Ground up built 1937 Ford Slantback Street Rod ZZ4 350 V8 Auto A/C Art Morrison
Want a super cool cruiser that's ready to roll? How about one with some of the best vintage styling ever draped over two doors and four tires? If the answer is a resounding “YES”, this 1937 Ford Slantback Sedan is exactly the car you've been searching for! With its reliable Chevrolet V8, smooth automatic transmission and rich two-tone color combination, this custom is an ideal classic for anyone who enjoys exploring the open road. If you're looking to add a little spice to your weekend routine, here's the perfect way to take Sunday drives to a whole new level!
BODYWORK/TRIM
With their wind-swept design and classic good looks, late-'30s Fords have always been highly desirable cars. Not surprisingly, gearheads, chop shops and 70 years' worth of dedicated fans have elevated them to one of hot rodding's greatest cultural icons. And this awesome Slantback has, with the help of a thorough, frame-off restoration, been transformed into one super slick street rod. The car's build began with a complete tear down of its rock-solid Henry Ford steel fuselage. Once that fuselage's sinuous panels were massaged to near perfection, glossy two-tone base was married to a thick layer of clear. And today, this sizzling classic is a fully sorted boulevard king that's likely caused more than its fair share of slackjaw stumbles and clumsily missed steps!
The beauty of a well-done street rod is often found in the simplicity of its execution. And in this case, modifications were kept subtle and classy. Enhancements here include a smoothed hood, tucked bumpers, rounded door corners, and custom fuel filler door. Traditional painted steel wheels with polished trim rings and center caps give the car a timeless understated look.
V8 Power
In the auto enthusiast world, there are few bigger faux pas than something that promises performance but doesn't deliver. “It looks fast” just doesn't cut it with real car guys, so the storied flathead that might traditionally power this sedan has officially been swapped for a hot aluminum headed ZZ4 350 cubic inch Chevrolet small block crate engine. A proven Edelbrock 4bbl carb and HEI distributor round out a very reliable power package. Chrome accessories and smooth firewall add style points and showcase the builds attention to detail.
DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION
Bottom side, this Ford's fully finished body rides on a modern Art Morrison chassis that's been assembled to exacting standards. The proven small block torques a 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission, which spins a trick independent rear axle. That custom drivetrain pushes a familiar Mustang II style front half opposite a polished Jag-style independent rear suspension worthy of its own showcase. Adjustable coil over shocks mounted at each corner. Turns come courtesy of modern power rack-and-pinion steering. Quick stops are a cinch thanks to, power-assisted calipers, which squeeze vented discs at all four corners. At the edges of the floor, 2.5-inch, true-dual exhaust breathes through coated pipes and throaty performance mufflers. And everything is well planned, well executed and ready to work its magic!
INTERIOR
Pop this sedan's doors and you'll find a clean leatherette interior with excellent fit and finish. Much nicer than traditional factory fodder. A custom upholstered bench seat sits behind a smoothed and pinstriped dash. The driver controls a stylish leather-wrapped Lecarra steering wheel and is kept informed by custom installed VDO gauges. Comfort is met with the addition of air conditioning and tunes come courtesy of a modern stereo system hidden away in the glove box.
