Ford Coupe 350 V8 1931

Allmän beskrivning : SLICK STEEL-BODY STREETROD, 350 V8, AUTO, 9" REAR, POWER FRONT DISC, TURNKEY!!

This nicely crafted 1930 Ford coupe has a great look that's almost timeless, offering clean lines, solid construction, and totally built for comfort. While it's an older build, today it remains a fully-sorted rod that's ready to hit the road and look great doing it, with a perfect stance, interesting paint, and a comfortable interior that is perhaps the ideal combination of practicality and style.
More stylish than a tudor sedan and more comfortable than a roadster, the coupe was Ford's bread-and-butter car that seemed to do it all. Rendered in a very attractive shade of medium purple, it takes on a whole new dimension, and yes Ford fans, that's 100% Henry steel on the body. Fiberglass rear fenders were subtly tweaked to work with the fat tires and lowered stance, then covered with more of that bright paint that makes this Ford really stand out on the show field. Great attention to detail explains why this was a magazine cover car, and despite the flashy look, it's subtle in its modifications, sporting only a relocated gas filler cap (dig the clean fuel filler door), filled roof, and deleted hood sides. Even the door handles survived the transformation intact, and all the stainless and chrome still looks great with a vintage shine, including the accessory grille guard up front. It's clean, simple, and the whole look works rather well.
In 1930, the coupe was either a 2- or 4-passenger vehicle, with a bench seat up front and an optional rumble seat in back. The rumble seat is now a trunk, and the front seat is a plush bench that's a bit more comfortable than the original and adds a few precious inches of legroom. White upholstery is the right choice, since you don't want to compete with the paint, and the durable materials still look great even after a few years. The pleated vinyl on the seats and door panels has a '60s vibe, and it's nicely done offering an inviting look that does seem right for the upright little coupe. The original Model A instrument panel has been replaced by an oak instrument panel with a full array of Classic Instruments gauges and a built-in glove box that wasn't possible when it was original (the gas tank was in the cowl). A tilt column and an overhead CD stereo system are great upgrades for cruising and the full-sized trunk means there's plenty of room for all your gear.
This A has more than a few tricks up its sleeves, too. The engine is a 350 cubic inch Chevy V8 topped by an Edelbrock intake manifold and Holley carburetor, a combination that was perfected decades ago so you can hit the road without worries. Packaging is tight in the Model A's engine bay, but thanks to careful fabrication, everything fits and stays cool thanks to a massive radiator and electric fans. A few chrome dress-up items, plus those aluminum valve covers, give it a clean under-hood look at shows and the wiring is all new. It's backed by a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission spinning a 9-inch rear end with 3.73 gears inside. Up front there's a dropped I-beam axle with rack-and-pinion steering, so effort is light. Mellow-sounding mufflers sound just about right and terminate in a pair of close-set tips just under the rear deck. Wheels are polished American Racing mags and wear staggered 215/70/15 front and 275/60/15 rear BFGoodrich radials.
A classic rod with a few twists under its skin and a traditional vibe, what's not to love about this awesome Model A? 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
