History Of Ford's Super Deluxe Convertible Model:
Styling was fresh for the 1941 Ford with wider front fenders, headlights were further apart, a bigger front grille with tall center section of vertical bars flanked by a smaller grille on each side. The 221ci V8 supplied 90 horsepower and was made available in three model series now branded Special, Deluxe and Super Deluxe. These new 1941 Fords also had larger rear fenders and a more stylish roofline. The wheelbase grew from 112 to 114 inches with overall length stretching to 194.3 inches. It became a little heftier as well gaining 150 pounds with a stronger X-frame chassis underneath, along with softer suspension springs, finally providing the Ford a more balanced road feel often reserved for much more expensive vehicles. This larger profile, combined with smaller running boards, also increased interiors dimensions dramatically allowing the front seat a substantial increase in width of seven more inches. The top end Super Deluxe models features included bright trim on the windshield, running boards, front and rear fenders, rear and side windows, wheel trimmings and chrome grille sections. Super Deluxe script was placed on the inboard position of the driver side front fender as special recognition. Today, they are recognized as one of the best road-going, pre-war vehicles collectors desire for touring and weekend cruising. All Ford convertibles produced were dressed in Super Deluxe trim.
