For Sale: 1938 Ford Cabriolet in Lithia Springs, Georgia

Vehicle Description

In 1938, Ford produced only 7,174 Cabriolets, making this '38 Ford a rare find. This particular example elevates the classic design with its Harvest Moon paint, a color borrowed from Volkswagen's palette. The sleek body lines flow from the iconic grille to the curvaceous rear, showcasing mostly original Henry Ford steel, save for the fiberglass rear fenders. Chrome accents punctuate the exterior, while a burgundy cloth convertible top adds a nice contrast. Riding on 15-inch wheels, this Ford cuts an impressive figure on the road. The two-piece windshield maintains a vintage touch, blending seamlessly with the more modern upgrades.

Inside, the burgundy vinyl interior beckons with a blend of vintage charm and modern comfort. Bucket seats offer supportive seating, while the floor-mounted shifter adds a sporty touch. The dash houses Beede gauges, providing clear readouts of vital information. An AM/FM single CD player, iPod compatible, supplies the tunes for cruising. Air conditioning ensures comfort on even the hottest days, making this Ford a true all-season ride.

Powering this classic is a robust 302 V8 engine, paired with a smooth-shifting 4-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay showcases a Holley carburetor atop an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold, flanked by Ford Racing valve covers. Shorty headers feed into a dual exhaust system, producing a satisfying rumble. The Heidts Mustang II front suspension and rear leaf springs with shocks provide a comfortable ride, while power disc brakes up front and power drums in the rear ensure confident stopping power.
