car's clean floors, heavy duty frame and factory-accurate suspension are an added benefit.A correct 3-speed manual still lives behind the rock-solid engine, proving 'simple is good' by doing an excellent job of twisting an authentic, banjo-style rear end.And everything rolls on a striking combination of red wires, fresh whitewalls and detailed "V8" branded hub caps. She has been garage kept and if you're ready to start taking home trophies, email, click or just come and visit for more information on this awesome Ford coupe!
