Vehicle Description
This 1936 Ford Cabriolet offers a beautiful journey back in time,
capturing the elegance and ingenuity of pre-war American automotive
design. Powered by its 3.6L Flathead V8 engine paired with a
3-speed sliding mesh manual transmission, this Cabriolet delivers a
driving experience that embodies Ford's 1930s craftsmanship.
Single-family owned since 1958, the car has been a cherished piece
of family history, meticulously maintained and preserved over the
decades. The exterior is finished in a classic blue, which retains
a rich luster and accentuates the graceful lines and curves of the
body. Adding to its timeless look, the brightwork shines brightly,
including the period-correct Ford greyhound hood ornament, while
the original hubcaps remain intact, providing an authentic
touch.
Inside, the Cabriolet's tan interior invites you to experience true
vintage comfort. The upholstery is in generally good condition,
with one notable tear on the front seat, a reflection of its
journey through time, but it comes with a complete front seat kit,
making it ready for restoration without compromising its
originality. The 9-ball shifter brings an extra touch of nostalgic
charm, and the rumble seat in the back provides additional seating,
perfect for open-air drives shared with friends or family.
Recent replacements of the hydraulic brakes ensure reliable
stopping power, and the emergency brake is fully functional, a rare
feature that showcases the car's thorough upkeep. The 3.6L Flathead
V8 is as responsive and smooth as ever, while the 3-speed manual
transmission adds to the authentic feel of driving a true classic.
The attention to maintenance and preservation is evident in every
detail of this Ford, from its mechanical preservation to its
well-preserved exterior and interior features.
With a single-family ownership history dating back to 1958, this
Ford Cabriolet has a provenance that few cars from this era can
claim. It's rare to find such an unbroken line of care and respect,
making it a truly exceptional find for vintage enthusiasts and
collectors alike. A testament to the golden age of American cars,
this 1936 Ford Cabriolet is ready to be driven, admired, and
appreciated by its next caretaker. Please call or email with any
