Vehicle Description


1936 Ford Fordor Standard Sedan

Exterior

Original Henry Ford & Son sheet metal, this body features all

original glass and tracks, weather strip, bumpers, bonded rubber

running boards, soft roof, shared B pillar latched doors, deluxe

spare tire cover and shiny hinges for said trunk. Some additional

"deluxe" trim has been added to bling it up a tad. Throw on some

horizontal ribs on the cowled hood, grille surround, and hidden

black open horn bezels. Beautifully preserved gently curved chrome

bumpers with vertical bars to protect them on front and rear and we

are off to the rally. Included are black wall tires with black

wheels and moon caps with a chromed edge and a V8 badge in the

center. There are a few chip offs of the paint,mostly confined to

the edges near the rockers and lowers, and chrome has slight

dulling but it is original. No rust on this exterior steel.

Interior

Inside some TLC will be required as we note solid stitched lined

door panels which have some water damage. Original cranks and

actuators are on and appear in shiny condition. Inside more silk

tufted and tucked and wide rolled seats have several patches in

them from previous repairs. The seats retain their original shape

and are still solid and not saggy. This holds true for the rear

bench as well. The floors are not covered with any carpeting, and

show some surface and a little invasive rusting of the steel. The

dash is full metal jacket, painted brown and is very simply adorned

with warm cream colored round sweep gauges that are wonderfully

vintage. This also holds true for the large round bakelite steering

wheel with another V8 central badge. Above a mohair headliner is

still tight and shows aging and fading, but with no real obvious

faults with this field.

Drivetrain

Under the hood is the factory 221ci V8 flathead engine. It has a

single 2-barrel carburetor feeding it and it is sans air cleaner,

and in back is a 3-speed manual transmission. The rear axle weighs

in at 4.11. The engine and heads show surface rust and have gone

unrestored but some newer parts have been put on as you can see the

visual difference.

Undercarriage

A new black fuel tank sticks out in a field of heavily surface

rusted undercarriage framing, floor pans, and suspension with

mechanicals also surface rusted. Speaking of which we see

mechanical drum brakes all around and transverse leaf springs for

front and rear. A stock exhaust is installed. Despite the heavy

surface rust, there does not appear to be any invasive rust causing

any structural issues.

Drive-Ability

Having been in storage since 1968, some tinkering and mechanical

once overs will be required before youre off robbing banks and

outrunning the lawman.
