As the first post-war Ford Victoria, the 1951 Ford Victoria, marked a new era in car design with its hardtop profile and wraparound rear glass " a design so popular that Ford sold more Victorias this year than coupes and convertibles combined. Dressed in a striking combination of Greenbrier Metallic and Sea Island Green, this Ford Victoria stands out with its smooth, top-driver quality paint job. The clean chrome trim, shining chrome hubcaps, and beauty rings add a touch of class. The glass and rubber trim are nice, enhancing its already impressive appearance.
The interior, appearing to be replaced with correct and stock style, includes a green velour and white vinyl bench seat with seat belts, stock dash and cluster are in great shape, housing newer Classic Instruments gauges that blend seamlessly with the vintage vibe. The aftermarket AC vents and controls are discreetly tucked under the dash, as to not disrupt the classic aesthetic. The white vinyl headliner and matching visors complete the look, while the custom middle console insert with cup holders adds a touch of practicality.
Under the hood you will find the 239 Flathead V8 engine, recently rebuilt with just over 8,000 miles on this engine, promising many more miles of enjoyable driving. Paired with a 2-speed automatic Ford-O-Matic transmission, believed to be original, it offers a smooth and authentic driving experience. The car has been updated to a 12-volt system for reliable performance, and the Wilwood front disc brakes ensure modern stopping power.
