Vehicle description
Vintage Motorcars LLC is offering another amazing automobile, taking you back to when Batman was the new comic superhero, Lou Gehrig retired from baseball and the movie, “The Wizard of Oz,” graced silver screens nationwide as the storm clouds of war gathered over Europe. This 1939 Ford steel-bodied, convertible Sedan. This car is just amazing having just finished a full frame off professional restoration. This car done to impeccable standards. Being offered at a fraction of the restoration cost. Inside, the brown bench seat looks great. The matching door panels compliment the seat and dashboard is designed to mirror the cabin. All the gauges are in original condition and function as designed. Under the hood, the original one-barrel Holley 94 carburetor feeding the Ford 221 CID Flathead V-8, is mated to a three-speed on-the-column manual transmission. The car has a live axle suspension with transverse leaf springs, four-wheel hydraulically-actuated drum brakes (a new feature for 1939), Ford Motor Company introduced its DeLuxe Ford line in 1938 as an upscale alternative to bridge the gap between its base model (usually called Standard) and luxury Lincoln offerings. The DeLuxe Fords of 1938 featured a more sloping hood and ornamental heart-shaped grille. This look was passed on to the standard line for 1939, as the DeLuxe Fords gained sharp V-shaped grilles with vertical bars. The “Deluxe” name was used intermittently before and after this to specify an upscale trim but the DeLuxe Ford line was differentiated as a separate “marque within a marque” with separate styling and pricing through 1940. During 1939, Ford had five lines of cars – Ford, DeLuxe Ford, Mercury, Lincoln-Zephyr and Lincoln. Ford made 10,422 Deluxe Convertibles and a total of 487,000 vehicles in 1939.
