This is a complete, unrestored, original California Woody, purchased last year from San Diego, now located on the East Coast. It has a Ford 239 CI Flathead 110 HP “EAB” V8, with 3-speed on the column. Shows 44,185 miles, actual mileage unknown. It is a driver, has a strong engine and good shifting trans/clutch. The starting system was properly converted to 12 volts with alternator. A complete set of correct replacement dash panels and knobs is included to replace dash parts. All sheet metal (fenders, hood, inner fenders, etc.) are solid, no rust-thru. Car was repainted sometime in life, shows overall surface patina, no signs of modification. All 3 seats and roof (w/padding) have been reupholstered in correct brown vinyl. New carpeting has also been installed. The body wood is original inside and out, with some repairs as shown in photos, and can be restored following woody restoration techniques or used as patterns for new wood. It has wider 1950 Mercury 15” wheels and hubcaps with almost new P235/75R15 radial tires. Also included is a correct metal spare tire cover, new hood springs, owner’s manual, sales brochures, and woody service bulletins.
The ’48 Ford is the iconic, most desirable of all woodies. This woody is ideal for easy maintenance to a dependable driver as is, or to restore with existing drive train and sheet metal, and original or new wood.
This is an ideal chance to get a complete, running, unmodified 48 Ford Woody Flathead V8 for much less than the lowest guide value, or minimal cost as a basis for full restoration.
