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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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.
Introduced as part of Ford’s all-new postwar lineup, the 1949 Ford Custom Club Coupe marked a dramatic departure from prewar automotive design and helped usher in a new era for the American automobile industry. With its integrated body styling, lower stance, and wider appearance, the 1949 Ford quickly became a sales success and remains one of the most recognizable Fords ever built. This example shows 10,785 miles and is finished in classic Black over a gray interior. Powered by Ford’s legendary Flathead V8 and equipped with a 3-speed manual transmission, this Custom Club Coupe offers an authentic driving experience while showcasing the timeless styling that made the 1949 Ford a landmark vehicle in automotive history.
Some builds are modified classics. Others are rolling works of art. This 1950 Ford Custom Deluxe Club Coupe Street Rod unquestionably falls into the latter category. Built by Dakota Muscle Cars and recognized across some of the most respected stages in the street rod world, this award-winning custom is far more than a vintage Ford with a few tasteful upgrades. It is a fully realized high-end build that earned coverage in Street Rodder Magazine, landed in the Street Rodder Top 100 in 2011, and was a finalist for both Custom Rod of the Year and West Coast Custom of the Year. Showing approximately 2,515 miles since completion, this coupe represents the kind of professionally executed custom that would cost an extraordinary amount to replicate today. For buyers seeking craftsmanship, show pedigree, and genuine street usability, this Ford checks every box.
The 1930s were a time for growth, and it was growth that saw motoring take on new strides and slowly shape what machines are today. Fast forward to today, and the marketplace for these vintage American motors is ripe with the presence of custom builds taking what was iconic styling and adding a whole lot of modern appeal to it. Present today is an epic custom build and takes shape with this 1937 Ford Hot Rod. With a reported 13,000 miles on its clock, this custom 30s build is a real looker, a comfortable cruiser, and a real performance machine ready for action.
The Ford F-150 is already one of America’s most recognizable pickups, but this 2022 Ford F-150 Shelby takes the familiar platform in a much more serious direction. Showing 45,615 miles, this truck combines a well-equipped Lariat-based F-150 with an extensive Shelby American performance package. Its centerpiece is a supercharged 5.0L V8 tuned to produce 775 horsepower, backed by a 10-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive. Shelby also transformed the chassis and appearance with a BDS suspension lift, Fox shocks, 22-inch Shelby wheels, bodywork, graphics, and a long list of Shelby-specific details. The limited-edition numbered plate identifies this example as #22ST0086.
Few vintage 4x4s have the enthusiast following of the first-generation Ford Bronco, and this 1971 Ford Bronco Restomod takes that classic formula in a decidedly performance-oriented direction. Showing approximately 2,242 miles, this build combines a 302ci Ford Racing crate V8 with a Holley 570 CFM Street Avenger 4-barrel carburetor, a 3-speed manual transmission, and four-wheel drive. Finished in Wimbledon White and Guardsman Blue with dual Blue stripes, it also features James Duff suspension, Dana 44 and Ford 9-inch axle hardware, Warn locking hubs, roadster-style doors, a family-style roll cage, and a long list of custom audio and trim upgrades. The result is a Bronco that retains its unmistakable early off-road character while incorporating the mechanical and aesthetic touches enthusiasts look for in a thoughtfully executed restomod.
The 2017 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake is what happens when one of America’s most familiar full-size pickups is handed over to Shelby and turned into something far more outrageous. Showing approximately 43,139 miles, this Oxford White SuperCrew pairs the comfort and practicality of a heavily optioned Lariat with a Shelby-engineered 750 HP supercharged 5.0L V8, making it a truck that can haul, cruise, and deliver genuine muscle-car levels of attitude. The transformation goes well beyond the engine, with 22-inch Shelby Retro chrome wheels, a lowered Shelby suspension, functional ram-air hood, full-body rally stripes, unique Shelby bodywork, and a tuned Borla exhaust all contributing to its unmistakable presence. Inside, Shelby registry details are joined by desirable factory equipment such as Equipment Group 502A, the Technology Package, adaptive cruise control, and a twin-panel moonroof. It is the kind of truck that combines everyday usability with the theater and exclusivity enthusiasts expect from the Shelby name.
