Vehicle Description
This 1936 Ford Model 68 Deluxe Convertible is an outstanding
example of the breed, restored to a standard seldom seen on these
cars. Of the nearly 20,000 open body cars Ford sold that year, just
5,601 were convertibles, which were among the most expensive of the
range. This example was discovered my Ford expert Jack Hogan, who
purchased it from the long-time owner from Pocatello, Idaho. During
Mr. Hogan's ownership, the car received the exacting restoration it
currently wears. Thanks to meticulous care this Ford remains in
superb condition today. It is finished in a lovely shade of Armory
Green over saddle leather interior and a light tan top. The factory
deluxe wheels wear Firestone double whitewalls to round out the
outstanding presentation. Shortly after the restoration, this Ford
earned its AACA Senior award in a national competition and it
racked up an impressive number of special awards including the
Grand National Dearborn Award and several Dearborn Emeritus
Awards.
