"A healthy renovation object."

Description

On May 24, 1952, Miss Elsa Fridh picked up her new Ford Consul at Bilservice in Kristianstad. She was already an established artist with studies in both the USA and France in her CV. She came for many years to teach art and sculpture at Kristianstad Higher General Education.
We do not know how long she kept the Consul for but Elsa Fridh died in 1974 and the car was last inspected in 1976. The meter is at 52230 km but is more likely 152230 km. In any case, it can be seen as a fairly economical used car and the condition seems to match it well.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Last inspected in 1976, if the car was started after that is unknown. The engine room is untouched original with a newer battery so some later attempts have probably been made. Most of the exhaust system is gone

  • Interior condition:

    Complete and well-maintained vinyl upholstery. However, some species of small rodents seem to have feasted on the padding but it still feels good and firm. Door sides are whole but the seams have been worn by the ravages of time. Instrumentation and controls intact and very nice for their age. Very nice baker light steering wheel with little abrasion and crack-free. The glove compartment is extra nice. The ashtrays are in the novelty plastic and have never been used. Floor mats are original and has done decently well over the years. However, there has been moisture in the carpet / insulation which has created some internal rust in the floor. Otherwise completely flawless headliner has become a little faded over the years, some old moisture stains at the back. The trunk is relatively nice. Spare wheels, jack are in place.

  • Exterior condition:

    Dark red paint has probably been repainted in whole or in part at some point. It has received a lot of rust protection during the years in traffic and it has probably saved it over the more than 45 years it has stood still. The only rust damage that is visible is at the bottom of the right front wing. Otherwise complete, nice and intact in trims, edges, doors, thresholds and floors. Front bumper has flaked and rusted a bit, at the back it is nice - completely stainless but got a small dent at some point. The grill is intact and nice and so are the reflectors in the headlights. Completely complete with trim, emblems and more. No obvious rust or damage to door edges and undersides.

  • General condition:

    All in all, completely complete in everything from buttons, emblem lists and spare wheels. A nice, almost untouched object with a good body and interior.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
