In the automotive landscape of today, Ford models boast distinct names like Mustang, Bronco, Explorer, and Maverick, making them easily recognizable. However, this wasn't always the case. Consider the 1951 Ford Custom Deluxe 4-Door Sedan, a fine example hailing from the 1949 Ford series, which succeeded the 1941 Ford, itself following the 1937 Ford. This sedan, part of the upscale Custom lineup, represents an era when cars were distinguished by series rather than individual names. With 87,000 miles on the odometer and thoughtful updates, it promises a prolonged journey of enjoyment.
Cloaked in a refined green paint job, the 1951 Ford Custom Sedan showcases the timeless design sensibilities of the 1940s. Chrome accents, from bumpers to trunk embellishments, add a touch of elegance. The slatted rear wheels and white-striped tires, reportedly new, evoke a classic charm complemented by chrome hubcaps. Stepping inside reveals an interior that reportedly retains its original charm. Well-upholstered bench seats offer comfort, while the Art Deco-styled dashboard catches the eye. Original features, such as the radio player, exude nostalgia, though functionality remains unverified. The column-mounted gear shifter and a thin-rimmed steering wheel contribute to the vintage appeal. Notably, the presence of the original Magic Air box hints at the car's equipped heater. The trunk, maintaining good condition for its age, completes the ensemble.
Under the hood, the 1951 Ford Custom Sedan houses the original Flathead V8, a 239ci powerhouse, propelling the rear wheels through a 3-speed manual transmission. Recent upgrades, including a new radiator, oil change, tune-up, and brakes, enhance its reliability. The drum brakes, both front and rear, provide stopping power. The car boasts independent front suspension and a solid axle rear suspension setup with leaf springs, contributing to its enduring performance. With meticulous care, this sedan stands ready for both nostalgic drives and admiration of its classic heritage.
This is no ordinary 1949 Ford. No, this particular 1949 Ford Custom has been extensively resto-modded into what you see here. It sits meaner, has much more power than it left the factory with, and even includes some nice creature comforts. If you choose to buy this car, you're getting a one-of-a-kind machine that's done just 1,000 miles since it was rejuvenated. Can you handle it? Only one way to find out.

When Ford debuted their 1949 line-up of cars, it signaled a new era for the company. The 1949 Ford was the first line-up since the 1941 Ford that was somewhat muted due to being conceived in the middle of World War II. Alas, the 1949 Ford line-up would last just three model years before being replaced by the 1952 Ford line-up. During its short life, the car was produced in Australia and Malaysia as well as at no less than ten United States assembly plants. Up for sale, today is a 1951 Ford Custom Deluxe Convertible that's reportedly undergone a rotisserie restoration approximately ten to fifteen years ago. What's a rotisserie restoration? Well, it's a restoration that focuses on renewing and refreshing nearly every aspect of the car. Think about it like a rotisserie chicken that gets evenly cooked on all sides, and you get the picture. Now that we've set the stage let's delve a little deeper into why this car is worthy of your consideration. We're also told that the original owner's manual and color sheet are included in the sale.
The original Mustang Boss 302 of the late 1960’s is an iconic muscle car in every respect. So, when Ford decided to resurrect the idea in 2012, the bar was already set high. Many feared the reincarnated Boss 302 would be nothing more than a marketing exercise that evoked memories of the original through visual upgrades and nothing more. However, the fears were put to rest when the car was unveiled. While visually, the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 does differ from the GT500, there was so much more going on under the skin. The result was almost universally praised by the press, with an extra 32 horsepower from the engine, a completely revised approach to the car’s suspension, and improved brakes. If that wasn’t enough, the Boss 302 presented today has gone under some significant modifications by GALPIN Auto Sports. With a host of upgrades, and some eliminations, this Mustang is set as a proper track car with a gutted interior and a new 5.2L V8 engine that features other functional upgrades that could be the perfect track-weapon in your garage.
The 1957 Ford Thunderbird was an icon the moment it left its factory floors; it had iconic '50s styling that was jaw-dropping, the luxury that most '50s American motors are renowned for, and performance that was supposed to take on the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette. Present today is not just any first-generation Ford Thunderbird, but this sought-after 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code. Built to turn heads as you drive by, this 50s icon can be your weekend cruiser that's best enjoyed with its top-down and picturesque back road.
You could say that having a Ford Bronco is like having a Labrador retriever. Everybody is happy to see it, and it is welcome anywhere. Born to butt heads against the Jeep CJ, the Ford Bronco is your ticket to enter any auto show, and people will praise it with a shared passion for classic autos. And it's not hard to see the appeal. You can take its roof off and let the wind and sun come in freely. That is what this 1971 Ford Bronco 4WD Sport Utility is all about. It is a classic off-roader with a more potent engine than standard and includes contemporary features that make it a delight to drive. Located in Tennessee, it is reported to be in good condition and awaits its next ardent owner.
When the 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe was first introduced, their commercials referred to it as a completely new look that time can not wash away. Sure enough, even after a number of decades, the Chevrolet Impala remains a car that is accepted to be beautiful from every angle. Another interesting fact about the 1965 model year is that they improved the Jet Smooth Ride with a new chassis and suspension design and made it standard equipment in every model. To this day, its ability to make you feel like you are hovering above potholes is said to surpass the comfort of contemporary city cars. This 1965 Chevrolet Impala Coupe, with a recently installed engine, bears only 1,000 miles on the clock.
There are few cars that can embed themselves into popular culture the way the achingly beautiful third-generation Chevrolet Impala has. The model featured many design flourishes that epitomized the ’50s and ‘60s, including the car’s long and flowing lines, low roof, lashing of chrome, wrap-around windshield, and distinctive c-pillar design. The car we offer for sale here takes the traditional Impala recipe and adds so much more. Under the hood, you’ll find a modern GM LS V8 engine, which just so happens to have a supercharger strapped to it for good measure. This 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS restomod has undergone an extensive restoration and features a host of new parts and upgraded tech. It could be yours, with just 2,500 miles recorded since the restoration was completed.
