With its striking two-tone paint, blackened bumpers and tinted
windows, this 1948 Ford Coupe Restomod is one very cool ride. Its
extensive collection of exterior trim presents nicely and it rides
on a set of 16" blackened wheels with Ford-badged centers that tie
in perfectly with the rest of the exterior. Aesthetically speaking,
the Ford coupes from this era started life off ahead of the game,
as they were already plenty stylish in their native configuration,
and this one has seen the attention required to elevate its curb
appeal to a whole new level. Of course, the fact that this classic
is also outfitted with a well-chosen selection of modern mechanical
components to enhance its drivability is a big plus.
The interior is currently a work in progress. Think of it as a
blank slate that's ready to be transformed according to your
vision, whether that entails bringing it to top form in an
authentically vintage configuration or going for something more
adventurous. In either case, the dash area and steering column are
in fine shape and a glance around the cabin will convince you it's
structurally sound, so you'll be well on your way as you embark on
its reimagining. With its aftermarket climate control system
blowing nice and cold, you'll be able to drive this coupe in
comfort throughout the year once the upholstery is in place. Rest
assured that, based on running condition alone, it's ready to hit
the asphalt as soon as you bring it home.
A host of modern mechanical components affords this classic with a
strong level of drivability. It's powered by a fuel-injected
5.0-liter V8 that sits in a nicely maintained compartment,
surrounded by fresh belts and hoses. The engine has been outfitted
with a custom air intake to enhance its abilities, as well as to
add a bit of eye candy, and a sizable aluminum radiator now sits up
front, pairing with an electric fan to keep operating temperatures
in check. An added circa-millennial suspension brings with it
several benefits, including a refined ride that pairs well with
frequent driving, and power disc brakes at all four corners for
fade resistant stops.
