1936 Ford Deluxe Convertible 1721 Miles Maroon Convertible 350 V8 4 Speed Automa

Description

With Henry Ford steel, timeless aesthetics and a clean leather interior, this Ford's basic specs could describe a relatively stock car. But a few minutes of deeper examination reveals otherwise, as, from trick wheels and 350 cubic inches of Chevrolet V8 to cool air conditioning and a modern automatic transmission, choice modifications start adding up to one impressive ride! The car's smooth body began life as solid Henry Ford steel that was maintained, driven and paraded for most of its... existence. During a gradual, ground-up restoration, that old school metal was stripped, sanded and kept as intentionally original as possible. That classy fuselage stretches rich Maroon 2-stage under Maroon cloth that's finished with a glass backlite. And ultimately, this De Luxe rolls as a fetching classic that walks a fine line between traditional street rod swing and outrageous SoCal flair. 'Keep it simple' is a good philosophy when it comes to performance and reliability. And the builders of this clean classic did exactly that by equipping the car with a steady, 350 cubic inch Chevrolet small block. Behind that mill, a chrome-trimmed 700R4 4-speed, equipped with a finned cooler, spins power to a chrome-capped 10-bolt axle. That stout drivetrain rides an upgraded chassis that's fitted with tubular control arms and beefy coil-over-shocks. Modern rack-and-pinion steering is a welcome addition. Braking is solid, thanks to a floor-mounted booster, a rail-mounted proportioning valve and four large discs. And everything rolls on stainless-trimmed wires, which spin two 185/65R15 BF Goodrich Silvertown whitewalls and two 235/70R15 BF Goodrich Silvertown whitewalls around bright yellow paint and ornate "V8" center caps.
