For Sale: 1938 Ford Tudor in Concord, North Carolina

Authentic, sleek, and classic flathead V8 power - people will take their time appreciating this 1938 Ford Tudor because it has been given the right mix of preservation and a few key upgrades to continue being a classic solid cruiser.

This car has a classic look with rounded fenders, a pointed hood, teardrop headlights, chrome bumpers, and a two-piece windshield. It's the overall style that makes you love the late 1930s machines. And the way the streaks of the grille run deeply into the hood sides is an art deco touch only found this year. Gray is an ageless color, so it fits the design like a '38 Ford quite nicely. The paint is a fresher application later in life, so a good gloss and shine help show off rather straight body panels. And we love the two-tone wheels with two-piece wheel covers and whitewalls. It shows they were thoughtful about the full setup, right down to the details. The total impression is stylish and complete, but nothing will make you too nervous to drive it around town on a Sunday. And that's the proper feeling for this car because it still likes to get out there and get seen.

Just like the exterior, the tan interior feels authentic while correctly upgraded. So the cloth upholstery looks vintage, but you can tell it was upgraded later in life. It's nothing new or fancy but it adds comfort and seatbelts for a better cruiser. There is room for improvement in the details, but you already have a ton of classic appeal in place, including a classic three-spoke steering wheel, art Deco gauges, and AM radio that's there for display.

Under the hood is Ford's 221 cubic-inch flathead motor. This V8 is an icon of robustness, so a good shadetree tune-up lets you dial in if you want it to feel a little more like a Sunday cruiser or a Bonnie & Clyde getaway car. And no matter how you enjoy it, you'll appreciate the electrical upgrade with a 12-volt system, alternator, and electric fan. Plus, the three-speed manual transmission gives you full control over this cool vintage car.

This has a true vintage flair that's perfect for nostalgia or the solid base you need for a show-stopping build. So if you truly appreciate classic motoring, don't miss this deal. Call now!
