Let's see your 1937 Ford.

There was a time when the 1937 Ford was considered an "ugly duckling" by some auto enthusiasts. I never held that opinion. And these days many have come to appreciate the beauty of the 1937 Ford. I love the beautiful art deco Zephyr influenced design of the 1937 Ford. My favorite pre-war Ford.

Please post a photo of your 1937 Ford car or truck. Thanks.

Here's one of mine when it was assembled in bare metal before painting. It has been wedge chopped a bit, so isn't so accepted here, but it will be a nice car when finished. I'm in the final stages of blocking now and will be house of kolor jet black when done.

Found this for a buddy , one owner 60000 Mls , a little bit of filler ( well quite a lot) around the lower trunk panel. chassis and motor done many moons ago. Motor runs super quiet, not driven in 30 yrs.as original as they come.

Re: Let's see your 1937 Ford
 

We have owned and driven this one over 30 yrs dated in it kids grew up in it. So essentially it's now a one owner car. All flathead ,though pretty modified.

Re: Let's see your 1937 Ford
 

37 styling is one of the best, especially the taillights.

Hey Max. Does that 37 have that engine in it that I had a pic of in your shop a few yr's ago. If so could you post a pic of the engine in the 37? Thanks Walt

Re: Let's see your 1937 Ford
 

50+ years ago up til about 10 yrs ago I used to think they were ugly ducklings. I'm even starting to like the 38-39 standards now.

Re: Let's see your 1937 Ford
 

My dad has always said that Chrysler stole the design for the PT Cruiser from Ford's 37. What do you think?

My aunt with my uncle's 37 in 1945:

Re: Let's see your 1937 Ford
 

I am posting these photos for my faraway friend Chris. Chris (aka: SWOOPNZ) had purchased this car right in my "back yard", here in Wisconsin and had it shipped to his stomping grounds in New Zealand.
Chris WILL get this car looking beautiful. He has a long track record of doing so with others he has "snatched away" from us boys here in the USA.
I am proud of Chris in his perseverance and his obvious courage to tackle challenges many would be too frightened to take on.
