Description

This lot is no longer available

The Ford Motor Company introduced its legendary V8 engine decades before arch-rival Chevrolet offered an engine with more than six cylinders. Evocatively known as Fordors (four doors) and Tudors (two doors, sedan and coupe), Ford’s lusty V8 sedans and coupes provided a new soundtrack for 1930s America. And if you wanted to run some moonshine, then a Ford was probably the least expensive way to go into business!
