Fat-fendered Fords like this 1947 Ford Coupe make for some great customs. With room for a potent V8 under the hood, lots of creature comforts inside (including A/C), and an aggressive stance with flames in the paint, this is a very cool street machine. Bold blue paint is the perfect canvas for all the custom work. You distinctly see the flames that start behind the front wheels and burns hot all the way through the doorline. And as... you dig deeper, you'll spot tri-color pinstriping, and even the "Blue By U" nickname artfully added to the paint. It has an awesome classic custom look with the headlights and the license plate panel frenched for a smooth design. Plus, the wraparound bumpers, grille, and full-length trim give you that ideal look of '40s chrome. And everything from the Eagle Alloy wheels to the louvered hood give this the kind of sporty detail that make these coupes sooooo cool. Inside is a nice mix of vintage style and all the right upgrades. For example, the seats have a classic look and a nice two-tone cloth pattern that's continues on the door panels. But those bright blue seatbelts are a nice addition that coordinate with the exterior-matching blue dash. The full dashboard still has the classic symmetrical look with plenty of brightwork. Even the original AM radio is still on display. But your real driving tunes are coming from the Alpine AM/FM/cassette stereo hidden in the glovebox. And the addition of modern R134a air conditioning means everyone stays comfortable riding in your '47. But the best treats are reserved just for you. The driver gets a wood and chrome banjo-style sports steering wheel on a tilt column. Beyond that, the classic gauges have been upgraded to crisp VDO units, including a large speedo and tach. Under the hood, the smooth painted firewall and all those polished components on the motor means this is one you'll be proud to show off. And beyond the style is the substance of a 350 cubic-inch crate V8. It looks good with newer wires, good belts and a large electric fan. Plus, this V8 inhales deeply with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. It exhales with a sweet sound out of the dual exhaust. The full package fires up nicely, and this one was built to cruise. That's why you also have features like power steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, and power brakes w/discs up front. The sale comes complete with restoration photos, build receipts, and a long history of maintenance records. This cool Ford coupe delivers looks, power, and comfort, so it's exactly what you want.
