For Sale: 1946 Ford Coupe in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway classic cars of Nashville is proud to digitally present this 1946 Ford Business coupe. This Coupe has had every modification that would have been completed in the late 50's. This car brings back long forgotten terms like, Frenched, shaved and louvered not to mention pinstripe. Where to start, how about the paint? Well, everyone likes a nice shiny car, but the brave soul who picked this color and a satin finish needs an award. It looks better in person than a photo could possibly show. This brave choice was then turned over to a master pin striper and he signed his work on the trunk in the tiniest letters; 'Harris 2KX'. The pin-striping is tasteful across the entire vehicle, sweeping across the louvered hood and down the middle of the trunk, around the taillights and head lights which are frenched in. Even the air filter cover which is Cadillac style, carries the wonderful fluid lines of the striping master. Now this piece of art sits on and Edelbrock 4-barrel Carb and performer intake. All this to feed a healthy 350 cubic in Chevy small block. The fires of which are being lit by a Mallory Unilite distributor and the waste leaves the engine through Hedman headers and flowmeter exhaust. Backing this snappy small block is a turbo 350 3 speed automatic transmission that provides firm shifts. The suspension is adjustable coil overs front and rear. The rear axle tubes are held firmly in place with a 4 link and panhard bar. Stopping is handled with power disc up front and drum in the rear. I hope I have impressed on you how firm, tight and right this car is, it has impressed me and I am becoming jaded.
