Eugene “Bob” Gregory was hired by Edsel Ford in 1931, and quickly climbed the ladder to the top of Ford’s new design department in 1935. His design ingenuity was seen on Ford’s, Mercury’s and the Lincoln Zephyrs. The 1939 Ford is arguably the most stylish Ford of its time, all due to Eugene and his talented design team.

The black exterior is complimented by wide whitewall tires, polished spider wheel caps, beauty rings and dual spotlights. Moving this Ford is a flathead engine fitted with dual exhaust, and paired with a manual transmission. The interior has gray upholstery, a banjo steering wheel and a factory clock.

This beauty of a car has been under the care of the same owner for almost 30 years. It has been well taken care of both cosmetically and mechanically.
