Summary
A unique opportunity to acquire the rarest of the 1930s Ford models, according to American experts. An incredibly tough and beautiful vintage car with the lovely rumble of a V8 and a genuine hot rod feel. You are sure to receive many thumbs up and smiles as you cruise around.
It is not a convertible, but parts of the original wooden frame remain inside the cabin. Much has been replaced and improved by Autotec in Västerås, who have also regularly serviced the car. Many hours and large sums have been invested over the years to keep it in top condition. Equipped with a good electric fan to prevent overheating in traffic. The front windshield can be opened for extra ventilation, and despite being from 1932, the car offers surprisingly good seating comfort, even for tall people—something rare for this model.
The car has also received the "Most Outstanding Car" award among 600 participating cars at a car show. It is SFRO-inspected and tax-exempt, making it approved for future use without the need for additional inspections.
This is a unique and fun car to own, with lasting value and great character—you must experience it in person!
