Ford Sedan Flathead V8 1941
General description :
1941 Ford Sedan This 1941 Ford Sedan is a nice survivor car that is all original and unrestored. It would make a great restoration project whether you choose to restore it to original or transform it into a street rod. The body is solid and rust free. It is painted in the original Blue paint and is topped with all the original style trim pieces. All of the chrome/trim is straight but has lost some of its original shine. The glass is all there with the split two piece windshield up front. Blue steel wheels getting the car rolling and it comes with the original hubcaps which were not in place in the pictures. Powering the car is the original Flathead V8 motor topped with a 2 barrel carb and oil bath air cleaner. The motor does turn over and run but it needs some TLC to get it running smoothly. A 3 speed manual transmission is paired with the motor and utilizes a column shifter. The interior has the original look and is in surprisingly good condition considering its age. There aren't any tears in the upholstery or even major stains which is pretty common on the older lightly colored material. The dash, column and window trim is painted in a copper color and all of the original gauges and knobs are mounted in place. The only things missing from the car is a gas tank and battery but ones were hooked up recently to get it running. SOLD

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
