1941 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan

This example is 1 of 177,018 Deluxe Tudor sedans produced for the 1941 model year and is like a bit of a time capsule on wheels. Finished in its original basic black, the brown striped broadcloth seats do show a bit of age; however, they have stood up to the test of time and are still quite serviceable some 80+ years later. During the war, gas rationing made long trips out of reach for most Americans; as a result, many late pre-war model cars were just put up on blocks to wait out the war. Today, this fabulous Ford shows just over 24,630 miles on the odometer, which are believed to be actual. It is powered by its original flathead V-8 engine and remains in running and driving condition to this day. It is rather well-appointed with a factory radio and deluxe heater. According to the paperwork included with the car, this 1941 Ford has been part of the Haag Collection since 1974. In 2012, according to receipts, Thomas Haag ordered a laundry list of new parts for this car including fuel system items, such as a carburetor rebuild/repair kit, new electrical items for the ignition system, cooling system items, and brake parts including a new master cylinder. At about this same time, he also ordered a set of Firestone 6.00” X 16” whitewall tires on which the car sits today. These receipts are part of a file that accompanies the sale of the car. The engine retains its original oil bath air cleaner and has an accessory bolt-on oil filter. Most impressive under the hood is the set of trumpet horns, sure to alert motorists who are getting too close to your classic Ford to stay away. A rolling time capsule with unique features such as the vintage Santa Catalina Island windshield decal, makes this a jewel to be admired and preserved for generations to come.
