Description

Painted flames over a two-tone orange and silver layout, this 1947 Ford Deluxe was built to get noticed. The body has been cleaned up with a bumper delete and dressed with a V-butt windshield and sport mirrors, keeping the front end tight and tidy. The wheel setup is staggered for a proper rake, with 15-inch fronts and 17-inch rears wrapped in 205/60R15 and 225/50R17 BFGoodrich rubber. Those wheels sit right inside the fenders thanks to an upgraded front suspension and give this vehicle a solid hot rod stance.

Tan vinyl buckets set the tone inside, matched by custom door panels and a center console that extends through the cabin. The floor-mounted shifter gives it a clean layout, while the auxiliary gauges and tilt column bring in the right level of driver control. The Clarion stereo is console-mounted to keep the dash uncluttered and the rear seat has a split layout that visually mirrors the front, giving it a symmetrical, finished look from front to back.

Power comes from a ZZ4 350ci V8 fitted with a 4-barrel carburetor and aluminum intake. Exhaust exits through a set of shorty headers into glasspack-style mufflers for a clean, deep sound. A 3-speed automatic handles shifting, and the front rides on an independent suspension with disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. The battery has been relocated to the trunk for a clean bay and better balance, and the setup keeps everything low, simple, and built to drive.
