Vehicle Description
This 1936 Ford Humpback is like turning back the clock. Any work
within the last 85+ years has all been about keeping an authentic
style. So you'll love everything from the flathead V8 to the feel
of the thin steering wheel. It makes for a detail-oriented
time-capsule classic.
This is a dignified car. The black paint comes from an older
application that has a kind of aged-in maturity that some may
mistake for a respected survivor. So while you can always use the
value price to invest in a piano black respray, it's hard to beat
the look of a barn find kind of maturity. And this also shows a
respected life with the good body lines that give this the look of
decades of care. Plus, the bumpers, grille, hood ornament, and all
the other brightwork details are bright with a touch of patina for
a very complete classic. There are also nice details, like the
two-piece wheel covers, whitewall tires, rear-mounted spare, and
wraparound red pinstripe.
Open the door and you'll see the seats, door panels, and headliner
have been refreshed more recently with a great-looking cloth. So
there are going to be plenty of family and friends who will
appreciate a ride in a true vintage car with this level of comfort.
There are even updated floor mats up front to make it easy to
invite a passenger. Everything else has a great vintage motoring
atmosphere - from the feeling of the large three-spoke steering
wheel to the long shifter to the look of the factory gauge panel.
No one has tried to spoil this time machine atmosphere with bulky
aftermarket parts or LED lights. So it's exactly what you want when
looking for a time-machine level of a distinct classic.
Under the hood is a 221 cubic-inch flathead V8. It's an iconic
motor that earned Ford its powerful reputation. You can tell there
has been attention here to make sure it looks as vintage as the
rest of the car, right down to the oil bath air cleaner. But what
we particularly like is it has also been well-maintained to remain
a strong runner. Plus, the smooth-shifting three-speed, solid
manual brakes, and quite a comfortable ride.
This is the classic Ford that has been kept an authentic classic
and a true cruiser. So if you love driving genuine classics, this
1930s Ford should be at the top of your list. Call now!
