Offered for sale is a beautifully hand crafted and road proven 1937 Ford coupe that is a tribute to the beauty and style of the cars made by Henry Ford. The original Ford coupes are getting very spendy now – many approaching $100K if they are of top quality. That opened up the market for Minotti, then Wild Rod and now Oze replicas that can be made to order, with modern modifications never dreamed of in the 1930s. This car is the best of both worlds, a vehicle that is built on a 37 Ford frame with 37 Ford registration, but loaded with modern stuff from bumper to bumper for drivability, safety, and dependability.
China sold by so called Speed Shops with their own name on ‘em? Can the car actually be driven, or is it just a full scale toy that must be handled with kid gloves so it won’t break when you roll it on and off the trailer? Can you get the car registered as a 1937 Ford where you live, or will you have to have it smog tested and taxed as a new car? If you are painstaking about this process, you may come to the conclusion that this is the car for you.
You could not build this car for the sell price if all your labor was donated at no cost. The car has about 7000 road proven miles on two cross country tours. It looks great, still has enough appeal to grab trophies at shows, and will not leave you on the side of the road if you drive it. And, speaking of road trips, if you choose the BUY IT NOW option we will throw in the matching trailer as a bonus. Thanks for looking!
Potential buyers are invited to compare this ride to other 37 Ford Clones on the market. We offer this very complete and 100% functional coupe, complete with a matching utility trailer for a fraction of the cost of those cars. Many “pro built” spec cars use a low end rolling chasses with stamped frames that can be bought mail order for under $2500. Is that what you want under your butt? And, check the drive train components: are they top shelf American parts or wannabe pieces from
This car does not have a steel body – it is a first quality Minotti replica that fits the original 37 Ford boxed chassis like a glove with no blemishes or weak areas prone to chipping and stress cracking. The beautiful Tangerine paint demands attention wherever you go. The builder of this car overlooked no details in its construction. The front end runs independent suspension with rack and pinion steering, tubular A arms and disk brakes. The engine is a 350 CID Bowtie that is dialed in to produce more than 300 horsepower with HEI, and block hugger headers. The transmission is a TH350 with Lokar shifter and the custom fabricated driveline hooks up to a 9” Ford rear end supported by parallel leaf springs. The seats, interior door panels, unique instrument console, dash and headliner are sculpted in wheat tweed to add dramatic effect to the swoopy lines of the car. Nice detailing in the trunk, hidden turn signals and taillights, a Hagan fuel door, and many other high quality details set this car apart.
