1941 Ford Super Deluxe

With America having recently entered World War II, production of American cars was waning and 1941 was the last full year of production. The 1941 Ford “V-8” was very popular and the convertible was considered “the cat’s meow.” The flathead V-8 engine originally offered 65 horsepower, but had grown to 100 horsepower by the time this car was built in February, 1941.The car is resplendent in steel grey with dark red interior and black convertible top, piped in dark red to match the interior. If it looks vaguely familiar, that may be from the car having been used by Charlize Theron and Tobey Maguire in “Cider House Rules”with Michael Caine in 2010. The car first came to us in 2012 from its owner from Princeton, NJ and Naples, Florida who had owned it for more than 10 years. We then sold the car to a Pennsylvania surgeon, a collector who is now trading the car to us on a vintage Jaguar.
