This jaunty Roadster is painted in a handsome and period-correct combination of Dearborn Blue acrylic enamel with contrasting Tacoma Cream wheels and matching triple pinstripes on the beltline and hood louvers. It is equipped with double whitewall Firestone tires, a wood-grained dash by Benny Estes, a Sandoz rearview mirror clock, a rare and original greyhound radiator cap, and the correct canvas T-14 and interior, which features a copra leather driver’s seat and vinyl rumble seat from LeBaron Bonney. A photo-documented frame-off restoration was completed between 1991 and 1993, during which time the engine and drivetrain were completely rebuilt. Since then, it has been meticulously cared for and driven more than 6,800 careful miles, assuring the new owner that it is both properly sorted and reliable. The owner notes that he has driven the car from both Virginia to Auburn, Indiana, and Virginia to Reading, Pennsylvania, to attend Early Ford V-8 Club of America meets.

Attesting to the quality of the work, the car has been the recipient of an AACA First Junior Award at Hershey in 1994 and a Senior Award in Maryland in 1995, as well as three Preservation Awards in 1999, 2004, and 2009. It has been the recipient of multiple Dearborn Awards from the Early Ford V-8 Club of America, and judging sheets from these events are available for inspection, along with extensive documentation and service records.
