This particular 1936 Deluxe Roadster was reportedly one of the first built for the 1936 model year, with a September 1935 date of manufacture. The car had a body off restoration in 1998 by Ford expert Jerry Veley. The car is finished in factory correct black with saddle veal-grain leather upholstery. The top and interior are beautifully fitted utilizing LeBaron-Bonney materials. The car is equipped with a rumble seat, and a very desirable original accessory radio. The restoration was judged three times by the Early Ford V-8 Club, eventually receiving a perfect score of 1,000 points and no fewer than three of the famed Dearborn Awards. In 2009-2010 Mr. Veley refreshed the restoration. The car is powered by a 221ci L-head V8 engine which is paired to a three-speed manual transmission. The roadster utilizes solid front and a live rear axle with transverse semi-elliptical leaf springs and four-wheel mechanical brakes. With only 3,862 examples produced in 1936, this Ford Deluxe Roadster is a rare example of this model. It performs, runs and drives extremely well and will not disappoint. 1936 Ford V8 Deluxe Roadster
