1950 Ford Custom Deluxe Two Door Sedan Paint / Body: In 1950, Ford had two models. The base model called a "Deluxe" and the top model called a "Custom Deluxe". Of course the top model came with a few more items.
The body was refinished in a Nissan "Hot Red" paint color. (Code: "526" 1986-1994) It is a base color/clear coat type of paint and it is holding up pretty well. There is some body filler in the lower sections of the vehicle along with some rust bubbles starting to pop out. There may be some small chips or nicks here and there that can be easily touched up. There are no dents or dings. The paint is shiny, but could use a quick wet sanding and buffing to make it really pop. The area under the fuel door is a little dull because of over filling the fuel and it seeping down the side of the car. Not sure if that shine will come back if it is wet sanded and buffed. The hood and door alignment is good with the correct gaps and lines. The trunk lid needs alignment, but doesn't leak and has a new weatherstripping. (Raised up on the driver's side. See photo #32)
Chrome / Trim: All of the chrome is in very nice condition. The front and rear bumpers along with bumper guards and some of the other chrome pieces look great with a deep shine. The grill area is nice with no pitting. The door handles may have some pitting starting. The rest of the stainless steel trim pieces are also very nice. The car has a two side view mirrors.(Left and right) The owner added the "V8" emblems to the front fenders that go very well with the vehicle. It also has stainless steel front fender gravel guards installed along with a fuel door guard.
Interior: The seats (front and rear) along with the headliner (w/Two sunvisors) were redone a few years ago. The gray cloth/vinyl fabric is holding up very well and is clean and free of any wear or stains. There is one little hole in the vinyl on the side of the driver's seat from a spring inside the seat. (See photo #46) The door panels are in nice shape along with the arm rests and knob hardware. The original steering wheel was professionally restored and looks great with no cracks or chips. It has the original chrome horn ring that came with the "Custom Deluxe" models. The front seating area has a rubber floor mat and the rear seating area has a piece of carpet. Both are in very nice shape. There is nothing on the car that does not work. All of the original gauges are working along with the other electrical items such as the horns, lights, high/low beams, heater, cigarette lighter, brake lights and turn signals. (The turn signals were added for safety, and are non-canceling) A newer type AM/FM/Cassette radio was added along with dual speakers in the front and rear. It is fitting into the original radio space in the dash and looks great. The wiper are vaccum driven and are working. The original style clock was converted to quarts movement and is also working. A traffic light viewer is install on the dash. The glove box area is clean and still has a factory decal installed.
Engine Compartment: The engine compartment has the correct 239 Cu. In. "Flathead" 100HP V8 engine. Most likely original to the vehicle. (Appox. 93k original miles). It starts and runs great. Has the typicle drip or two of oil if it sits for a while. Bolted to this power plant is the stock 3-speed manual transmission, column shift. "Three on the tree". It also has the original overdrive setup. The power train is all working like it should. The old generator was swapped out with a more efficient 6 volt one wire alternator to help run the headlights and other items. The 6 volt battery is also working great. There is nothing on this car that does NOT work. No mechanical issues. The belt, hoses, clamps, spark plugs, plug wires, points and coil have always been well maintained and are all are in great shape with no problems. An electric fuel pump was added to help with the cold starts making sure the fuel gets to the stock carburator. Under the hood has a few chrome parts giving the car a true "custom" look. The vehicle comes with a Ford Shop Manual.
Trunk Area: The trunk looks very stock with all the correct items. It has a black trunk mat. The original looking bias-ply spare tire is in nice shape along with the jack, jack stand and jacking tools.
Glass: All of the windows are in nice shape including the two piece windshield. There are no cracks, scratches, or chips. The side windows roll up and down normally without any problems or issues. The two door sedan vehicles were equipped with front and rear vent windows.(All are working great.) The rear window has a new seal around it.
Wheels and Tires: The car has the stock 15" steel rims with the original Ford hubcaps and trim rings. All are in nice shape. They look good with the red painted rims. Mounted on these wheels are newer Mastercraft steel belted radial whitewall tires. (Less than 100 miles) Size: 205/75R15 with plenty of tread. The vehicle drives straight and does not pull or vibrate at high speeds.
Undercarriage: The frame is a little rusty but solid, straight, and without any problems. The floor and trunk pans are original with no signs of any repairs or issues. The underside is still pretty clean but not detailed. The car has been lowered 2" and the suspension is in good working order with no issues or noises. It has a dual exhaust system running from the stock manifolds back to the rear with chrome tips. It seems solid with no holes or weak areas and sounds great. The factory brakes have been gone over and are working fine with no problems or leaks.
(Nine times out of ten, people selling a car would not talk about or take any photos of the underside. The undercarriage tells you a lot about the car, that is why I took a few pictures of the bottom.)

Please read all of the terms before bidding.Our goal at Classic Cars Online, LLC. is to broker positive transactions between buyers and owners. We help with listing and presenting vehicles on eBay for the owners. We are not in possession of the vehicle. The owner provides us the information for the eBay auction and has stated the representations are true to the best of his/her knowledge.
We also have a "Risk Free" 7 day inspection period AFTER the auction for the winner bidder.
(See below for details.) 1) The owner provides and is responsible for any and all representations within this auction and not Classic Cars Online, LLC. The owner states that the presentations are honest and accurate to the best of his/her knowledge and assumes all legal responsibilities for the vehicle and representations. 2) At the conclusion of the auction and upon reception of a Five percent (5%) deposit, Classic Cars Online, LLC. will place the winning bidder in touch with the owner to arrange for inspection or transportation.

The remaining balance, is due to the owner at inspection/acceptance. *If inspection is not completed within 7 days, or buyer waves his choice to inspect the vehicle, the deposit is nonrefundable and the deal is finalized. The inspection can be done by the buyer personally or a third party inspector that the buyer hires. 4) Full payment is due within 7 days of auction closing. You are not purchasing a new car that is claimed to be flawless. Instead, you are purchasing a vehicle that is old and expected to have normal wear and tear from age. The vehicle is sold "as is" where is without any warranty implied or expressed. All sales are final once inspected or paid in full. 5) If the vehicle was found to be materially misrepresented at the inspection, your deposit is refundable and you are not liable for the purchase but this must be determined within the allotted seven (7) day inspection period. Regardless of our commitment to describe vehicles in as much detail as possible there will be imperfections. Failing to mention for example an item such as a small paint imperfection, a minor non-safety related item such as a switch etc, does not constitute refusal of the vehicle by the buyer. We require you to put in writing via email or fax the material misrepresentations in order to receive a refund of your deposit. Taking a few photos of the misrepresented area for us to see, will help point out and confirm your concerns. "Changed my Mind" is not a valid excuse for your deposit to be refunded. 6) Bidding on this auction demonstrates your acceptance to indemnify and hold harmless Classic Cars Online, LLC. from any liability resulting from this transaction, including any reasonable attorney fees. 7) PLEASE DO NOT bid unless you have full intentions of purchasing at your bid price.

Our integrity is impeccable as our feedback shows and we demand the same from our bidders. 9) Bidder/Buyer is responsible for all the shipping costs, insurance, title work, and must be 18 years of age or older. Remember, whether you are buying a car/truck from eBay, Hemmings or Collector Car Trader, you will inevitably want to go and inspect the vehicle.
