The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Top three Ford Products, '32

Things change. When I was a kid, a '40 Deluxe coupe was the cat's ass; now, I much prefer a '39 Deluxe (or maybe even a '40 Standard).

I have a '51 club coupe. I know that Ford enthusiasts like the "single spinners", but the general public really likes the '51; I think it has to do with the chrome on the windsplits (which I used to hate) and the more complicated grille. It has a real "fifties" vibe that the "hoi-polloi" can connect to.
