Vehicle Description
This restored 1950 Ford two-door sedan is powered by a custom flathead V8 connected to dual carburetors and a three-speed manual transmission. Features include manual steering and brakes, a spotlight, a windshield visor, BFGoodrich Silvertown tires, and a lowered suspension. Finished in metallic light turquoise over a gray vinyl and cloth interior, this Ford is available now and comes with uninstalled wheels, wire hub caps, and side skirts; previous auction paperwork; and a clear Indiana title in the seller’s name.
Under previous ownership, the car was restored and repainted in metallic light turquoise. Features include chrome bumpers with bumper guards, a chrome grille, headlight bulb shields, a color-matched windshield visor, a spotlight, a shaved trunk lid, and dual taillights with blue dots.
A set of polished aluminum Rocket Racing Strike wheels with bullet center caps and mounting lugs is wrapped in BFGoodrich Silvertown whitewall tires.
The front seat is upholstered with gray vinyl and a gray striped cloth seating area. Features include a full-width black vinyl floor covering in the front with black carpeted floor mats and black carpeting in the rear with black vinyl floor mats. Additional features include gray vinyl door pads with cloth inserts, manual windows, manual steering and brakes, a metallic gray steel dashboard with a metallic light turquoise insert, an AM radio, a column-mounted three-speed manual shifter, and a white two-spoke steering wheel with a chrome horn ring.
A 100-mph speedometer and readouts for the fuel level, oil pressure, temperature, and battery are located in a combination gauge panel ahead of the driver. A clock is located in the center of the dashboard above the radio. With 500 miles added during current ownership, the odometer reads 78,367 miles, but the true mileage on this vehicle is unknown.
Power is provided by a Ford flathead V8 engine backed by a three-speed manual transmission. Engine accessories include finned heads with chrome acorn nuts, an aftermarket intake with dual carburetors, chrome air cleaners, a remote oil filter, and a chrome breather cap.
This Ford sedan was factory-equipped with an independent front suspension and a solid rear drive axle. The suspension has been modified with a two-inch drop on the front suspension and the addition of four-inch lowering blocks in the rear. A full-length dual-exhaust system exits at the rear.
