1936, Std vs Deluxe

[itsa52]

I know it has been discussed or at least mentioned several times inthe past, But I am not able to find it.. So,, What are the differences between the two.. Not that it will make much difference, I like them all, just don't know the visible differences

Trim mostly, two tail lights, nicer interior, badging, trying to do this from memory. See if you can get a copy of the Early Ford V8 book on 35/36 Fords, lots of good info.

They weren't a lot different like they were later in 1938. One tail light. One windshield wiper. A little difference in interior color & furnishing. The three window coupe was a Deluxe only body and maybe the convertibles too. The book isn't too expensive. I'd like to get a full set of the books some day. You can never have too much information.

Deluxe had chromed windshield frame, Standard was painted. Same for the grill.

Lots of small differences, if you're building a 'show car', insignifigant if you have a 'driver'.

Chrome windshield surround.

Banjo wheel, and the Deluxes also had the additional ad-on piece below the garnish mouldings. DD

If your trying to do a quick ID remember it was very simple to change parts between a deluxe and a standard over the years and often done. So don't depend on just a few items, it's the whole package.

Standard had a cigar lighter but no ash-tray. Also I think the round louvers in front of the horns were chrome on the deluxe, painted on the standard. Standard had one horn.

For sure true for '35, not sure for '36.

Edit to add: My '36 Phaeton is the only '36 I've known and all of 'em were Deluxe, so, two horns.

Thanks,, Looking at a survivor .. Most of what has been mentioned pretty sure it's a Standard, with possibly a couple upgrades

I believe only the later 1937-40 V-8 60 HP cars had 3.5 inch wide rims. Late 36 deluxe had wood grained dashes. All 36 deluxes had water temp and oil pressure gages.

With all due respect the 36 std had 3.5" wide rims.My 36 std coupe had all 4 on it + the spare.I believe it is noted in the 35-36 Ford V8 Club book.
