This Ford Custom DeLuxe V-8 Convertible is finished in Coral Flame unique to this body style. It was acquired from a museum several years ago by Mr. Jack Dunning. After the acquisition, the engine was rebuilt by the late John Forsythe at Fremont Auto Parts in Fremont, Ohio, while his own shop rebuilt the transmission and clutch and fitted an overdrive. The interior was reupholstered with LeBaron-Bonney materials and the top was replaced. The front seats are leather and the rear seats vinyl, in similar fashion to how the factory did it in 1951. The car has been rewired and the power top works properly.By Daniel Vaughan | Jan 2020
