Vehicle Description
This incredible 1947 Ford Custom roadster is the kind of full
custom build that most of us only dream of owning. A streamlined
exterior, a full custom leather interior, and plenty of V8 power
makes this an all-eyes-on-me street rod.
This paint loves to attract immediate attention. The orange/copper
color has a deep clearcoat luster that has a slippery look. This is
important, because the whole car was custom built to be a very
sleek machine. You see it in the super-straight body that has a
modern appearance where its only trim is a long strip running the
profile. And we love the expertly deleted bumpers that allow you to
really see the custom color-matched grille and awesomely rounded
rear. And the details were sweated, too. It has a modern appearance
with features like the flush-mounted headlights, chopped
windshield, shaved door handles, sport mirrors, and frenched
taillights. And those bright Coys 17-inch alloys are true standouts
to compete this unique package. So this has the look of a slick,
straight, and total custom where you know there was a ton invested
to make sure it's a one-of-a-kind machine.
Ron Mangus is a legend in hot rod custom interiors, you know that
you're going to love showcasing this award-worthy supple leather
presentation. Everyone has individual bucket seats. And there are
more great details, like the suicide doors and cup holders expertly
integrated. Just like the exterior, this one has been built to be
sleek and fully coordinated. That's why the exterior color returns
to highlight custom pieces like the smooth door tops and clean dash
with a hint of the exterior trim. And it's easy to get comfortable
in the driver's seat with a Budnik steering wheel mounted on a tilt
column, and beyond that, you have a crisp set of Dolphin
gauges.
The engine bay is the only part of this car that's finished in
anything dark, but that's for a very good reason. The black inner
walls make the polished components of the V8 really pop. And again,
this is a detail-oriented presentation with the exterior orange in
the ridges of the valve covers. More than just look great, this is
a hardy 350 cubic-inch V8 that has been upgraded with an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor, aluminum intake, and Hooker shorty headers
feeding the dual exhaust. Even the undercarriage photos prove this
is a clean and low-mileage build. And while you're checking those
out, you'll also spot upgrades like the QA1 adjustable coilovers,
updated independent front end, and triangulated four-link rear with
tubular arms and a sway bar. Power steering, power brakes w/discs
up front, and three-speed automatic transmission are all there to
make sure it's easy to show off this custom everywhere.
Complete with maintenance records, this is the detail-oriented
custom that will keep people talking. So if you love attention and
awards, don't miss this roadster. Call today!!!
