1937 Ford Coupe Streetrod
1937 Ford Other Streetrod
This ultra-clean 1937 Ford Coupe is one heck of a rod for the price. Professionally built with all the goodies you'd expect from a piece costing twice as much, it's a show-stopper that's ready to cruise and show this summer. It's a Downs Fiberglass body that captures the cool art-deco look of the original, from the deep V-shaped front grille and faired-in headlights to the sleek 3-window coupe profile, and it's a shape that will never go out... of style. The top has been chopped in true hot-rod fashion, the A-pillars have been laid back, and all the trim and handles have been smoothed and shaved, leaving a shape that's pure Ford custom. Excellent prep work on the fiberglass means the bright red finish is flat and smooth, with trick pinstriping down the flanks that were buried under the clear for a seamless look. Extra attention was spent on the fit and alignment of the doors, hood and trunk, so the gaps are tight and the surfaces are flush, lending the car a precision look that is seldom found on rods at this price. Other custom touches include the frenched teardrop taillights, a painted grille and side-vents, and turn signals integrated into the headlight buckets behind those lovely teardrop lenses. Color matched mirrors are the only interruption in the smooth shape, but they've been so neatly integrated into the design that you barely notice them. Wow, what a great car! The interior is brilliantly executed in two-tone vinyl and suede with sculpted buckets that were borrowed from a late-model. Matching door panels take it a step further and incorporate ostrich leather and custom accents, and the custom touches continue behind the seats where two large speakers are mounted into the matching fabric. The dash contains the same ostrich material found in the door panels, along with an array of bright gauges from Classic Instruments. Black carpets are plush and match the color of the seat inserts, and the 3-spoke, leather-wrapped billet steering wheel sets atop a tilt column for added space for the driver. R134a A/C, power windows, and a JVC AM/FM/CD are all part of the package, making this wicked streetrod a very comfortable place to be in. The trunk is also beautifully finished with matching side and rear panels, fitted carpets, and hidden compartments for things like the battery and stereo equipment. A dazzling, chrome-plated and polished 383 cubic inch Stroker V8 delivers plenty of power and torque, and delivers more show-stopping quality under the hood. A smoothed and painted firewall provides the perfect backdrop for the small block Chevy, and details like the fined valve covers and air cleaner are a beautiful addition. A 4-barrel carburetor, polished aluminum intake, and HEI distributor ensure that this snarling small bock snaps to attention at the turn of a key, and a big radiator keeps the whole show cool. Gear swaps are managed by a TH350 3-speed automatic spinning a 9-inch rear. A Mustang II front end with power rack-and-pinion steering is up front, and the chassis and undercarriage was built for the road and is still in outstanding, paint-matched condition. The dual exhaust system sounds awesome, power front discs are powerful, and it rolls on 17- and 18-inch chrome wheels wearing low-profile rubber. Pro-built rods don't get much nicer than this. Fully sorted and tested, it's ready to drive and show, with a look that'll never go out of style. Call today!
