1947 Ford Deluxe Custom Coupe Restomod

This 1947 Ford Deluxe Custom Coupe Restomod may be just the ticket for you. Dressed in Purple Metallic and garnished with orange flames and silver trim. The car's paint and trim are in overall excellent condition and is very eye-catching. The bodywork is straight and solid, the engine bay is extremely tidy and the chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body.

This car rolls on Fisk Classic tires, size 205/65R15 in front and Cooper radials, size 225/60R15 in back.

Under the hood is a GM 454 CID V-8 engine that generates 365 horsepower and breathes via dual exhausts and topped with a K&N air cleaner. Backing this motor is a GM Turbo Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic transmission. Driver convenience features include air-conditioning and power steering with tilt column. Note the brakes are not power-assisted.

Inside, the black front bucket seats are sumptuous and the matching carpeting looks good. The headliner is finished in a neutral gray while the inner door panels are gray with black flame trim, echoing the exterior. More GM parts are in the cabin – a four-spoke steering wheel that came from a Chevrolet Vega or Chevette donor, along with a tilt steering column and air vent barrels. The black metal dashboard features a complete array of Auto Meter gauges. The center console looks good as does the console-mounted shifter. An Alpine AM/FM stereo with CD player rounds out the interior.

The 1947 Ford line was similar to the short 1946. Visual differences included the removal of the red accents from the grill and the two small lights located just above it. Ford began titling 1947s in February 1947. For the first few weeks, the 1947 model was identical to the 1946. Ford then restyled the body slightly first by moving the parking lights from above the grill to below each headlight. Exterior moldings were changed from grooved to a smooth design. A new hood ornament with a blue plastic insert was installed. A new hubcap design became available in March. The interior dash color was changed from red accent to gold. By September, the roof-mounted antenna was moved to the cowl. Horns were moved to in front of the radiator from the engine compartment.

This is a good driver and its “bathtub styling” will draw a lot of attention wherever you go. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars today to check out this postwar Ford and all that it offers.
