Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1951
Ford Custom Convertible! A few years after WWII ended Ford was
looking to bring a new car to the top trim level in their lineup.
The Custom name would live on for a long time but the Custom Deluxe
specifically was only made from 1949-1951. This model is the final
year, a '51 and she is a convertible. The Navy Blue paint with the
light tan convertible soft-top is in great shape. Coupled with all
the chrome and white wall tires gives this car a great presence.
Inside you'll find tan leather seats that match the top well and is
in good order. Under the hood is a rebuilt V8 engine backed by a
rebuilt 3-speed manual transmission with O/D (not hooked up). Per
the owner, the powertrain was rebuilt in 2015. Not just that
either, the entire car was restored and is documented by receipts
and photos in a binder that goes with the car. The owners states
the body was taken off, was sanded, primered, and painted at the
same time. All new interior, convertible top, fittings, the works.
Car was well restored by Funtime Classic Cars out of Ringgold,
Georgia. There is a binder of information that includes invoices,
receipts, photos, diagrams, parts used and more. A separate photo
album also goes with it that documents the restoration even
further. Total of all parts and labor exceeded $35k. Car runs,
drives, and shifts out very well as you would expect from such an
extensive build. Current owner has had her for over 25 years,
acquired from a private owner. Title is clean and clear and ready
to be transferred into your name now. These cars do not come around
often, especially convertibles, let alone with this level of work.
