How about some love for the 36 Fords? You see a lot of 32-34 rods running aroundand#44; but the 36sand#44; with their own distinctive grille and handsome styling make fantastic cruisersand#44; too. This bright yellow 1936 Ford tudor sedan is an all-steel car with an older build and the right featuresand#44; all at the right price. Amazing what a coat of paint can doand#44; right? This Ford carries unmodified bodyworkand#44; including the roofand#44; which still has a fabric insert living under that roof rack. Every square inch of it was drenched in bright yellow paintand#44; so it sure isnt subtleand#44; but it does have an eye-catching look. The shape is completely as Ford intendedand#44; but the little stuff is what makes this car special. Note the painted grilleand#44; which is a nice evolution of the 1935 redesignand#44; the delicate creases that run down the centers of the fendersand#44; and the integrated turn signals that take the place of the original horn grilles. Bright graphics along the sides give it a unique look and while theres plenty of evidence of age and wearand#44; it pretty much guarantees that you wont hesitate to drive this car. Pedestal taillights are original and just too pretty to be replaced by some aftermarket thingsand#44; and the dipped bumpers are the way Henry made themand#44; too. Gray cloth upholstery creates a sporty interior with all the amenities. Bucket seats from a late-model and the full-width back seat is still fully usable for family-style cruising and theres a functional center console between the front seats. The durable cloth upholstery is in good condition and the door panels are simple and effective. Stylish gauges have a retro look that works well with the diamond-tufted instrument panel and headlinerand#44; something you might have seen at the Auto-Rama when you were a kid in the 80s. Other features include A/C (needs servicing)and#44; a Sony AM/FM/CD stereo and power windows. The interior is one place you could invest a little time and effort that would really pay offand#44; and at this priceand#44; theres plenty of room to improve without hurting your bottom-line. And the great thing about this Ford is that it has a rather useful trunk thats thoughtfully fitted with a space-saver spareand#44; just in case. Simpleand#44; reliable power in the form of a 350 cubic inch Chevy V8 lives under the original louvered hood. Theres nothing radicaland#44; just solidand#44; proven mechanicals thatll get you where you want to go. Holley supplied a 4-barrel carburetorand#44; there are block-hugging exhaust manifoldsand#44; an HEI ignition lights it upand#44; and the accessory drive is pulled in tightly to the block to fit in the narrow engine bay. The chrome valve covers have been playfully fitted with Ford script emblems and a few areas were covered in yellow paint to tie it together. The chassis includes things like a Mustang II front suspensionand#44; 2004R 4-speed automatic transmissionand#44; and a 10-bolt rear end on leaf springsand#44; so its easy to drive and comfortable on the road. Chrome steel wheels with spinners and staggered 195/65/15 front and 225/75/15 rear blackwall radials round out the look. At this priceand#44; theres a lot of car hereand#44; ready to upgrade and enjoy. The basics are certainly thereand#44; its steeland#44; and theres no arguing with the classic look. Call today! |
