1947 Ford Tudor Custom Cars started getting faster and the looks drastically changed. Suddenly, the completely separated fenders were more fused into the body, giving the cars a more streamlined look. The humpback body style became popular and similar to what you would see in a lot of old mobster movies. This 1947 Ford is no different having one of the coolest looks out there. This car came from a private collector and was extremely well done and looks much more luxurious and sleek nowadays than it looked back in 47. The steel body is painted in a custom Grey metallic and was very well done. The custom grey metallic paint looks great and is accented with all the bright chrome. Down the side of the car is a very clean stainless accent that is straight and in great condition. The front grill is unique for the cars of these years. The headlights and taillights on the car have been “frenched”, which drastically changed the look. The ’47 had a frame-off restoration which makes it one of the nicest out there. This car has an awesome appearance rolling down the road and turns heads everywhere you drive it. The ‘47 sits on beautifully polished chrome wheels that are wrapped with fresh (P195/65 R15-front, P225/70 R15-rear) BF Goodrich radial tires. This car is very dependable and has the drive train to back up that statement. It was constructed with only the best so not only will it last but it runs extremely well. The 302 V8 with fuel injection packs plenty of power and has a Ford AOD automatic with overdrive. All brackets and engine components are detailed and nicely polished with all hoses nicely routed. The power brake booster is chrome to match the engine, and the entire engine compartment is painted to match the rest of the car. Power steering is also in place. The rear on the Ford is a 9" rear end (3:55 gear ratio). A Mustang front suspension is in place which is a top of the line unit that works perfectly under this style of car. The Ford AOD automatic transmission shifts nice and smooth. The interior of the car is beautifully done and looks like it belongs in a modern luxury vehicle. It is all done in deep red leather and is in perfect condition. The carpet looks new and shows very little use. The front bucket power seats are from a Mercury Montego and are very comfortable as is the back bench-seat which is from an Impala. The dash is all new and has new gauges and wiring from Painless Systems and is very cool and all custom. The console is covered in red leather as well and sits nicely between the bucket seats. The center console has the Vintage air conditioning which blows cold, the new Clarion AM/FM/CD stereo system which supplies great sound. The Ididit tilt steering column is painted to match the car and is topped with a custom polished steering wheel. The ‘47 is also equipped with power windows, power seats, electric doors, electric trunk and has tinted glass.
