Description for Ford Crown Victoria 1951

1951 was the first year for the Ford Victoria, nd this is where Ford first really satisfied America's post-WWII desire for great styling and premium touches. Of course, hen it comes on a super-slick hot rod with great paint and upgraded V8 power, hen this is the perfect coupe to fit in with any vintage crowd.When you want a cool-looking custom, he Victoria is the right place to start. Its pillarless hardtop design with wraparound rear windshield is a premium feature that makes this far more rare than the standard coupe. But this is so darn attractive Ford Victorias actually outsold Chevy's line-topping Bel Air in '51. This one looks amazing dressed in a shade of burnt orange that has so much clearcoat it looks like candy-coated Tootsie Pop. It sets off the custom car attitude, ut this one also keeps its vintage appearance, nd the best place to see it is on the black roof that pays homage to this car's original Code A Raven Black color. Like any good 1950s coupes, his one has plenty of brightwork led by the large front bumper and intricate grille that doubled down on the previous year's bullet-nose style. There's great trim around the hardtop and running down the side of the car. It all wraps around the rear end whose design was hinting at the tailfin era that was coming soon. But those are the great vintage touches. This hot rod lets people know it's special with the chrome in the headlights and those bright American Racing Torq Thrust wheels.The interior tells you this one is special, oo.

Under the hood is 302 cubic-inch V8 that's been given plenty of nice features, ncluding the Cobra valve covers, delbrock air cleaner, nd four-barrel carburetor.
