The redesigned Ford model line for 1953 helped the company to outsell Chevrolet for the first tim since 1930. This Tudor Sedan was originally sold in the Midwestern part of the United States. A short time after acquiring the car, the owner passed away in a farming accident. The Ford was stored by his widow until she passed in 1977. The car was then purchased by Jerry Lee Lewis of rock-and-roll fame. Later, it became part of the Art Astor Collection in California.
This Tudor has dark green paint, only showing minor scratches and a few chips or dents. It retains its original interior with beige cloth upholstery, brown rubber floor mats and a burgundy-finished dashboard, as well as an original radio with a speaker mounted above the dashboard. Under the hood is an L-head V-8 engine displacing 221 cubic-inches and offering 85 horsepower. There is a three-speed sliding-gear manual transmission and four-wheel drum brakes.
In 2013, the car was offered for sale at RM Auction's Scottsdale sale. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $24,740, including of buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | May 2016
