1950 Ford Custom Deluxe Crestliner<\/strong> –\u00a0Ford raced against its traditional competitors to create a completely new vehicle after WWII, and it won the race with the 1949 Crestliner.\u00a0After nine years of war, the time changed the customers’ tastes. Ford noticed that and started working on a completely new vehicle while trying to sell pre-war cars with slightly new enhancements. GM and Chrysler did the same, but the big question was: “Who will bring the new car?” The answer came from Ford.\u00a0While the pre-war cars featured wide fenders and narrow engine compartments, Ford thought a “ponton-type” bodywork would do better, and it did. In its rush to launch the Crestliner, it cut corners and the rear doors. But that was not a problem in those times. It resulted in a two-door sedan with two round headlights and a taller hood. The rounded shapes and the sculptured door panels that mimicked older fenders’ shapes were influential for other carmakers in the years that followed, including the “Bullit nose” with a center chromed cone that resembled the nose cone from a P-51 Mustang fighter plane.<\/p>\n

We love the numerous directions you can go with an original classic! You can keep it exactly the same, use it as a base for a custom build, or simply add a modern drivetrain for a budget-friendly resto-mod. This beautiful Custom Deluxe Crestliner came to us from a local collection of all original early-50s Fords. Although it was restored a few years back, this classic Ford still presents extremely well and drives great. We recently added a new battery, installed an electric fuel pump, and took her for a 40-mile cruise around the lake with no issues. If you are in the market for a very clean and original 50’s era Ford with under 100k miles, we feel this Crestliner is one of the nicest you will find anywhere in this price range. Features include; Original Flathead 239 V8, 3-on-Tree, Two-Tone Paint, Vinyl Roof, Visor, Rear Fender Skirts, MagicAir Heat, Chrome Grille\/Mirror\/Bumpers, Factory AM Radio, Vent Windows, Spare Tire, 15″ Factory Wheels, and Thick 205\/75\/R15 White Wall Tires!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
