Ford Coupe 408 V8 1950

Allmän beskrivning : Description
A super-slick exterior, comfy custom interior, full suspension upgrades, and huge V8 power make this 1950 Ford Business Coupe Pro Street one mean and green custom build.
Ford had one of the best three-box designs with the sleek business coupe, and it was one of the rarest styles for 1950. So that makes for the perfect place to start this full custom build. With the amount of metallic shine radiating from the Synergy Green the whole car turns into one large emerald beacon the moment the sunlight hits it. Rivaling this paint for all-out brightness is the restored chrome trim package that includes the wraparound bumpers, full window trim, exposed trunk latches, and full-length side trim. And of course, there's no missing the iconic bullet nose with an "8" just so everyone knew back then that you were piloting the big motor – today that holds even truer (more on that in a moment.) You'll love pouring over all the classic details, like the blue-dot headlights and taillights. They meet modern performance upgrades like the power bulge hood and Boyd Coddington Junk Yard Dog wheels.
The appeal of the custom interior is as clear as black and white... literally. The door panels, low-back bucket seats, and contoured center console have a terrific two-tone striped appearance. The cool purple glow from the custom lighting is a masterful touch of color. This has all the right upgrades, including a Lokar shifter, cup holders, custom chrome steering wheel on a chrome tilt column, upgraded full gauge panel, and an AM/FM radio with iPod hookup. Plus, as a true business coupe, this just has a parcel shelf in the rear. But even that's been upgraded with a cool flame-kissed panel that now houses the full speaker package w/subwoofer. The big trunk contains a fuel cell and a nice indicator of what's powering this pro street machine.
When you open the hood, the slick green fender walls and firewall funnel all your attention to that monster motor. It's a 396 cubic-inch big block that has an award-worthy tidiness and looks built for combat. The big V8 got bigger as it was bored out to 408 ci total, and it has been fortified and enhanced with features like Pro Comp aluminum heads, welded alloy valve covers, a wicked cam, Edelbrock Dominator intake, and a large 750 CFM Summit Racing four-barrel carburetor. The long tube headers feed a thunderous dual exhaust, or you can just open the electric cutouts for the ultimate intimidation experience. Making sure that all this power gets to the ground properly is a stout TH350 three-speed automatic with a 3,500 RPM stall for the optimal powerband. And the stout Ford 9-inch rear has a Detroit locker, 35 spline axles, and 4.10 ratio. That combines with the wide Mickey Thompson rear rubber for terrific power takeoffs. The suspension has been fully upgraded to take advantage of all this muscle. The front now has a Mustang II-style independent setup. In the rear is an S&W Racing four-link with adjustable coilovers. Four-wheel disc brakes mean you can keep firm control of this green monster.
Complete with restoration photos, this was a personal project by a custom car shop owner. He took nine years to complete this full setup, and so you know this is a top-quality build. Labors of love like this rarely leave their creator's hands, so don't miss this rare opportunity. Call now!

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
