I am selling my 1938 Ford Standard Coupe.The “standard” has that art deco look with the grill work that extends back to the cowl.VERY UNIQUE.This is being sold as a driving project.All the HARD WORK is done!!!Now you get to do the fun part and personalize it with your choice of interior and paint.
The car now has 3 coats of epoxy primer.It looks good on its own…you could leave it this way or paint it to your liking.I left the interior undone because everyone has their own taste when it comes to color and style.It is simply a blank canvas.
The car needs: a wiring harness.I have wired the car to start it but it will require the remaining.It needs lights.I do have the front light buckets as shown.The interior as mentioned.It will require a hood latch and trunk latch assembly. It also needs all glass.
The engine could use some chrome accessories…but that’s a personal choice.
