1938 FORD STANDARD COUPE. BODY OFF RESTORATION IN 1992 WITH APROX. 3K MILES SINCE DONE. IT HAS BEEN IN STORAGE FROM 1997 UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN I BOUGHT IT. EVERYTHING WAS DONE WHEN THE CAR WAS RESTORED. BEAUTIFUL BODY AND PAINT, ALL NEW INTERIOR, WIRING FRONT TO BACK, ALL CHROME AND STAINLESS TRIM, ENGINE, TRANS, AND REAR END REBUILT, ETC.ETC. WITH LESS THAN 3,000 MILES IN THE LAST 15 YEARS. TO GET IT ROAD WORTHY AGAIN AFTER SITTING ALL THOSE YEARS I HAVE INSTALLED A NEW MASTER CYLINDER, WHEEL CYLINDERS, NEW COKER CLASSIC WIDE WHITE WALL TIRES,WATER PUMPS, FUEL PUMP. REBUILT DISTRIBUTOR,REBUILT CARBURETOR, COIL,BATTERY AND A FEW MORE THINGS I CANT REMEMBER. IT HAS HYDRAULIC BRAKES AND TUBE SHOCKS. THE BODY IS SUPER STRAIGHT AND THE PAINT IS VERY NICE CONDITION ESPECIALY FOR BEING 20 YEARS OLD. THE TRUNK LID HAS TWO VERY SMALL DINGS ON THE LOWER PART THAT COULD BE FIXED EASY BY A DOOR DING REMOVAL GUY. THE FRONT FENDERS HAVE A FEW TINY ROCK CHIPS IN THE LOWER PART OF FENDERS BUT THEY ARE HARD TO SEE. PAINT AND BODY IS AN EASY 8 1/2 TO 9 ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10. 10 BEING BEST. THE INTERIOR IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION, IT HAS THE ORIG. CLOCK AND RADIO, THE RADIO COMES ON AND WILL BUZZ BUT DOES NOT PLAY. ALL THE GAUGES WORK. NO HORN. WINDSHIELD CRANKS OUT AND SEALS UP TIGHT. THE MOTOR SOUNDS GREAT WITH THE DUAL EAHAUST AND IS ALL STOCK AS FAR AS I KNOW. IT STARTS EASY AND SEEMS TO RUN COOL, NEVER BOILS OVER. TRANS FEELS GOOD BUT THE CLUTCH CHATTERS WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. (IT TAKES A BIT OF GETTING USE TO). REAR END IS QUIET AS CAN BE. THE CAR GOES DOWN THE ROAD 55-60 EASY. SO SMOOTH AND AND QUIET YOU BELIEVE IT. NO SQUEEKS OR RATTLES. STEERING IS TIGHT AND BRAKES FEEL GOOD. THER ARE TWO ISSUES WITH THE CAR, ONE IS THE CLUTCH CHATTER WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP, (IF YOU TAKE OFF EASY IT IS FINE), THE OTHER IS WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVE SEVERAL MILES IT WILL ACT LIKE ITS STARVING FOR FUEL UNDER FULL THROTTLE BUT IF IT IS DRIVEN NORMAL IT GOES DOWN THE RAOD FINE. WHEN IT IS COLD AND FOR THE FIRST FEW MILES IT WILL TAKE FULL THROTTLE WITH NO PROBLEM. IT ALWAYS STARTS EASY HOT OR COLD. THE CAR IS BEAUTFUL IN PERSON AND I MUST SAY PICTURES DONT DO IT JUSTICE.IT HAS A CLEAR CALIFORNIA TITLE IN MY NAME REGISTERED AS A 1938 FORD. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL FOR ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. 949-429-5382. THE CAR IS SOLD AS IS . SO PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF NECESSARY. ALL SHIPPING AND TRANSPORTING IS UP TO BUYER.
