Used 1946 Ford Super Deluxe for sale in Crete, Illinois
For sale in our Chicago showroom is this classic 1946 Ford Super Deluxe. The ’46 is a smooth body style with, at the time, a powerful V8. The flat head V8s have gained quite a following recently, and restorers hunt for them to use in the classics. While not known for being a powerhouse, they give a smooth power band with plenty of torque. This coupe is sporting one such example. Powered by a 221 cubic inch modified flat head V8 matched with a 3-speed column-shifted manual transmission, this is an authentic driver. The V8 produced near 60 horsepower when new, but thanks to some Offenhauser heads, an upgraded Comp camshaft, and a few other improvements, power has been bumped up to an estimated 75 horsepower. These upgrades and power boost make cruising with more modern cars easier. Fresh red paint has been laid over the original sheet metal giving a like-new appearance. A larger clutch has been installed giving better gripping power, as well as longer life expectancy, making for a more robust and reliable drive train. This slightly modified antique makes for a great cruiser and is sure to get you smiling. Inside the car youll find classic bench seats and the original dash to take you back in time. Options include: AM Radio, Hub Caps, and White Wall Tires. For more information on this ’46 Ford Super Deluxe, contact our Chicago showroom at (708) 444-4488 or Chicago@GatewayClassicCars.com.
