1951 Ford Other Additional Info:

  • If you have been looking for that classic car investment then thisrareClassic FORD just may have your name on it! These 1950's cars have incredible investment potential, and have been referred to as rolling bank accounts!According to the previous owner this has a 350 chevy engine, and a gm overdrive automatic 4 speed transmissio, and 8.8 ford read end. IT RUNS BUT NOT DRIVING YET!!........... I HAVE A NICE ALUMINUM RADIATOR FOR IT needs TO BE INSTALLED, NEEDS BATTERY installed, and some small stuff here and there . OVER $17,500 INVESTED . If anyone is concerned andwould want me to check numbers I will gladly verify the authenticity of the block. I am listing this FORD for a friend since he is not internet savv, he picked it up in a trade a few weeks ago. I'm selling this car as needing work here and there to bring this back to showroom new former glory.I was told this car had never been in any accidents, and everywhere I inspected I saw no signs of this car ever having any major damage. In my opinion I would say all the body panels ARE VERY STRAIGH, (THERE IS A DENT IN THE PASSENGER FRONT FENDER ABOUT THE SIZE OF A BASEBALL) . DRIVERS DOOR GLASS IS CRACKED, The bumpers ARE RE CHROMED nice and straight, GRILL TOO, NICE chrome.!!! All the panels look original to the car. This by no means a show car or a trailer quee, but it is a nice solid cool old rat rod type of driver to enjoy as suc, gets lots of compliment, rarely see another one at the car shows.
    With each passing year, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to find any of these for a reasonable price. To find one in this shape especially satin black . I'm sure most car car guys will agree that this color and interior combination is one of the most popular and most desirable.
    I would rate this car as very nice (NOT SHOW CAR, BUT VERY PRESENTABLE)
    This car has a CHEVY NOVA SUBFRAME with tubular front control arms, DISC BRAKES,... finishing it up will be left to the winning bidder, All I know is once this car is fine tuned and or restored to its former beauty the new owner will most likely have endless thumbs up wherever they drive. You should have an outgoing personality to drive a car like this, because everywhere you go people will be attracted to you like a magnet.
    The engine was detailed and appears to have most of its original components that came from a 1970's car. Has new tires power steering AM Radio The corners of the doors are solid as are the rockers, fender bottoms, lower quarters all good, and both doors open and close nicely, the trunk lid is also in nice condition, trunk floor solid.
    The front and the rear floor pans are the originals, and had repair done so they are solid. I never had the car up on a lift, but from everywhere I looked the frame looks in good condition.
    The original dash has been restored is in very nice shape, seats have been recovered look and feel comfy.
    This FORD is a very valuable automobile if restored properly!
    This is an investment that I believe will continue to rise as these cars haveshown toconsistently escalate in value. Here is a prime opportunity to acquire your dream car at a nominal price. I tried to list everything I know about this car when writing this description.If you feel I may have left anything out please ask as many questions as you like. *************car is mostly complet, but missing a few parts ****NO BATTERY, and i'm sure a few other odds and ends .
