View attachment 3609234 I've had this for about 5 years. 20 months ago I had my shoulder replaced. As much as I love the car, I need something easier to steer. This I so traditional, I'd hate to stuff a Mustang II frontend under it. Details: 1935 Ford 3 window coupe. Original paint. Original hood and sidecovers removed and another hood was heavily louvered and installed. Original hood goes with it. There is a picture of it with the original hood and sidecovers in photo file. The rain trough is intact for rear window. There is a slight bit of rust through behind each door. Quite common and only visible when you look in trunk. 49? Mercury engine. Edelbrock heads. 2 deuce manifold. Big block chevy distributor with Petronix ignition. Walker radiator.5 speed transmission. 8" rear-end rebuilt with new 3:90 gears. Cruises at 70 in 5th. Dash powder coated black and period SW gauges installed. Ashtray removed and Sun tachometer installed. Seat reupholstered .Working wiper installed. Door panels are bare. I have the original panels for a template. Wheels are the original 35's with radials. Frontend was dropped a little with blocks. Valves adjusted recently. One NOS and one excellent 46-48 Ford drums installed on front. Front window cranks open. Rear window goes up and down. Possible delivery to Louisville NSRA meet. No trades. No need for brokers. Car is ***led in my name. Most work was done by Paul Kosma in Horn Lake ,MS. Like Dolly Parton said: "It costs a whole lot to look this cheap". I have more images
I recently stuck in a 39 box. Steering is a lot better. I also installed the original paint hood sidecovers. They still have the factory pinstriping. If you are coming to Good Guys in Bowling Green, Ky. this weekend, I'm close. I have my eye on something else.
I can meet you at Good Guys in Nashville. Buy it before someone puts a Mustang II front end and AC in it. I've recently installed the original side hood panels and a 38 Ford steering box.
