Vehicle Description
An eager, well-equipped powerplant anchors the drivetrain, while
loads of classic curb appeal teams with a comfortable interior to
make this 1930 Ford Tudor Sedan a compelling opportunity.
Encountering a streetrod with the ability to pull focus certainly
isn't something all that novel in itself, but the finished
appearance and reassuringly strong running condition on display
here really does make this cruiser something special.
This Ford's arrow straight, ultra clean appearance combines with
seemingly endless vintage style to make for quite a sight when it
hits the boulevard. It's wearing a coat of silver metallic paint
with just the right amount of flake added to give it proper texture
and with just a little buffing out, this car will shine like a
diamond. There are no blemishes or dings of note anywhere on board
and the quality of the hand-painted burgundy pinstripes surrounding
the cabin is truly something to behold. There are some great
details on display throughout the exterior - the stainless steel
grille and generously proportioned Ford headlights are in top form,
and the vented 3-piece hood blends in perfectly as it transitions
into the cabin just behind it. The black canvas top above has a
fresh look that suggests it was fairly recently added.
Inside awaits a very welcoming cockpit - a good find in a niche not
necessarily known for interior comfort. Lower yourself into the
burgundy velour seat at its center and you'll notice right away how
well padded it is and its well-fitted cover remains in top
condition. Take a glance around the cabin - it's nice and broad,
making for lots of shoulder room inside and there's also plenty of
space separating the two rows of seating. To each side, the door
panels are flush to their frames and just below the expanse of
matching carpet is accented by a billet emergency brake. Up front,
a beefy woodgrain steering wheel sits on a tilting column with
billet knobs and the dash area in front of it features a set of SW
gauges recessed into the instrument panel, surrounded by smooth
silver steel. A Sony AM/FM/iPod stereo is on board, teaming with DB
speakers in the kick panels to provide a strong audio experience
offering an abundance of content options.
This '30s classic runs great and offers that exhilarating level of
power you've come to expect in a car like this. The 350 cubic inch
V8 beneath the hood is an eager powerplant - equipped with a 4
barrel Edelbrock carb on top of a Weiand intake, it pulls with
plenty of vigor while sending a nice deep note out of its side exit
exhausts, while the added HEI ignition ensures both quick starts
and maximum spark. The engine pairs with an automatic 700r4
transmission whose overdrive gear brings RPMs down at highway
speeds and a pair of electric cooling fans have been installed to
keep operating temperatures in check. With a 4-link suspension now
in place in back, this vintage Ford cruises with squeak free ease
and suffers no binding around corners. Front disc brakes help
provide fade resistant stopping power as this stare inducer rules
the road on its set of 15" steel wheels with Ford chrome center
caps. Below, the rock-solid undercarriage is just another factor
that makes this streetrod well-positioned for many more future
miles of driving enjoyment.
The combination of sheer aesthetics and willing power of this 1930
Ford Tudor Sedan really set it apart from the crowd. If you're
looking for a ride that demands attention while providing a
compelling yet worry-free experience behind the wheel, this is one
to definitely check out. Call today!
