1947 Ford Bootlegger's Coupe, Short Door Coupe, Working Man's Coupe

Vehicle Description

This is a 1947 Ford Bootlegger's Coupe, but the Title has as a 1948. I have owned the vehicle for 25 years and garage kept in a climate-controlled environment and is weather-proofed. The car is driven once a month for leisure activity (parades, shows, etc.).The body is what is described as a "Resto-rod" meaning it has all the original features like the stainless steel. However, the rear bumper is a 1946 because it did not bumper when I bought it and the 1946 had the "Ford" embossed which is why I added it.The exterior of the vehicle is an Autum Mist with Chrome accents, and the interior is a custom grey tweed. Additional to the interior, the vehicle originally came with a "jump seat" for the front but I replaced it with two bucket seats and installed a custom rear bench seat since there was not a back seat when I purchased it. All the windows have been tinted.All the chrome on the dash is new, it has a tilt and telescopic steering column. All gauges are new and still has the original emergency brake and original flow through ventilation is still in working condition.The vehicle has been lowered three inches front and raised four inches in the back to create a better stance for the vehicle.The tires are fairly new (5k miles on them) with custom spoke rims, but they are not considered a full spoke wheel.The engine is 350 Chevrolet motor and 350 Chevrolet transmission with nostalgic long shifter, small comp-cam, HEI Distributor, 650 Carbirator Dual Line, power-steering with a Saginaw steering box, front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, dual master cylinder mounted under vehicle, custom exhaust, drop tube axel front end, Chevrolet rear end with 373 gears, new gas tank and fuel system.The undercarriage has been finsihed in black and painted the color of the car as seen in the pictures posted. It's a driver!
