Ford Custom 286 ci Flathead V8 1939

Allmän beskrivning : 1939 Ford Convertible Sedan You are looking at a piece of American automobile history.  This 1939 Ford Convertible Sedan was originally built by Hotrod Hall of Fame builder, Dick Kraft between 1945 and 1948 in California.  It ran at El Mirage dry lakes in 1947 and did the measured quarter mile at 112.52 mph.  The car was frame off restored in 2003 and is painted the original Mexicali Maroon.  The non removable top was made by the original Carson company in 1948 and was recovered in 2003.  It is able to be removed but the current design doesn't allow that to be done like Carson's more modern tops.  The front and rear bumpers are off a 1937 Desoto and the rear taillights are from a 1941 Studebaker.  The front headlights are original 39 Ford equipped with Halogen lamps. The hood has been louvered and looks great. This car is powered by a 1948 59AB 286 cubic inch Flathead V8.  The motor has an Eske cam, Ross pistons, adjustable lifters, new valves, new 130 amp alternator, 3 5/16 bore, 4 inch stroke, a Mercury crank shaft and new Offenhauser heads with light port & relieve.  The intake is by Thickson equipped 2-2 barrel Edelbrock 94 carburetors.  It is topped off with a very cool Thickson air breather and has been rebuilt by Flathead expert, Bud Lee less than 200 miles ago.  During the rebuild the block was vatted and oil passages were drilled out with the entire oil filter system being redone.  The motor is backed up with a 3 speed manual transmission and the original banjo rear end with 3:54 gears.  The undercarriage is very clean and solid.  It features a 3 inch drop axle with reverse eye leaf springs up front and in the rear. Rebuilt drum brakes provide all the stopping power needed and the dual exhaust runs all the way out the rear and sounds great.  Keeping it cool is a new 1939 Walker radiator with electric puller fan and shroud.    The beautiful interior is done in a roll/pleat fashion using Oxblood and Tan leather.  With Daytona weave carpeting, the interior is a thing of beauty.  Even the door panels and headliner are done in the same high quality leather. It has all new tinted glass and new weather-stripping throughout.  The steering wheel is original and in great condition.  It has the original headlight switch horn button that still functions properly.  A set of new old stock gauges compliments the dash board and the glove box has been signed by Dick Kraft. The car won the "Timeless Street Rod" award at the Goodguys Lonestar Nationals in 2006 and has appeared in various magazines over its lifetime.  It comes with a complete documented history and would be a fine addition to any serious collection.  It is truly a car that needs to be preserved as part of Hotrodding history.  This historical Hot Rod could be yours for NOW REDUCED DOWN TO $74,500.00!
