Showing a well-respectd style that became very popular in the immediate post-war American climate is the Ford Super Deluxe Convertible. Presented in maroon with tan cloth top and a perfectly complementary light brown cloth and maroon leather interior; this car displays a very nice older restoration and is powered by the legendary 239-cid, 100-hp L-head V-8 engine with a three-speed column-shift manual transmission. The engine bay is highly and correctly detailed. The cabin is inviting with an AM radio, heater, aftermarket turn signals have been added for safety; plus the dash is practically like new with all gauges crystal clear. Additionally the maroon carpet fits well throughout and all interior wood trim components are in excellent shape. The overall presentation of the chrome is also very nice and free of pitting; the stainless is of equal quality and the paint is described as great, as is the panel fit. To top off this pure presentation, the Ford has color-keyed steel wheels with stainless center caps and trim rings that are fit with Firestone bias-ply wide whitewall tires.
