General description :
For sale in our Chicago showroom is one hot 1946 Ford Coupe. The vision behind this car is “What would happen if Mom and Dad gave Junior the family car and left for the weekend?” This blue-oval beauty is a perfect blend of style and performance. Powered by a Summit Racing crate Chevrolet 350 cubic inch V8 backed to a turbo-350 transmission, then routed out back to a Ford 9” packing 3.00:1 gears, this is a peppy little car that is very drivable on the highway. The suspension is lowered quite a bit from factory ride height, but it still smoother than most Cadillacs, courtesy of Heidts Suspension and Street Rod Engineering to name a few. The slick black paint is sure to grab your attention, and the red pin striping is sure to keep it. Swing yourself inside and be blown away by the synthetic material that is softer than leather, easier to maintain, and stronger. An XM radio is hidden to keep the dash lines clean and original, and an A/C system has been retrofitted to keep you as cool as this car looks. A full set of VDO gauges will help you keep tabs on the health of the engine. Well, Mom and Pop are coming back on Monday, are you gonna be the one to cruise this baby all weekend? Options include: Air-Conditioning, AM/FM/XM, Hub Caps, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Tilt Wheel, Seat Belts, Synthetic Leather Interior, and Radial Tires.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
