Default Re: Meet “ Stainless “ - the 1936 Ford

Hi Everyone, Jim thanks for the post.

This is a beautiful car. It's explained in the book that was published on the collection, but the finish on this car is polished stainless and the original finish was more of a brushed look. Something that happened during the restoration caused this to be their best option.

These three stainless Fords show the original finish. They are in the Crawford Auto-Aviation collection of the Western Reserve Historical Society in Cleveland.

The car in the V-8 Foundation Museum is really cool, and I applaud Mr. Floyd for doing the restoration and being so VERY generous to "our" Smithsonian.

As cool as the Stainless car is, I'm always drooling over the '36 rolling chassis they have.
