Gateway Classic Cars Houston showroom is pleased to offer for sale
this awesome Concord Purple 1939 Ford Cabriolet. While, according
to information from its owner, it does have a Gibbons fiberglass
body, its fenders and hood are steel. The grill is from a '40 Ford,
and the underpinnings consist of a modified 1st-gen Mustang front
end, and a C3 Corvette's IRS out back, so not only does this bad
boy have a really cool look to it, it also has 4-wheel independent
suspension and 4-wheel power disc brakes! This beast goes (and
stops) as nicely as it looks! The removable convertible top is
covered in high grade canvas, which looks almost unused. With a
power-operated rumble seat out back, you have room for an extra two
passengers - perfect for putting the Mayor out back for his parade!
Under the hood is a potent small block Chevy engine, displacing 350
cubic inches and hosting a mild performance cam. Topped by an
Edelbrock carb and Weiand aluminum intake, and fitted with shorty
headers and dual exhaust, this '39 Ford Cabriolet sets the stage
for some fun driving. Backing the V8 is a Turbo 350 3-speed
automatic transmission, which spins the 3.08 gears in the Corvette
rear end. The car sits on BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, which are
nicely staggered (P195/60R15 up front, P225/70R15 out back) and
wrap around the aluminum Boyds 5-spoke mags, giving it a classic
hot rod stance. The interior features a synthetic leather and tweed
motif, with front buckets out of a late '90's Mustang. There is a
full set of VDO gauges, including oil pressure, water temperature,
speedo, tach, voltmeter, and quartz clock, all sequestered nicely
in a gorgeous Wabbits wood dash. Tunes are provided by a Pioneer
AM/FM/CD/MP3 head unit in the center console, which also features
the switches for the power windows, HVAC controls, and headlight
and wiper switches. The LeCarra billet steering wheel sits on a
tilt/telescoping steering column, so the driver will find plenty of
adjustment capability to get the pilot's environment fitted
perfectly. You'll have to search high and low to find another '39
Ford Cabriolet with this many features, and you'll probably not be
able to find one with such a sweet suspension setup! Additional
features and options on this 1939 Ford Cabriolet for sale include
Air Conditioning, Aluminum Wheels, AM/FM/CD/MP3 Radio, Cloth with
Synthetic Leather seating, Manual (removable) Convertible Top,
Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Windows, Radial Tires, and
Seatbelts (for the front passengers). For more information on this
