Vehicle Description
Looking to make your presence felt on the asphalt behind the wheel
of a street rod that's got serious visual impact, but is also
equipped to provide a great driving experience? This 1941 Ford
Coupe Deluxe has what you're after. In addition to a well-executed
paint scheme that's sure to turn heads, it features plenty of
dependable power under the hood to go along with a nice comfortable
interior.
This coupe will certainly attract its share of attention. It's
decked out in a paint scheme that's about as thoroughly "street
rod" as they come, with a shiny black foundation that's ornamented
with very skillfully hand painted flames extending backwards from
the nose up front, as well as some nice sharp pinstriping in back.
In a departure from what you often see in modded Fords of this
vintage, you'll notice that the cabin retains its original,
un-chopped height. While it may seem that the dramatic front end
and flared fenders on this '41 were the result of some aftermarket
handiwork, upon closer inspection you'll see that these features
actually remain in their original configuration - this model was
all about style when it was introduced. A nice, tasteful incline,
as well as fresh looking trim running the lengths of the sides and
the fresh glass surrounding the cabin, complete this Ford's street
ready look.
The interior is really in great shape and features a pair of nicely
contoured and plushly padded bucket seats that wear two tone tweed
covers to match the door panels to each side. There's a lot to like
inside these doors - the rear seat area features sharply finished
surrounding walls, the headliner above looks new and fits great,
and the dash area has been thoroughly restored and now carries a
full assortment of Classic Instruments gauges in its cluster, just
in front of a custom woodgrain steering wheel that sits on a
tilting column and carries a Mooneyes tachometer. An underdash air
conditioning system has also been added to keep everyone nice and
comfortable. The trunk space in back is considerable and combines
with this vintage Ford's dependable drivetrain to make for a ride
that's well-suited for worry free weekend getaways.
A strong running 350 cubic inch V8 occupies the engine compartment.
It's armed with an Edelbrock intake manifold and a 4-barrel Holley
carb that sits underneath a very sharp chrome air cleaner. A
K&N air filter has been added to maximize flow to the carb,
along with a sizable aluminum radiator equipped with an electric
fan to keep operating temperatures in check. The engine sounds
great as it exhales into its long tube headers and pairs with a
4-speed automatic 200r4 transmission that shifts with confidence-
inspiring precision and has been equipped with its own cooler for
added all-weather dependability. With a coilover suspension up
front and air shocks in back, this Ford features a quality,
adjustable ride, while power front disc brakes and power steering
combine to make navigation and stopping easy. This high impact
street machine rolls on a set of American Racing Salt Flat specials
- 15" in front and 16" in back - that are wrapped with Falken tires
still showing plenty of tread.
This 1941 Ford Coupe Deluxe combines magnetic looks, a powerful,
yet dependable drivetrain and a very nicely finished interior. Call
