Mostly original. A nice old Ford in good condition. Flathead V8, 3 speed column shift trans. The fuel tank has been replaced so there are no rust issues. The body, floors and trunk are solid. The tires are in excellent condition. The paint is shiny and looks good everywhere. In the photos it looks perfect, but it isn't. There are minor chips and scratches but it is very presentable. Most of the trim is stainless and polishes up well, but some of it also has minor dings. The car starts, runs, drives and stops like a nice, stock 47 Ford should. The wipers and the fuel gauge do not work. They did two years ago when I bought the car. I'm thinking lack of use could be the problem. I have a clear Oregon title in my name. Cash only. No trades please. Call Gerry at 503-490-6379.
