This 1936 Ford Cabriolet offers a beautiful journey back in time, capturing the elegance and ingenuity of pre-war American automotive design. Powered by its 3.6L Flathead V8 engine paired with a 3-speed sliding mesh manual transmission, this Cabriolet delivers a driving experience that embodies Ford's 1930s craftsmanship. Single-family owned since 1958, the car has been a cherished piece of family history, meticulously maintained and preserved over the decades. The exterior is finished in a classic blue, which retains a rich luster and accentuates the graceful lines and curves of the body. Adding to its timeless look, the brightwork shines brightly, including the period-correct Ford greyhound hood ornament, while the original hubcaps remain intact, providing an authentic touch.
Inside, the Cabriolet's tan interior invites you to experience true vintage comfort. The upholstery is in generally good condition, with one notable tear on the front seat, a reflection of its journey through time, but it comes with a complete front seat kit, making it ready for restoration without compromising its originality. The 9-ball shifter brings an extra touch of nostalgic charm, and the rumble seat in the back provides additional seating, perfect for open-air drives shared with friends or family.
Recent replacements of the hydraulic brakes ensure reliable stopping power, and the emergency brake is fully functional, a rare feature that showcases the car's thorough upkeep. The 3.6L Flathead V8 is as responsive and smooth as ever, while the 3-speed manual transmission adds to the authentic feel of driving a true classic. The attention to maintenance and preservation is evident in every detail of this Ford, from its mechanical preservation to its well-preserved exterior and interior features.
With a single-family ownership history dating back to 1958, this Ford Cabriolet has a provenance that few cars from this era can claim. It's rare to find such an unbroken line of care and respect, making it a truly exceptional find for vintage enthusiasts and collectors alike. A testament to the golden age of American cars, this 1936 Ford Cabriolet is ready to be driven, admired, and appreciated by its next caretaker.
