All steel 1939 Ford Standard Coupe street rod. This car first made its appearance at the initial Washington D.C. car show held at the D.C. armory (which later became the World of Wheels car show) in 1957!!! where it won "Best of Show". It was then shown in subsequent World of Wheels shows from 1958 through 1961 and won "Best of its Class" each time. The current owner purchased the car in 1964 shortly after it appeared at the 1964 World of Wheels car show in D.C. when it was then powered by an Oldsmobile engine. Since then the Coupe has gone through several transitions to its current condition today. It has NEVER had any rust or bondo.
NO TRADES
In 2000 a crate motor 305 c.i. Chevrolet and 700R4 transmission were added and for the next 8 years the Ford logged approximately 10,000 miles attending various street rod events around the country.
Creature comforts were added such as an independent front end, power rack & pinion steering, A/C, power brakes (disc front & drum rear), and a Kenwood stereo system w/Bluetooth.
Then in 2008 the owner started to make some up to date changes such as, using a 1972 Pontiac Trans Am gauge cluster, and he just stopped and lost interest....the car sat idle in his garage for 10 years.
Over this past year every aspect of the car including the brakes, electrical, interior, exterior, and mechanical has been inspected and brought up to the condition you see it today.
It is a pleasure to drive and attracts attention wherever it goes. Has always been kept in a heated garage.

PLEASE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE
I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 10 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, "Tire kickersâ€, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
