Description of 1935 Ford Other Model 48

Rare 5-Window Rumble Seat Coupe Ready to Cruise VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: VEHICLE HISTORY: My father bought this restored 5-Window Coupe to add to his collection at Snook’s Dream Cars Automobile Museum in 2006. He favored the Early Ford V8s and added this one to go along with his 1936 Roadster and 1940 Coupe. As with all the cars in our Museum this one was driven regularly. and any required maintenance was performed to keep it “Running. Reliable. and Ready to Show”. My father passed away and this rare 1935 Ford 5-Window Rumble Seat Coupe is being sold to finance additional cars for the collection. With the 12V conversion. the engine spins rapidly and starts easily. It’s not a #1 show car. but it’s a fun car to drive and is now ready for a new owner to enjoy this Early Ford V8! See all the collection at: www. snooksdreamcars. com MARQUE HISTORY: Fords for 1935 were thoroughly refreshed from the previous models. The body was lowered. the wheelbase increased. the windshield had a sharper slope. the grille was narrowed and pushed forward; all contributing to a more modern. streamlined look. Ford was America’s best selling car for 1935. There were 78. 77 standard 5-window coupes produced with a list price of $520. INCLUDED WITH PURCHASE: Maintenance Records.
