Default Rare barn fresh Ford V8, Deutsch Cabriolet for sale in Germany

Just thought I'd pass on an advertisement I noticed on the German Oldtimermarkt.de web page for a very interesting German bodied 1939 Ford.

The seller is offering the following (translated to English from the German ad):

"Ford V8, Deutsch Cabrio, 4 seat, YOM 1939, 90 HP, 3569 ccm, 20879 kilometers, Two door, unrestored condition, almost all complete parts, good sheet metal, wood needs renewing, rolling condition, 14,500.- Euro or best offer (about $19,093.- OBO), telephone from the US: 011-49-177-213-5968.

An over 70 year old rare antique car, for which almost all of the original parts are included and are essentially not yet restored. With this German production, Ford V8 with its 4 seat Deutsch custom body you acquire a very rare automobile. The custom bodied cabriolet body was essentially produced by hand by the custom body company Deutsch in Cologne. The photo shows an original drawing (artistic rendering) from the sales brochure from 1939."

....and the original ad in German:
"Ford V8, Deutsch Cabrio, 4-sitzig, Bj.1939, 90 PS, 3560 ccm, 20879 km, 2 Türen, unrestaurierter Zustand, fast komplette Teile, gutes Blech, Holz zu erneuern, rollfähig, VB € 14500,-. Tel. 0177/2135968

Ein über 70 Jahre alter seltener Oldtimer, von dem fast alle Teile noch im Original vorhanden sind und der im Wesentlichen noch nicht restauriert ist.
Mit diesem FORD V8 aus deutscher Produktion erwerben Sie wegen der 4-sitzigen Deutsch-Karosse ein sehr seltenes Fahrzeug.
Die Cabriolet-Karosse wurde in überwiegender Handarbeit bei der Karosseriefirma Deutsch in Köln hergestellt.
Das Bild zeigt eine Original-Prospektzeichnung des Wagens von 1939."


From the ad, the car is located in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Here is the link to the original ad:

FWIW, in June of 2012, a similar 1936 custom bodied German Cabriolet (made by Drauz) sold at an RM auction for $396,000 ! (http://www.rmauctions.com/lots/lot.cfm?lot_id=1049656 )


Though I do not know or have any relationship to the seller, it sure sounds like it would be an interesting car to restore or preserve (if good enough condition).

Fordially,
