Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to list this sleek 1953 Ford Crestline Victoria. This Green machine is powered by a 239 CID Flathead V8 engine and mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. A classic Ford Flathead is known to have a sound of its own, add in the headers and dual exhaust, this Crestline sounds mean. Under the hood of this classic Ford is well maintained and organized. Notice the electric system is a 12-volt set up, the flathead and intake were repainted, and the aluminum radiator with electric fan setup were all redone. This Ford turns heads everywhere it goes with a stylish green metallic paint on the body and a gloss white roof. The bumpers, headlight bezel pieces, fender skirts, and taillight bezels are all painted to match. Topping off the curb appeal of this Crestline would be the mini moon chrome hubcaps wrapped in white wall (taped) radial tires and chrome trim prices that offsets the green paint well. The interior of this car is clean and sports white vinyl bench seating. Keeping with the two-toned theme, this Ford's interior is also green carpeted and has a fuzzy white headliner. The âthree on the tree" column shifts smooth and really takes you back to this era. Additional features on this car includes the AM/FM radio and interior aftermarket gauges. If you are looking for a sharp cruiser with some period correct features, this is the '53 for you.

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.
