1939 Custom Ford Fordor "Forvette"

Unique build that began life as a 1939 Ford Business Coupé but today goes by the name "Forvette". The body has been moved to an extended Corvette C5 chassis (model year 2000) and the engine, a 5.7-liter LS1 and gearbox (original Corvette 4L 60) have been included in the new build. The transaxle tunnel is built in aluminium and extended to fit the current body. This work was carried out by specialist companies. The car has been rebuilt by a very thorough and skilled builder over a long period of time. Unfortunately, the builder has passed away and the car is being sold by the family. Information about the vehicle can therefore be more sparse than our other vehicles on the site.

The car is consistently well built and the condition is very good. The builder was interested in just building the car and not so much in driving the vehicle around. Painted in a matte gray with black details all around and the paintwork is obviously in good condition. There are minor marks documented which can be seen in our photos of the item.

Custom interior with upholstered dashboard, deeper seats, various extra instrumentation, heating package, screen instead of rear view mirror and more.

Under the hood, as previously mentioned, lurks an LS1 from a Corvette C5 from the year 2000. The engine has been completely overhauled. Under the hood it is clean and tidy and no leaks have been found. Under the car, it is just as clean, tidy and cared for as the rest. The brakes are slotted and ventilated at the front and ventilated at the rear.

A unique build for those who want to stand out at summer gatherings with a custom 30s coupe that hides a Corvette C5 under the body!
