Vehicle Description
This 1935 Ford Model 48 Deluxe Roadster with a Rumble Seat is a
beautifully restored convertible that was owned by the same local
collector for the past 35+ years. Introduced in December of 1934 at
the New York Auto Show, the 1935 Fords received high acclaim for
their magnificent style and the Ford V8 Flathead motors became the
ultimate desire for anybody looking for some serious speed. Ford's
theme in 1935 was "Greater Beauty, Greater Comfort, and Greater
Safety," and most early V8 Ford collectors would have to agree. The
'35 Fords had a more cutting and sleeker appearance with their
narrower grilles and increased windshield angles. The Ford bodies
in 1935 were also longer, wider, and curvier giving them a more
updated look for the times. Ford produced just 4,896 Rumble Seat
Deluxe Roadsters, making this particular car a highly desirable and
rare example of an early Ford V8 car. This particular '35 Ford is
equipped with Ford's famous 221 Cubic Inch Flathead V8 with a
Stromberg 2 Barrel Carburetor that pushed out 85 horsepower in its
day. The Flatty V8 is mated up to 3 speed manual transmission with
a floor mounted shifter, giving this vintage Ford a truly classic
feel. For a 1935 Ford, this Model 48 is well-optioned classic. The
front and rear chrome bumpers are both outfitted with bumper
guards. A rear mounted luggage rack is also a nice option so that
you can take your belongings with you on longer or overnight
cruises. This 1935 Ford Rumble Seat Roadster sits on 4 Wide
Whitewall Bias-Ply tires that are wrapped around bright green
painted wire wheels, which give this V8 Ford a nice classic look.
The tan canvas top is manually operated and gives the car nice
contrast going down the road. The Bright Apple Green exterior paint
gives this classic Ford a stunning exterior look. The brown vinyl
bench seat, along with the rear Rumble seat are in fantastic shape.
The dash, door panels, and banjo steering wheel are also in superb
condition. The dash is equipped with a 100 MPH speedometer, oil
pressure gauge, fuel gauge, amp gauge, temperature gauge, and AM
radio. Whether you're looking for your first classic car or you
have a garage full of V8 Fords, this 1935 Ford Model 48 Deluxe
Roadster with a Rumble Seat is the car for you. Give us a call
