Description for Ford Tudor 1936

How about some love for the '36 Fords? You see a lot of '32-34 rods running around, but the '36s, with their own distinctive grille and handsome styling make fantastic cruisers, too. This bright yellow 1936 Ford tudor sedan is an all-steel car with an older build and the right features, all at the right price. Amazing what a coat of paint can do, right? This Ford carries unmodified bodywork, including the roof, which still has a fabric insert living under that roof rack. Every square inch of it was drenched in bright yellow paint, so it sure isn't subtle, but it does have an eye-catching look. The shape is completely as Ford intended, but the little stuff is what makes this car special. Note the painted grille, which is a nice evolution of the 1935 redesign, the delicate creases that run down the centers of the fenders, and the integrated turn signals that take the place of the original horn grilles. Bright graphics along the sides give it a unique look and while there's plenty of evidence of age and wear, it pretty much guarantees that you won't hesitate to drive this car. Pedestal taillights are original and just too pretty to be replaced by some aftermarket things, and the dipped bumpers are the way Henry made them, too. Gray cloth upholstery creates a sporty interior with all the amenities. Bucket seats from a late-model and the full-width back seat is still fully usable for family-style cruising and there's a functional center console between the front seats. The durable cloth upholstery is in good condition and the door panels are simple and effective. Stylish gauges have a retro look that works well with the diamond-tufted instrument panel and headliner, something you might have seen at the Auto-Rama when you were a kid in the '80s. Other features include A/C (needs servicing), a Sony AM/FM/CD stereo and power windows. The interior is one place you could invest a little time and effort that would really pay off, and at this price, there's plenty of room to improve without hurting your bottom-line. And the great thing about this Ford is that it has a rather useful trunk that's thoughtfully fitted with a space-saver spare, just in case.Simple, reliable power in the form of a 350 cubic inch Chevy V8 lives under the original louvered hood. There's nothing radical, just solid, proven mechanicals that'll get you where you want to go. Holley supplied a 4-barrel carburetor, there are block-hugging exhaust manifolds, an HEI ignition lights it up, and the accessory drive is pulled in tightly to the block to fit in the narrow engine bay. The chrome valve covers have been playfully fitted with Ford script emblems and a few areas were covered in yellow paint to tie it together. The chassis includes things like a Mustang II front suspension, 2004R 4-speed automatic transmission, and a 10-bolt rear end on leaf springs, so it's easy to drive and comfortable on the road. Chrome steel wheels with spinners and staggered 195/65/15 front and 225/75/15 rear blackwall radials round out the look.At this price, there's a lot of car here, ready to upgrade and enjoy. The basics are certainly there, it's steel, and there's no arguing with the classic look. Call today!
