Default Not a Ford but worth a look.
I like it 'cause it was made the year mine was . . . almost, and even more "quirky". And a great story of the post war car era. The 1948 Davis Divan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCcqQOFayFU

Although it may have been slightly Ford related because of the 46-48 Lincoln push button doors it would have been more Ford related if it was the one that I saw on a few occasions as it spent time here in CT.
It is powered by a V8-60 flathead.

Not the one in the video with Leno.
The one in CCC resided here in Ct for a time.

I believe the CT one was at the Klingberg Show last year or the year before.
