THIS A BEAUTIFUL SOLID CLEAN 51 FORD THAT NEEDS VERY LITTLE. THE OWNER WAS A MECHANIC FOR 25 YEARS AND LOVED THIS CAR. IT WAS HIS BABY AND HE BUILT IT WITH LOVE.
Newly rebuilt Ford V-8 Flathead with Edelbrock Aluminum Heads matched torare original Offenhauser intake Manifold powered by 2 rebuilt carbs model 59(these parts are rare and all period correct and original no repo parts), New 4 speed manual transmission with a top of line Hurst floor Shifter, Rebuilt original rear end, new brakes, new suspension, new driveshaft(speed balanced with all new yokes and u-joints), upgraded to 12 volt charging system. Radiator redone, all new hoses, new belts, new water pump, starter...basically everything was replaced or rebuilt. The car has a nice exhaust system with slim side pipes running along the rockers. This is a great example of a classic Shoe Box Hot Rod that is a usable dependable car.
MANY EXTRAS INCLUDED:
BRAND NEW IN THE BOX CARPET, SEAT COVERS, EXTRA BRAKES, EXTRA MANUAL TRANS AND MORE(THESE SPARE PARTS ARE IN FINE SHAPE). HUBCAPS....MUCH MORE.
Black headliner is done and looks good, New door panels are done also in black(NEW IN BOX STORED IN THE HOUSE). The seats will need to be recovered(but are in decent original condition..the seat springs and frames are perfect). I may include all new foam and seat covers that I have...we can work it out depending on selling price.
THE CAR CURRENTLY DOES NOT RUN AS THE FUEL WAS DRAINED PRIOR TO STORAGE AND FUEL LINES DRAINED TO PREVENT BLOCKAGE AND SLUDGE DURING STORAGE. YOU WILL NEED TO RECONNECT THE FUEL LINES FROM FROM FUEL PUMP TO CARBS AND BUY A NEW BATTERY. I WOULD ALSO CHANGE THE OIL PRIOR TO STARTING. I WOULD SAY IN A WEEKEND THIS CAR WILL BE READY FOR USE.
HARD TO FIND SOLID CLEAN SOLID WEST COST CAR WITH ALL ORIGINAL BODY PANELS, CLEAN TRUNK PAN AND FLOORS / FRAME, FIREWALL, ROCKERS, DOORS, DOOR MOUNTS ALL SOLID CLEAN NO ISSUES OR REPAIRS OF ANY KIND SOLID SOLID SOLID.
THE BLUE PAINT AND STRIPES PAINT IS PERIOD HOT ROD CORRECT AND IN GOOD DRIVER QUALITY SHAPE. ALL THE GLASS IS CLEAN AND WINDOWS WORK FINE. THE BODY LINES ARE CLEAN AND ALL PANELS FIT AS ORIGINAL. DOORS CLOSE PERFECTLY.
AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES THE CAR WILL NEED VERY LITTLE ASSEMBLY(GRILL, BOLT HOOD BACK ON(HOOD LINKAGE AND RELEASE IS IN PLACE) STEERING WHEEL(WAS REMOVED TO RESTORE AND IS IN GREAT SHAPE JUST NEED TO BOLT BACK ON), FEW OTHER MINOR BOLT ON ITEMS(TURN SIGNAL LEVER), BEFORE DRIVING THE CAR INTO STORAGE IT WAS USED AND ENJOYED REGULARLY.
THE CAR RAN PERFECTLY PRIOR TO STORAGE AT WHICH TIME THE INTERIOR RESTORATION WAS STARTED, BUT NOT FINISHED DUE TO ILLNESS.
THIS IS A NICE CAR THAT NEEDS A WEEKEND WORTH OF WORK AND YOU WILL BE ON THE ROAD. I HAVE ALL THE PARTS AND MANY EXTRA PARTS TO COMPLETE THE CAR AND HIT THE ROAD.
