1937 Ford Coupe

3706-PHX 1937 FORD COUPE

This 1937 Ford Coupe has come a long way since gracing the pages of Rod & Custom magazine back in September of '72. The brown metallic paint may show some battle scars from years of cruising, but it still gleams in the sunlight, capturing the timeless allure of this classic custom. With a raked stance courtesy of polished aluminum wheels - 14s leading the charge and 15s bringing up the rear - all wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A rubber, this vintage Ford means business. The front tires, at 195/70R14, might seem modest, but the beefy 255/70R15s out back suggest there's some serious power waiting to be unleashed.

Swing open the door and you'll be greeted by a tan interior that's aged like a fine wine. The burlap-style upholstery on the bench seat has weathered the years with grace, offering both comfort and character. Chrome accents around the windows and doors add a touch of flash, while the leather-wrapped three-bar steering wheel feels like an old friend in your hands. The Stewart Warner gauge package keeps you in the loop, and the Pioneer AM/FM cassette player, paired with an underdash vacuum gauge, is ready to provide the perfect driving soundtrack.

Lift the hood and you'll find a meticulously detailed 289 cubic inch Ford V8, eagerly awaiting your command. A trio of Holley two-barrel carburetors perched atop an aluminum intake manifold hints at the power on tap, while polished accessories like the radiator catch can, fuel rail with chrome filter & fittings, alternator, main fan pulley, water pump, and timing cover add a dash of style to the engine bay. Stainless steel shorty headers funnel spent gases into a custom dual exhaust system with aftermarket mufflers, creating a throaty rumble that's sure to announce your arrival. A smooth-shifting Tremec 5-speed manual transmission harnesses the V8's power, sending it back to an 8-inch rear axle. And when it's time to rein in the ponies, manual brakes with discs up front provide confident, fade-free stops.
