Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present this custom 1936 Ford Tudor humpback. This Ford has come a long way since it first rolled off the production line. Though the body is still all Henry Ford steel, the engine and trans have been removed in favor of a 5.3L LS-based V8 and 4L60E 4-speed automatic overdrive unit. Needless to say, this makes for a much peppier ride. A 9" Ford housing sits out back with 3:50 gears for a good mix of performance and economy.
The Humpback had had plenty of work elsewhere on the chassis as well, including new ball joints, new shocks, new control arms, new power steering rack, new U-joints, and new steering joint. This is all as a refresh since the restomod was completed in 2009. At that time, the body was painted in this beautiful Midnight Blue, and the plush tan interior was installed as well. With the car comes extra documentation, such as receipts for work done on the car as well as shop manuals.
With all the updates on this slick '36, it drives like a new car! Options include: Air-Conditioning, AM/FM/CD/Cassette, Spare Tire & Jack, Lumbar Support, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Seats, Power Sunroof, Power Windows, Tilt Steering Wheel, Keyless Entry, Seat Belts, Anti-Theft System, Radial Tires, and Alloy Wheels.

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.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
