classic vintage chrome fomoco 347 v8 stroker auto transmission maroon
Description
The 1937 Ford coupes are always popular, but this steel bodied classic has all the right features to be a cut-above hot rod. With a stroker V8, overdrive transmission, upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, a nicely finished A/C interior, and plenty of charisma, this might be your best opportunity to pick up the fully-finished pre-war custom Ford you've always wanted.
If you were thinking about running moonshine in this one, think again. The extended trunks of these business coupes were a favorite of liquor-running outlaws, but in this case, the once inconspicuous styling is now long gone. The professionally applied maroon paintwork shines brightly on the steel body. And the clearcoat finish loves to highlights the iconic '37 Ford front end with its deeply-dipping pointed grille and teardrop headlights. And the sleek looks goes with sporty details like the big/bright dual exhaust tips, lowered suspension, and polished baby moon wheel covers with a 15/16-inch front/rear stagger a little extra aggression in the stance.
Inside the deep maroon continues and its intertwined with a bright red. You'll love the look of the well-done pieces, like how the insert in the door panels matches the comfy velour bench seat. They have kept the dash looking as clean and vintage as possible, but that doesn't mean this skips out on the best features. The AM/FM stereo is mounted out of the way in the roof, and the controls for the cold-blowing R134a air conditioning are tucked in by the steering column. Even the gauges have a classic look. Plus, the wood-rimmed steering wheel and tall shifter make sure you have a comfortable feeling from the driver's seat.
The engine bay is ready to show off with a color-matched ribbed air topper and an overall tidy presentation. And those Cobra valve covers announce that this classic Ford has proper Blue Oval power. The consignor states this is a 347 cubic-inch stroker V8. It has go-fast goodies like Edelbrock performer RPM aluminum heads, a mid-rise intake, two-inch spacer, and a four-barrel carburetor. There are also the right supporting pieces, like an upgraded ignition, upgraded pulleys, steel braded hoses, and an aluminum radiator. The undercarriage photos show more of this full clean build, and you'll also spot the Mustang II-style front end with tubular arms and the trailing arm rear. This coupe is not only powerful, but also comfortable. It was built to be shown off everywhere near or far with ease. That's why you have great driving upgrades like four-wheel power disc brakes and a four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive.
When style, power, and comfort all come together on the same car, you know it's an irresistible deal. So don't miss your chance. Call today!!!
