1936 Ford Other Ford Models

STK 4107 1936 Ford Phaeton The 1936 Ford Phaeton is an iconic example of pre-war American automotive design, known for its elegant styling and open-air luxury. Part of Fords Model 68 lineup, the Phaeton was a four-door convertible that combined practicality with sophistication. The Phaeton represented the final years of true open touring cars before fully enclosed sedans became dominant. It was a very limited production model only 15,500 were manufactured in 1936. This impressive Phaeton is from the collection of the late Ford restoration specialist Dennis Carpenter and was the beneficiary of a comprehensive restoration by the Carpenter team in 2010. A striking coat of Sheridan Blue was carefully applied and looks amazing. All chrome is outstanding with accents that include the classic hood ornament and an impressive beige convertible top. Factory spider wheels with V8 hubcaps, trim rings mount Firestone 6.00 x 16 wide-white bias ply tires. The interior is completely restored with seating that is upholstered in stately brown leather that looks much better than new. A stunning burlwood dash holds factory gauges behind a beautiful classic banjo wheel. Every detail is finished to perfection. This handsome Ford is powered by a built 365ci Cadillac V8 (circa 1956-58), bored .060 over and fitted with a 3x2-barrel intake/carbs. It runs as smooth as silk, produces substantially more horsepower than original flathead and is backed by a 3-speed manual transmission w/factory floor mounted shifter. A fully restored, spotless chassis mounts front/rear transverse leaf spring suspension and the mechanical brakes have been upgraded to 4-wheel hydraulic drum units. Finally, the electricals have been converted to a 12-volt system. Because of its limited production numbers and elegant design, the Ford Phaeton is a highly sought-after collectors vehicle. It is appreciated for its classic styling, historical significance and connection to Fords golden age of V8 innovation. ALL VEHICLES SOLD AS IS .
