This 1938 Ford Hot Flat Head V8 Hot Rod coupe is Red with a White and Red Interior. Having spent virtually all its life in southern California, this classic, all steel 1938 Ford Hot Rod Coupe started with a straight and rust free body. The previous owner purchased it at the RM Auction in Monterey in 2006 (Lot: 111). The paint is excellent and the interior appears brand new including the headliner, panels, seats and carpets with a correspondingly matched trunk. Its original steel running boards were refitted and covered in the correct rubber. The 59A engine block (85hp plus, 221 cu. in. Ford Flathead V8 engine) was balanced and blue-printed. High performance Offenhauser heads and an intake housing three two-barrel Stromberg carburetors were added. With its 3/4 cam, headers and electronic ignition this Flathead runs well. It is fitted with its original rebuilt steering, three-speed transmission, sliding gear transmission, three-quarter floating rear axle and four-wheel hydraulic brakes. The headlight and parking light switches still reside in the center of the steering wheel along with the horn button. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an all-steel hot rod of high caliber.
