Vehicle Description
The 1937 Ford Slantback, also known as the 1937 Ford Model 78, is a
popular car model produced by Ford Motor Company in 1937. It was
part of the company's 1937 lineup and featured a distinctive
slanted rear design, which gave it a unique appearance compared to
other cars of that era.
This all-steel body 37 Slantback still has the metal that it left
the factory with in 1937. Finished in Merlot Burgundy exterior over
tan leather interior, the vehicle shines and will gather attention
at car shows and cruise nights.
The power is from a ZZ4 350ci Chevrolet Small Block crate V8 that
produces 355 horsepower. Fuel is delivered via a 4-barrel
carburetor with the exhaust exiting out stainless dual pipes.
Behind the ZZ4 is a THM 700R4 that provides smooth and responsive
shifts.
Suspension upgrades include TCI Mustang II style front suspension
with C4 Corvette Independent rear suspension with transverse leaf
spring all attached to modified factory frame rails.
Braking is done by four-wheel disc brakes and chrome 17" Cragar
aluminum wheels front & rear wrapped with Nitto tires help this 37
Ford handle. Steering comes by way of a power rack and pinion.
Once inside you will enjoy sitting on the incredible leather seats
and enjoy the comfort of modern air conditioning. Tunes are pumped
out of an AM-FM-CD-Stereo system. The entire vehicle has an updated
12-volt electrical system.
The Slantback body style was characterized by a sloping rear end,
where the trunk was integrated into the car's rear lines. This
design not only gave the car a more modern and streamlined look but
also provided practical benefits, such as increased trunk space and
improved aerodynamics.
Overall, the 1937 Ford Slantback is considered a classic and
sought-after model among collectors and vintage car enthusiasts,
reflecting the iconic design and engineering of its time.
