"One of the finest pre-war Fords, meticulously restored to top condition."

Description

The owner's father purchased this car completely disassembled in boxes in the mid-nineties. The car's previous history is not known, but older documents confirm that it was originally sold in Sweden. Extensive and meticulous restoration work began, and in 2002, the car was able to pass inspection and be re-registered.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    No issues to report; the car operates as expected for a vehicle of this era. The side-valve engine runs quietly, smoothly, and feels strong. It maintains a stable temperature and has never overheated.

  • Interior condition

    New upholstery sewn according to the original pattern during the restoration. Rubber mat on the floor in very good condition. The dashboard has been faux wood-grain painted with a professional result

  • Exterior condition

    Nice paint in an appealing and period-correct color. Very well done during the restoration but has acquired some scuffs and minor blemishes since then, but nothing too noticeable. Good tires of the correct type. The convertible top is most likely of older vintage and doesn't maintain the same finish as the rest of the car.

  • General condition

    Neatly restored car that attracts attention in its lovely pastel color.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
