All steel 1939 Ford Standard Coupe street rod. Owner purchased the car in 1964 shortly after it appeared at the Washington D.C. armory World of Wheels car show where it won best of its class with an Oldsmobile engine. Since then the Coupe has gone through several transitions to its current condition today. It has NEVER had any rust or bondo.
NO TRADES
In 2000 a crate motor 305 c.i. Chevrolet and 700R4 transmission were added and for the next 8 years, the Ford logged approximately 10,000 miles attending various street rod events around the country.
Creature comforts were added such as an independent front end, power rack & pinion steering, A/C, power brakes (disc front & drum rear), and a Kenwood stereo system w/Bluetooth.
Then in 2008 the owner started to make some up to date changes such as, using a 1972 Pontiac Trans Am gauge cluster, and he just stopped and lost interest….the car sat idle in his garage for 10 years.
Over this past year every aspect of the car including the brakes, electrical, interior, exterior, and mechanical has been inspected and brought up to the condition you see it today.
It is a pleasure to drive and attracts attention wherever it goes. Has always been kept in a heated garage.
Below are the specifics.

PLEASE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE
I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for since 2002 and maintained a close to a 100% rating during most of that period. Around 2011 I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all of the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
