fellas here is the new family member.Craigslist find i just picked it up from the second owner about mouth ago from Springfield Tenn area,pretty country btw..The story on car is the orginal owner sold it to a dealer in Louisiana where the prev owner bought it from in the earlier 70s.The family that sold it to me states that it has less than 25k miles on the car and it does show on the odometer..dont have any documents to back it up, but it really dont matter this old car is just to dam cool man alot of chacter and whole alot soul... Some time back when somebody put seat covers on the seats to cover the mohair which was cool.It has had one repaint from what i can tell.The car has not ran in 11 years it was missing the dizzy of the motor,just put that in! belt,hoses,fuel pump put all new brakes new set plug wires dam thing runs great!!! just to cool

Wow, super looking car. Wish I owned it.

Grandadeo · 11-04-2010, 08:16 PM

Hard to sing the blues with a find like that. Enjoy!

You mentioned "getting the stance right." Don't look wrong to me! I wouldn't change a thing. (Feel free to disregard my advice, however.)

Ted · 11-04-2010, 08:50 PM

Very nice indeed. It's nice to see a low mileage original.

Hey, the holes in your front seat look better than my whole car!

Jake H. · 11-04-2010, 09:50 PM

Oh, now that's a sweetheart of a Ford.

Makes mine look like a junkyard dog...

PeterC · 11-04-2010, 09:52 PM

Wow - you are a lucky dude indeed - stance is perfect as is IMHO. Here is my Coupe with stock stance so you can maybe think twice about that!

41panelmark · 11-04-2010, 09:52 PM

Fantastic!

Tim Brown · 11-04-2010, 09:54 PM

Very nice indeed!

Great looking 39' DeLuxe! Great find, too. Thanks for posting pics

Vic Piano · 11-05-2010, 07:53 AM

That looks like an excellent car and a super find, like others have said, I'd drive the wheels off of it just the way it is. We've had our '39 CS for 20 years and enjoy driving it all the time.

Barry B./ Ma. · 11-05-2010, 09:46 AM

Looks great! Whatever you do don't drop the front end down. I'd trade my nice roadster for that one so drive it, take care of it and have fun.

B-O-B · 11-05-2010, 09:50 AM

Very nice indeed. If I were you I'd go buy some lottery tickets. heh heh he

Brendan · 11-05-2010, 10:35 AM

just change the tire size, its easier and can be changed back, drive the hell out of it it's a nice car!

Tommy Gun · 11-05-2010, 08:01 PM

That's beautiful! Congrats on the find. I've been looking for that exact car for awhile now to haul the lttle guys around in. Some day.....

Russ/40 · 11-05-2010, 09:54 PM
