Vehicle Description
Welcome to StreetDreamsTexas as we celebrate our 22nd year in the
classic and muscle car business. The common configuration for the
cabriolet-style convertible coupes that emerged in the late 1920's
was two seats under the top and two more in an external rumble
seat. By the early 1930's some luxury makes offered 'convertible
phaeton' and 'convertible victoria' body styles that fully
enveloped rear seat passengers, but these were beyond the means of
the average American. Ford's 1936 cabriolet convertible, with all
four passengers under the top and starting at $675., once again
brought opulence within reach of the working man. This gorgeous
1936 Ford DeLuxe Club Cabriolet is an excellent example of this
rare (only 4616 produced) piece of automotive history. Purchased in
original condition (1999) by the current owner in Scottsdale, AZ,
this lightly restomoded classic is set up for comfortable, relaxed
cruising. The upgraded powertrain consists of a smooth and reliable
LT-1 350 V8 that passes the torque to a 4L60-E 4-speed automatic
transmission with overdrive, then back to a Ford rear end with 3.50
gears. Additional features include a Vega cross steering box, a
Super Bell 4 drop axle, front wheel disc brakes, Chassis
Engineering sway bar and leaf springs, a Tanks Inc. fuel tank with
in-tank pump, 1935 wire wheels, Flaming River steering column,
Stewart Warner gauges, Nu-Relics power windows, and Vintage Air
A/C. Obviously rare and stunning, this classic also runs and drives
beautifully, with a relaxed and effortless gait that encourages
long distance touring. Maybe you CAN buy class! Street Dreams
