Ford 5-Window Coupe Coupe 355 Supercharged V8 1934

Allmän beskrivning : Description
Are 1934 Fords the ultimate American street rod? This 1934 Ford 5-Window Coupe certainly puts on a convincing demonstration with a wicked stance, vivid red paint job, and a herculean powerplant led by the supercharged 355 V8 under the 3-piece hood. Built a mere 4,362 miles ago, this steel-bodied '34 is a turn-key hotrod that has both the hardware and the timeless looks to dominate the streets for decades to come.
You can spot a '34 Ford a quarter-mile away simply because every single line, curve, and louver is exactly right. The smart builders know not to mess too much with a good thing, so this handsome 5-Window coupe got a slight top chop that accentuates the rake, but not much else from the looks of it. Of course, the sheetmetal was prepped with the craftsmanship that only comes in top hot rod shops (built by the pros at Heinzman Street Rod Shop in Nebraska), so gaps are even, the finish is distortion-free, and despite 4k miles of use, it still looks very good. The build was completed in 1993, which you'd never guess when looking at how well this streetrod has held up. Minimal use (about 155 miles logged per year) and loads of care throughout the years have preserved this '34 in top driver-quality condition, and the fact that it looks like it was finished not long ago is a testament to the original build quality. The bold Red paint dances in the lights, with plenty of shine and luster maintained through years of careful wash and waxes from the conscientious former owners. Trim and brightwork is minimal but they did keep some of the shiny stuff: the deeply Vee'd grille, twin King Bee style headlights, simple hood trim, teardrop taillights, and what are arguably the most attractive door handles ever fitted to an automobile. The bumpers were deleted and the fiberglass fenders and running boards which feature black vinyl step guards result is a smooth, streamlined look that looks refreshing in every decade.
The interior is drop-dead gorgeous, nicely finished but not over-wrought like so many recent rods. Simple tan tweed with vinyl trim covers the bench seat and the door panels are dressed with the same stuff, along with chrome handles that add nice pop. The suicide-style doors make climbing in graceful and easy, and it's filled with comfort features like power steering, power brakes, a tilt column, and a Pioneer CD changer with controls neatly stashed away in the glove compartment. A beautifully finished dash was painted to match the body and holds retro-looking black VDO gauges that keep a close eye on the monster that lives under the hood, and a boost retard switch was installed underneath to keep the blower at bay when needed. Very cool. Up top, the headliner was finished in the same beautiful tweed pattern found on the seats and door panels, while the carpets below are still in great shape, fully insulating the cabin from road noise. Out back, the trunk was upholstered to match the cabin, with hidden compartments stowing away things like the battery and wiring, and there's enough room in there to account for any Power Tour in this hotrod's future.
Those of you expecting a run-of-the-mill small block Chevy are going to be disappointed because this cool Ford packs a lot more heat than that: a 355 Supercharged V8. It really shouldn't be a surprise; after all, these engines are incredibly durable, very torquey, and with a fair number of performance parts available for them, it's a wonderful alternative to the same-old, same-old. Augmented with Dart heads and topped with a big polished BDS 671 blower and dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors that force-feed the stout motor and make it act like a far bigger engine without eliminating all the small block advantages. It's also nicely detailed with lots of brightly polished and chromed details and ceramic coated shorty headers that make people do a double take when the hood is lifted. It's tied to a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission and what appears to be a Ford 9-inch rear end, so it's a great highway cruiser and the painted and detailed chassis was obviously set up to show off. With Mustang II-style A-arms and power rack-and pinion steering up front and coilovers and a big sway bar in the rear, it tracks well and the stainless steel Flowmaster dual exhaust sounds aggressive without getting annoying. Polished slotted wheels look slick and are wrapped with staggered 185/70/14 front and 235/70/15 rear Kumho radials that give it the prefect hotrod stance.
A no-expenses-spared build when it was first finished, this remains a very high-quality rod with a very interesting hardware list and an awesome look. Call today!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
