Ford’s Model 68 was the Michigan automaker’s V8 offering for 1935 through 1937. Originally christened the Model 48, 1936 saw the Model 68 introduced as the V8 DeLuxe model, with updated styling. The range was supremely versatile, produced in no less than six variants that included two and four door sedans, coupe, convertible, station wagon and pickup. It’s no surprise then, that these cars make for fine restomods as has been done with this 1936 Ford Model 68 2 Door Sedan 5.0L V8 from Missouri. The exact mileage is unknown, but this car more than makes up for that with its quirky mix of retro and modern.
Thirties Fords were recognizable by their angular grilles, two gaping podded headlamps, and swooping fenders. This 1936 Ford Model 68 2 Door Sedan 5.0L V8 rides on a custom chassis and boasts an all-steel body in a clean shade of white. It’s reportedly got brand new black five-spoke alloy wheels which are wrapped in new tires. If you take a closer look at the side profile, you might notice the shaved door handles look, in fact the doors are electrically actuated, as is the trunk lid. Enter the cabin and you’ll notice it’s all retro-modern here too. Sporting a gray interior theme, you sit on low-back seats with accommodations for four occupants, and the driver grips a Grant G/T wood-rimmed four-spoke steering wheel. Five VDO gauges with retro-style script communicate speed and other critical information to the driver. Further scanning the dash, you will notice the controls for the Vintage Air AC system and power windows, as well as the modern JVC head unit which is hooked up to a CD changer. Cast your eyes upwards and you might as well be in a much more modern car, as you will find proper headliner, sun visors, a roof console box, and a power sunroof.
This 1936 Ford Model 68 2 Door Sedan 5.0L V8 packs a rather more modern V8 engine underneath its stylish hood, packing the 302ci (5.0L) High Output V8 that could be found in the third-generation Mustang. This engine put out around 200hp depending on state of tune, and the drive is sent to the rear wheels via an automatic gearbox.
