I saw this 1936 Ford 5 window coupe advertised for sale in Canton, OH about a year ago. When I inquired it was sold. Does anyone know where it ended up or who bought it?

I could be wrong, but I believe that car was at the Gettysburg EFV8 meet and for sale, last year. Not that it helps you with knowing who bought it...

Don't know anything about this car, except that it is sweet. I like it.

This was the 1936 Ford Five Window Coupe that was "for sale" at the Early Ford V8 Nationals held at Gettysburg June 2014. While it is painted a similar colour, there are subtle differences that seems to indicate that it may be a different car? This car doesn't have Vent Windows, Spot Lights or Greyhound Mascot. The rear Fender Skirts could have been removed? Are they the same car?

I've never seen draft deflectors/wind wings like that.

I'm sorry, but you can't beat a '35 or '36 Coupe either three window OR five window!! Beautiful car!!

mercman from oz, It also has different wheel covers. I don't think it is the same car. However, it is also a beautiful car. Do you know how much they were asking for it and did they sell it?

Here is another view.

mercman from oz · 04-14-2015, 08:27 PM

In this view, you can easily tell that these are 2 different cars. In addition to the items mentioned in my previous Post, this car has a bright Windshield Frame that the other car doesn't have. These 1936 Fords are exceptionally well styled. I have no idea of the Price being asked for the one for sale at Gettysburg.

Almost forgot about "curb feelers". Neat car.

mjdunn · 04-15-2015, 05:13 AM

Those curb feelers really work. I had some on my 1949 Mercury coupe I had in High School.

mjdunn · 04-15-2015, 05:21 AM

Oh by the way Henry/Kokomo, I went to High School in Marion, IN. Have you ever heard of Dunn Water Conditioning in Marion & Kokomo. I owned that and sold it to my son. The business has been there 61 years. I drive my car to Marion a lot because I have a summer cabin in Fairmount, IN.

Why would anyone try to "gild" the lilly ?

One car has a chrome windshield frame, the other does not. One has a greyhound hood ornament, the other does not. One has spot lights, the other does not. Different Road Lights arrangement. I am guessing that these are two different cars.
