** Ford Sportsman convertibles were produced by Ford Motor Company between 1946 and 1947 a few being titled as 1948 models. In my mind the most Iconic Post War Vehicle ever built!
**When I was 16 yrs of age my Uncle had a Sportsman that he had purchased new he gave it to me as my high school beater (my first car). she was not a concourse winner but I loved her all the same. When you drive a Sportsman everyday you find out her little nuances quickly. The hydraulic window lifts rarely worked. and boy did she squeak and rattle . I named her the "Stage coach". affectionately of course as I loved the lines and the Wood was outrageous.
**A few years ago. I found a nice 1946 Ford Sportsman posted at $140. 00 and thought wow that is a deal. I flew out and test drove what I felt was "the perfect car". in my mind I had discounted all those quirky nuances I had known those years ago. I started her up and put her in gear and started off driving. and instantly the "Stage coach". came back to life. rattles and rolls. UGH. this was not the memory I wanted.
**The idea came to me to make a Wood cladded car. while visiting a Car show I saw a 1948 Chevrolet Country Club and thought. "I can make a Ford Sportsman Tribute!". I asked the owner of the 1948 Chevrolet Country Club if I could drive it - he threw me the keys- amazingly the car drove quietly no rattles - no shakes- no rolling!!. Nirvana. the idea was born.
**I purchased the nicest Ford Convertible (Super Deluxe) I could find in the Western USA (Nevada) a dry weather great example owned by a US Senator (Retired) I had Solid Hardwood panels installed and what I have here is what I think is the Embodiment of the perfect Post Car Vehicle. This is in no way a "Fire sale". I will pick the buyer of this ole gal. I have not used her at all (Covered in my Garage) I have not allowed anyone to see or even sit inside her (smells new) zero flaws.
The buyer will have all the bragging rights.
