Vehicle Description

There's something special about the 1935 Ford Tudor sedan. It debuted a new styling that combined the traditional upright grille with a streamlined body, to create one of the best-looking cars of the period. So it seems quite special to find one that looks bold and sleek white still staying so faithful to the pre-war design.

Many of these tudor sedans have been turned into hot rods over the years, but this one is more about an honest 1930s experience. The gently rounded fenders with their peaked crease through the middle, the highly detailed hood vents, and the rear-mount spare tire have all been transported intact from 1935. And it's all finished in an elegant that has enough gloss to really attract attention to this Henry Ford steel. And the brighter green pinstripe adds a bold high-class style, especially with the wire wheels done to match. All the original brightwork is intact - from the neatly dipped bumpers to the original door handles. It even still has the big, bold V8 logo on top of the grille to lead the way.

The interior looks thoroughly original right down to the gray mohair fabric on the seats and doors. Ford's advertisements in 1935 praised the "Center-Poised" seat position, for the easy-riding comfort, and today we'd just call it nicely plush. Even for its age, this car is a great cruiser. Your hands fit nicely into grooves of the classic steering wheel. Every button, dial, and knob is period-correct to make this Ford feel like a time machine.

Open the hood, and the honest feeling continues. The 221 cubic-inch flathead motor is the ionic V8 that earned Ford its powerful reputation. This one is ready to tell that story because it has a fresh and clean presentation that lets people know there was a big investment here. This one has been dressed correctly to tell everyone at the car show that it's more about being a '30s machine than a hot rod. There's a similar situation with the exhaust that still makes that unmistakable flathead sound - a tune that you won't be able to get enough of as you row through the three-speed manual transmission.

This one is shiny enough to attract everyone at the car show and original enough to earn their respect. It's time to get your hands on an exceptionally well-preserved 1930s Ford. Call today!!!
