This is a hotrod and not a trailer queen, took it out last week and cruised all day long. This is in better than driver quality but not an ISCA indoor show car
1948 all steel Ford coupe powered by a small block chevy motor. Runs real strong. The transmission is a chevy turbo 400 with a shift kit, powering thru to early gm rear (part number matches up to 1959 corvette and others) with street gears. The paint is in nice overall condition and shines beautifully and she gets a lot of attention when Im cruising around town. There is a blemish/chip here and there from the normal wear of driving but she shows very nicely and gets compliments where ever I go. The Frame and undercarriage are solid and clean like the rest of the car. The rear half of the frame has coil overs with shocks and trailing arms. Has a complete exhaust with tips slightly past rear of bumper. Mufflers are cherry bombs. Front control arms have urethane or rubber bushings.
Trim and chrome looks good. Roll up windows, hood vent opens and closes. one vent window can open and close even thought the post on bottom is missing. The trunk electric popper and latch do not line up. Needs some adjusting.
Front end control arms are not oem and rack and pinion steering along with the front disc brakes makes her car handle and stop unlike any ordinary 48 Ford. Please keep in mind there is no powering steering. But not hard to drive at all without it. The interior was tastefully done in black and red leather along with the red headliner being in really nice condition. The trunk is clean and detailed with custom black and red panels that match the interior. Lots of $money$ invested in this car. Here are are some of the mods that where done.
