Modern upgrades such as a stereo CD player discreetly placed in the glove compartment blend seamlessly with the old-school aesthetics. All-new gauges ensure functionality, right down to the working clock, complemented by a vintage heater for those cooler days.
This remarkable 1946 Ford Deluxe Coupe has been converted to a 12V negative ground system and bears a clean title, ensuring peace of mind for the discerning classic car enthusiast.
