History Of Ford's Super Deluxe Convertible Model:
Styling was fresh for the 1941 Ford with wider front fenders,
headlights were further apart, a bigger front grille with tall
center section of vertical bars flanked by a smaller grille on each
side. The 221ci V8 supplied 90 horsepower and was made available in
three model series now branded Special, Deluxe and Super Deluxe.
These new 1941 Fords also had larger rear fenders and a more
stylish roofline. The wheelbase grew from 112 to 114 inches with
overall length stretching to 194.3 inches. It became a little
heftier as well gaining 150 pounds with a stronger X-frame chassis
underneath, along with softer suspension springs, finally providing
the Ford a more balanced road feel often reserved for much more
expensive vehicles. This larger profile, combined with smaller
running boards, also increased interiors dimensions dramatically
allowing the front seat a substantial increase in width of seven
more inches. The top end Super Deluxe models features included
bright trim on the windshield, running boards, front and rear
fenders, rear and side windows, wheel trimmings and chrome grille
sections. Super Deluxe script was placed on the inboard position of
the driver side front fender as special recognition. Today, they
are recognized as one of the best road-going, pre-war vehicles
collectors desire for touring and weekend cruising. All Ford
convertibles produced were dressed in Super Deluxe trim.
