One year after the onset of World War 2, Ford introduced the 1941 Ford model under 3 different lines, Special, DeLuxe and the Super DeLuxe, with the latter being the highest version available. Production was halted in 1942 and restarted in 1946 with a much needed visual and mechanical upgrade. One of the biggest visual changes between the 1941 model and the post 1946 models was the change of the grille from a 3-piece affair to a 2-piece grille. In the 1978 movie "Grease" a 1948 Ford DeLuxe was featured which no doubt helped the vehicle’s desirability. We present this 1948 Ford Super DeLuxe S 5 Passenger 2 Door Sedan which has undergone a complete frame-off restoration, and is available in Massachusetts as a worthy contender if you are looking for this model.
The Super DeLuxe was produced with higher quality materials compared to the other models. More leather and chrome, also a wood-grain dash was standard as befitting Ford's highest range. This 1948 Ford Super DeLuxe S 5 Passenger 2 Door Sedan comes in a period correct gray color. It rides on a set of OEM wheels with classy white wall tires and matching beauty rings. All chrome parts have been polished to a mirror finish with all relevant badges also polished and in place. Fog lights are standard on the Super DeLuxe S, as are chrome caps. The rear of the vehicle which was rebuilt hosts the boot with a spare whitewall tire within. The interior features a new leather interior from LeBaron Bonney. The dash features a fuel, oil, temperature, and a battery charge gauge alongside the speedo, which sits directly behind the classic 2-spoke Ford etched steering wheel. A clock in chrome and gold takes perfect center stage, matching the color and design of the car.
For a car which is over 70 years old, it still is in excellent shape. This Ford Super DeLuxe S 5 Passenger 2 Door Sedan is powered by a 239ci 3.9L Flathead V8. This motor was able to dish out 100hp of power and 180 lb.ft of torque. 2020 saw a host of refurbishment and restoration work done to the mechanicals, including a rebuild of the engine and three-speed sliding-mesh manual transmission, along with a new carburetor and 6V battery, and rebuild of the generator. The windshield wiper motor, tie rods and king pins were also replaced at this time.
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.
The 1940 Ford range came in various body styles, including two and four-door sedans, coupes, convertibles, station wagons, coupe utilities and even a utility van. Typically, in Ford parlance, the term Tudor referred to a two-door variant, usually a sedan or station wagon. So, as you can glean, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan Hot Rod is a two-door machine, but that’s not all. You see, this Morgan Hill-based car has received a thorough makeover, including a more potent powerplant, a searing red coat of Viper Red paint, a refurbished interior and so much more. Plus, it’s traveled just 3,150 miles since then, making it a fine vintage Ford to add to your life, especially as it’s pretty comfortable and easy to drive with all those upgrades under its belt.
Introduced as the performance-focused version of the Mustang fastback, the Mach 1 quickly became one of the most recognizable muscle cars of the era. By 1970, the Mach 1 represented the sweet spot between aggressive styling and serious V8 performance, offering buyers a variety of potent engine options along with distinctive design cues that set it apart from standard Mustangs. This particular 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 shows just over 91,000 miles and presents as a classic example of Ford’s golden-era muscle car formula. Finished in red and equipped with the signature shaker hood scoop, this Mach 1 combines vintage performance appeal with period-correct styling. With its 351 cubic-inch V8 and a desirable 4-speed manual transmission featuring a Hurst shifter, it offers the engaging driving experience enthusiasts seek from classic American muscle.
What have we got here? Is it KITT, then? Well, not quite. It’s the exact model of Shelby Mustang used for the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider – the GT500KR. Contrary to belief, KR actually means King of the Road. It’s a term that pays homage to the original 1968 GT500KR, a fearsome, Cobra Jet toting machine. Today’s 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR features a supercharged Modular V8 under the hood to really get your pulse racing. In case that isn’t enough, this 1,400-mile machine from Iowa also has the Shaker 1000 audio system, Shelby GT500KR forged wheels and even a carbon fiber rear spoiler and front splitter. You’d better not waste any time, then. Only 1,712 units were made, by the way.
The Fox-body Mustang remains one of the most influential performance cars in American automotive history, and this 1988 Ford Mustang GT Hatchback represents a heavily upgraded example of the platform. Known for its lightweight chassis and highly tunable 5.0-liter V8, the Fox Mustang became a staple in the performance community throughout the late 1980s and 1990s. This particular car has been extensively modified with serious performance hardware, including forged engine internals and a Vortech VS-1 supercharger producing approximately 13 pounds of boost. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, replacing the factory automatic setup. The odometer currently shows 9,999 miles, although the true mileage is unknown. With upgraded drivetrain components, suspension improvements, and modern cooling and braking systems, this Mustang offers the classic Fox-body experience combined with significantly enhanced performance.
