Ford Other 1954 Description
This is a hard to find 90+ % original car. After the original owner died, is widow did not have the heart to sell the car. She put it in enclosed storage for over 33 years, ntil she also passed.Since 2014, he next owner had renovated the entire fuel system, with a new gas tank) and electrical (ignition) system. Engine compression is great! Starts up cold even without choke every time. It sits there purring like a kitten! This is the first year of the over head V-8 rated at 120 HP, ith a 2-speed Fordomatic transmission. New 4-wheel drum brakes. All systems are simple, eliable, othing too complicated. The interior is not redone, ut all original, howing very little signs of age. If you look carefully, ou can even see the faint factory decals on the air cleaner and valve covers! This is as good as it gets, ext to a museum or show car.
As I test drove it, he wipers move but seem to have a vacuum line leak. Temp gauge is inoperative, either the sender, ire or gauge needs replacement.) Unlike a Model A, his vintage car really gets up and goes, ruising along with modern traffic on the freeway without effort. It is really a fun car to drive.
The elderly owner has invested in a new set of five wide white walls, nd a quality custom 2-tone metallic paint job. He is reluctant to sell, f not for his health. If you've built cars before, ou'd know it would be difficult to get a cardone in this condition for the price.
