In 1937, Ford introduced its latest array of passenger and light commercial vehicles simply named the 1937 Ford. Available in Standard or Deluxe form, what was called the 1937 Ford would in fact continue for four model years before the 1941 Ford took over. A slew of body styles was offered, including two-door coupe and convertible, two-door one-ton pickup truck, two or four-door sedan, two or four-door station wagon (the Woodie), and two-door van. Incremental upgrades and facelifts were introduced each year. What we’ve got for you here is a 1939 Ford Deluxe Convertible from Connecticut that’s actually a tasteful resto-mod, combining the vintage styling with some modern conveniences. It’s done just 16,500 miles and awaits its next lucky owner.
Thirties Fords came with characteristic styling that can’t be mistaken for any other. 1939 saw the lowering of the front grille for the Deluxe trim, whilst the Standard trim retained the higher front grille of 1937 and 1938. This 1939 Ford Deluxe Convertible looks stunning in its Metallic Silver paint job and rolls on a set of chromed Boyd alloy wheels. The body is reportedly all-steel with original panels and sits on a ‘Fat Man’ chassis. You’ve also probably noticed that it cuts a lower and meaner stance, due to the suspension upgrades described in the next section. The convertible top is in a contrasting shade of black. The interior sports a light gray color scheme and seats two people on gray leather-trimmed seats under the convertible top, while a further two can be accommodated in the exposed ‘rumble seat’ which is situated at the rear where the trunk would be. These seating options give this vehicle a seating capacity of up to 6. The dash in this resto-mod is from a 1956 Oldsmobile, and it’s endowed with digital instrumentation from Dakota Digital, as well as Vintage Air AC and heating.
When new, this 1939 Ford Deluxe Convertible will have sported a 221ci Ford ‘Flathead’ V8 and three-speed, sliding-mesh manual transmission, but this resto-mod has seen the powertrain replaced with a Chevrolet ZZ4 350ci crate motor driving the rear wheels via a 700R4 Turbo-Hydramatic four-speed automatic transmission and 8-inch Ford rear end. While the original Flathead put out 85hp, the crate motor kicks out a much more substantial 350hp and sings its song through a Magnaflow exhaust. An MSD ignition, Mallory distributor and an aluminum radiator is also installed, as is power steering and power brakes, with disc brakes upfront. The front suspension with coil-over shocks are from a Ford Mustang II, whilst an Air Ride system with air shocks are present at the rear.

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.
Blending pre-war American design with raw hot rod attitude, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Sedan Delivery Street Rod is a bold and highly customized build. Showing just 497 miles, this example represents a fresh, purpose-built creation that leans more toward traditional street rod culture than a subtle restomod. With its aggressive stance, patina-style finish, and LS-powered drivetrain, this Ford delivers a unique mix of vintage aesthetics and modern performance. It’s the kind of build that turns heads at shows while still being fully capable of hitting the road with confidence.
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.
The 2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1 marked the triumphant return of one of Ford’s most celebrated performance nameplates, blending retro-inspired styling cues with modern SN95 performance engineering. Showing just 13,375 miles, this Mach 1 Premium Coupe represents an exceptionally low-mileage example of a model that has become increasingly appreciated by Mustang enthusiasts. Finished in Dark Shadow Gray over a Dark Charcoal interior, this car perfectly captures the understated menace that made the Mach 1 so appealing when new. Positioned between the Mustang GT and SVT Cobra, the Mach 1 offered a unique combination of naturally aspirated V8 performance, everyday drivability, and heritage-inspired styling, making it one of the most well-rounded modern Mustangs of its era.
The Ford Model T is quite simply one of the most important automobiles ever built, credited with transforming motoring from a luxury reserved for the wealthy into something accessible to ordinary Americans. By 1924, the Model T had already cemented its place in automotive history, with Ford’s moving assembly line production revolutionizing manufacturing worldwide. This 1924 Ford Model T Touring represents that legacy in one of the marque’s most recognizable body styles, offering open-air motoring exactly as drivers would have experienced it a century ago. Showing TMU (true mileage unknown), this example is presented in classic Red and Black with a Black folding soft top, preserving the unmistakable character of early American transportation. For collectors seeking a true pre-war automotive artifact, few vehicles offer the same historical significance or conversation-starting presence as a Model T.
The late 1990s were a defining era for specialty Mustangs, and few names carried more weight than Saleen. Showing just 24,423 miles, this 1998 Saleen S281 Coupe is already a highly desirable piece of American performance history—but what makes this example especially compelling is its reported 1-of-1 Saleen build configuration, elevating its collectibility well beyond that of a standard S281. Built during a period when Saleen transformed factory Mustangs into sharper, more exclusive performance machines, this coupe combines the raw analog charm of the SN95 platform with authentic Saleen engineering and unmistakable styling. Finished in black over black and equipped with the enthusiast-favorite 5-speed manual, this is exactly the kind of specialty Mustang collectors seek as appreciation for 1990s performance icons continues to grow.
