1941 Ford...underappreciated?

You think 41's have issues?? check out the 38's.......the invisible ford!!
ud

 

Randy Harrison's '41 (built by Sam Foose in the '80s):

​

 

Here is one that we thought we would have some fun with... But it turned into a LONG LONG process. I would not do it again. I decided to customize because... well... I really think the sedans are kinda pregnant lookin in stock condition.

 

Hey I resent that, portly maybe but pregnant!!!!!

 

This is one bad ass ride!!!!

 

That one used to be/is owned by Jerry who does roll s& pleats.

Must still be somewhere in Europe

 

I'm so ashamed of my sidepipes now.

 

Lately, I've started running Packard hubcaps, just for a change, and a hoot! pigpen

 

Thanks! We have a lot of fun with it and have put over 15,000 miles on it since getting it running.

 

What he said...

 

Tail Dragger by Winfield.

 

Ford could only go one direction after the 1940 model. I am not a fan of the 41 some days, then kinda like them others. I dont really know how I feel about them. I like the 41 woodie.

 

Damnit, you guys are making me miss my '41!

 

Rikster has lots of pics of customized '41 Fords in his Custom Car Photo Archive ... just click the thumbnail to open it:

 

This is how mine looks right now.

 

favorite custom ever..

 

Here's mine I really like the looks of the 41's





Just got it this past summer drove the hell out of it now it's getting some work done to it - want to have it on the road by spring.

 

The '41 has not been underappreciated in our family. My Grandpa bought it new and passed it down to my Mom, who has passed it on to me!

 

Seems like most folks tend to make Customs out of them, so I built a Hot Rod;

 

love this pic!!!^^^^^^

 

Thanks I do too. A friend took that and I have an 8x10 on the wall in the garage and computor room

 

This car is so sweet. I fell in love with 41 ford coupes when I was 15 years old and always wanted one. I got a 41 sedan about ten years ago and i will probably always have it...............but i still long to have one of those sweet looking coupes.....I may have to start looking again! P.S. I'm 59 years young so I still have plenty of time!!!!!

 

Thanks Ratrod Stevie. I'm 66 now, I was 48 when I bought the coupe to build

 

gotta love them '41s

 

With all these pics and talk the price of a 41 is about to go up. They were THE car to customize at one time. Love 'em

 

Heres the "start" of mine....

 

Nice job!Looks killer!

 

My dad had a black `41 Business Coupe just before he joined the Navy around `50- `51. Said it was his favorite car as a kid. Hauled ass all over the Adirondak mountains where he lived with it. Had to get rid of it when he left. I had to have one just like it and finally I got one. Here's mine......

 

I built this in around 1992. Not too HAMB friendly today.....tweed interior, graphics etc.. but a good car nonetheless
