For Sale: 1939 Ford Business Coupe in Lutz, Florida

Vehicle Description

This 1939 Ford 5-Window Business Coupe has a sleek look and well-integrated upgrades, like air conditioning. But the real reason why you're going to find it absolutely irresistible is the very vintage package also has a fresh fuel-injected V8 heart!


The business coupes like this were always a moonshiner favorite. After all, the big trunks were ready to carry the best in outlaw liquor. And so these were all about looking inconspicuously stock to hide the true performance within. That's why this one was restored to just look like a crisp and clean classic. Great body lines, rubber-top running boards, and doors that close with confidence make this a nice classic Ford. And there's plenty of gleaming brightwork on the bumpers, grille, and full-length trim. It's all wrapped in a glossy black that makes this business coupe as respectable as a business suit. So with all its classically good looks, maybe Johnny Law might not pick up on hints like the LED taillights that can light up a country road better or how the classic whitewalls have an extra meaty set in the rear. Of course, that louvered hood is a true sign of something powerful within.


The appeal of the interior is as clear as black and white, because the two-tone is both stylish and fresh. It's thoughtfully intertwined so that details like the tuck and roll style pattern of the seat inserts are also matched on the door panels and kick plates. And the faux wood trim adds even more style to this well-done package. There are great upgrades for comfort, like the Kenwood AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth, USB, and large 6x9 speakers. And the air conditioning blows cold with modern R134a refrigerant. It's also a great driver where the classic-style steering wheel is mounted on a tilt column. This gives you a great view of the full black-lit VDO gauge package. And the EFI controller mounted on the dash is a big clue at something special under the hood.


The fresh look of the engine bay is no accident. We have a receipt from just a few months ago that documents thousands $$$$ invested in setting up a new 350 cubic-inch crate V8 for ideal all-around performance. That means power upgrades like an Edelbrock Performer intake and wrapped headers. Plus, the Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection gives you the kind of control over your performance that they could have only dreamed of in 1939. And everything from the belts to the Walker aluminum radiator are fresh in this strong total package. As you look underneath this coupe, you'll see the clean look of a quality restoration. And don't forget to spot terrific upgrades, like the Speedway front end, sharp Flaming River steering, and Ford 9-inch limited-slip rear. There's even a new three-speed automatic transmission and power brakes with front discs to makes this classic a fine modern cruiser.


This is the cool classic that has big investments to be a modern and comfortable moonshiner. So if you love high-quality distinction, call today!
