Two rows of bench seats, side panels, and carpeting are all in good condition. The three-spoke steering wheel and three-on-the-tree transmission means taking control of this classic is an easy affair.The 239 cubic-inch flathead V8 really needs no introduction, and you'll be quite happy to know it appears that this coupe originally came with the V8 upgrade. The engine bay is as honest as the rest of this vintage Ford. The carb shows signs of good maintenance, as do the plug wires, voltage regulator, and other essential components. On the road it provides a wonderful punch and a great soundtrack. The three-speed manual transmission shifts easily, and provides good power for getting to car cruises or gatherings with ease.Here's a classic with a great history and a good price.
