The Model 48 made its debut in 1935 and was a modernized version of the existing Model 40A, Ford’s primary product at the time. The perfect combination of practicality, good looks, and affordability that the Model 48 possessed made it exceedingly successful and boosted Ford ahead of Chevrolet, the company’s main rival at the time, taking the crown for most cars sold that year; 820,000 to be exact. This 1935 Ford Model 48 is the Deluxe trim, and currently resides in Ohio and is one of just 3,187 cars ever produced. What makes it even more exclusive is that this Deluxe is reportedly one of just 30 cars left.
This rare 1935 Ford Deluxe Convertible Sedan has received a complete body-off restoration and now sits proudly in Deer Born Blue—the original color that it first came in. The abundance of chrome that highlights the exterior, such as its massive front grille, front, and rear bumper, along with the head and taillights, has been refinished. This Model 48 convertible is equipped with a beige soft top and sits on a set of whitewall tires. The interior has been reupholstered and restored by Lebanon Bonney Company. The cabin features a perfectly preserved tan interior that includes all trim pieces to look brand new and plush leather seats, along with leather door panels and a beautiful 3-spoke steering wheel that matches the dash panel.
Under the hood of this vintage Deluxe sits a 221ci 3.6L flathead V-8 that sends power to the rear wheels. The naturally aspirated V8 can produce up to 85BHP at 3,800rmp via a 3-speed manual standard transmission.
Vintage Fords seem to take two forms these days. Pristinely-restored classics with true to original form, or wacky hot rods that change nearly everything. Today’s 1939 Ford Deluxe Coupe straddles the line between these two. On the outside, this nice green classic looks pretty stock. Under the skin and on the inside, though, it’s been tastefully upgraded to make it more pleasant to drive, showcase, and enjoy. Now up for grabs in Carnation, Washington with 24,308 miles on the odometer, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a car from the 1930s with modern features such as a sound system, automatic gearbox and heating.
The 1937 Ford line-up hit the streets as a refresh of the preceding Model 48. It was offered in a variety of body styles, and is known as one of the most popular cars for hot-rodding to this day. Case in point, this 1939 Ford Deluxe Convertible Hot Rod from Coast 2 Coast. Starting off as a 2-door car, this car has been comprehensively hand-formed from a 1939 Ford fiberglass body by Coast 2 Coast, and features a host of enhancements. From a 5.7-liter LS1 V8 from arch-rivals Chevy, to a GM 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission and a plushly reupholstered Fawn Beige leather interior, this hot rod is a fine cruiser that will brighten up the darkest of days.
In 1937, Ford debuted its update on the popular Model 48. This era is commonly called the 1937 Ford, and it ran between 1937 and 1940. Here, Ford debuted an all-new 136ci V8 at the entry level of the range, but kept the 221ci unit unchanged. The Blue Oval also offered buyers many body styles, including coupes, convertibles, sedans, coupe utilities, station wagons and vans. Furthermore, the 1937 Ford range was also sold in Australia, as well as assembled in Romania and Latvia. Ford sure was going places. Today, cars of this vintage have usually been turned into restomods and hot rods, but it’s not hard to find relatively true-to-stock examples. Case in point, this 1939 Ford Deluxe that’s for sale in Oak Hill, Florida right now. It’s got just over 70,000 miles on its 221ci Flathead V8, and comes with a 3-speed manual transmission. We’re also told that the car has been repainted.

Cars from the 20’s have now clocked in a century of existence, they are tremendous pieces of engineering that are often overlooked by the automotive world. Fast forward to the modern-day world of motoring, and a lot has changed; everything is faster, but the very essence of motoring has been lost. Looking to explore that old-school 20s charm with the addition of performance? Feast your eyes on this 1923 Ford Model T T-Bucket Hot Rod we have today. This custom hot rod is reported to have run just 3,196 miles and hails from Three Rivers, Michigan.
Ford’s famous T-Bird was conceived in the Fifties, as an American Grand Tourer. But using that European designation wouldn’t do, so Ford created a segment name for it as well: Personal Luxury Car. Introduced in 1955 as a luxurious two-seater with V8 power under the hood, the first-generation T-Bird saw over 16,000 sold. This Torch Red 1955 Ford Thunderbird from Roseville, California is one such example. With its two-tone interior, 292ci V8 and 12-volt electrical system, this is a fine classic to drive around in. The car also comes with the detachable hardtop included in the sale, making it an all-weather, all-season classic if you please. We believe that the car may have received restoration, and bears just 1,700 miles since then.
