Equipment
390/300hp, 3-speed, hub caps, narrow whitewalls, dual mirrors, AM radio.
Condition
#4 Fair
Has visible flaws to the naked eye. Runs fine, but could use mechanical or cosmetic attention.
Paint is badly oxidized, and there is rust in the drip rails. Trim is scratched and oxidized. The rocker covers and air cleaner are new, but the engine bay otherwise is dirty and there is evidence of rodents. Gaps are even and the panels are fairly flat. Rear seat looks new or unused, but the front is heavily worn. A project car.
Market commentary
A bare bones Ford with a big engine, it would have been an ideal liquor hauler in its early days, or perhaps as a car for an ambitious salesman who didn't want to waste time between calls. It has potential as an enjoyable, unpretentious, driver that will surprise many cars with vaunted reputations on cruise night. Even with its flaws it is a sound value in this transaction.
