This 1946 Ford Hot Rod was a labor of love for the builder – featuring many wonderfully executed body modifications that add up to one mean, slammed looker of a Ford. Not only does this Ford have a killer look, but it also drives the part as well.
The car is a Goodguys award winner for "Best Chop Top" and there is no denying how well it was done. The angle chopped roof still maintains the full size rear window so visibility is now what it always was with the added benefit of the smokin’ good new looks. Remember those bodylines that the ’46 Ford had? Well they are all gone now on all four fenders. The headlights have been frenched, trunk shaved, custom bumpers fitted, and don’t miss the Oldsmobile grill. The body is all steel and done right. If we caught you looking, you know what it is.
The Ford gets its power from a smooth running 350 hooked to 700R4 transmission, and the car utilizes a Camaro front subframe which greatly improves the handling of the car. She’s easy to drive thanks to power steering and power brakes, and wide whitewall tires and Cadillac hubcaps give the car the look. The car drives great on the street and rolls down the highway with ease with the help of the overdrive transmission.
Completing the look is a deep maroon paint job with custom pin striping and a 1960’s style hotrod interior. Creature comforts include heat and AC so you can cruise in comfort.
