****The proceeds from this vehicle sale will be donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The owner of this vehicle restored this 1951 Custom and enjoyed it thoroughly for several years. However, every time he saw the children at St. Jude's cross his television screen, he desperately wanted to help. More than just a few dollars, he wanted to make a significant contribution to this cause that so struck his heart. Giving the proceeds from the sale of this vehicle is exactly the kind of generous act that makes the work at St. Jude's possible. This is a wonderful cause and a great reason to buy a car.**********
Up for sale is a 1951 Ford Custom with what we believe to be 41,800 original miles. The vehicle was redone about 5 years ago with new interior and painted in black with black and white trimmed interior. The original suspension is stock but has been maintained with new bushings and shocks. The original engine and fuel pump work well but an electric fuel pump was added for easier starting. The transmission is a 3 spd with an overdrive and it has the 239 cubic inch V8.
The temperature gauge is not working. There is an AM/FM cassette player in the glove box that works well via a power inverter converting power from 6 to 12 volts. It has brand new tire 225 75R15 radials. The trunk mat, spare tire, and jack are all present in the trunk.
As you can see from the video, the car runs well and moves well under it's own power. The seller has driven the vehicle on regular occasions around town. This would make a great first classic car or an addition to your collection. The car has been enjoyed and it's now time for a new owner to love her and put some miles on her. Please feel free to call or email with any questions.
