Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1939 Ford Deluxe Convertible Sedan, a rare body style, underwent refurbishment in 1994 and earned an AACA award. The car features a flathead V8, manual transmission, and was recently serviced, though it shows cosmetic wear including paint cracking and oxidized brightwork.
Condition
6
The car was refurbished in 1994 and received an AACA Senior First Prize, indicating good condition at that time. However, current photos from February 2025 show paint cracking around the trunk, oxidized brightwork, and a discolored soft top, which are signs of wear. Corrosion is also noted underneath, and the interior shows some age despite being described as brown leather. While mechanically sound with recent fluid changes, the cosmetic issues detract from a higher rating, placing it in the 'Good' category as some reconditioning is required.
