Default Most Beautiful Flathead Ford Poll

If money was no object, what Flathead Ford would you have sitting in your garage?

Here is my choice:

A 1939 Deluxe Coupe. Sadly I don't own one but in my honest opinion it is the most beautiful Flathead Ford ever built. I know, opinions are like belly buttons, everybody has one.

What is your choice?

Model 40 coupes and roadsters are, in my view, the most beautiful. But that doesn't mean that's what would be in my garage. That choice would be a '51 Victoria-parked between my '32 5 window and my '53 F-100.

The guys who picked the Model 40 Roadster are correct. Everybody else is wrong ! .... HeHeHe
Unfortunately, my car has too many doors.

Any topless 35 ford. I have 3 to restore so imho I'm a lucky guy. I think that SSsssteamer convertible sedan is a beautiful car. None were sold in Australia so I will settle for my 35 roadster and 2 35 phaetons!!!!

I love them all, but if I was only allowed one, it would be a 39 deluxe cabriolet. ( Ironically, way down on the list would be what I have, a 48 short door coupe!)
