As you can see in the pictures and video this is a beautiful example of the styling of the first new post-war Ford's !! 1946 marked a pivotal year in the transition of the Ford motor company, from vital military manufacturing back to civilian vehicle manufacturing. With the american car market in decline, as well as henry Ford's health, Ford motor company threw everything they had at the new models in 1946 in an attempt to revive the car market, and boy did they succeed !! We have been asked to sell this vehicle by a long-time close family friend who is 73 and has been a collector for most of his adult life and has decided to down-size his collection, lucky you !!

There is a nice article detailing the history of this car in this magazine which we have a copy of and will include with the sale. If you like attention then this car is for you !! This classic Super Deluxe coupe is a nice - dry - solid - texas vehicle and boy does it show !! In my opinion this beauty belongs in a museum !! *** this vehicle is located in chandler, texas which is approximately a 1.5 hour drive from dallas, texas and will need to be picked up or shipped from that location. We work with several large shipping companies and can assist the new buyer in securing shipping at the buyers expense. *** this is an excerpt from the an article written in volume no. 5 of early Ford v8 times magazine, where this '46 Ford is featured on the cover: history of car: "this black Super Deluxe coupe was sold new from the e.j. Murphy, inc. Ford dealership in new london connecticut on 1-2-1947. The owners manual is dated october 1, 1946 and the radio manual is a 1947 version. The seats are done in m-16503-k Super Deluxe mohair and the door panels are done in m-16503-m Super Deluxe sidewall cloth. The car has a mixture of september and october 1946 glass. According to the stampings on the patent plate, the car was assembled at the buffalo assembly plant probably in november or december 1946. This car would have been among the last to be sold as a 1946 because as of 2-17-1947, titles were changed to reflect the 1947 model year without the benefit of a styling change." originality: "the current mileage on this car is 6590 (in 1996). This figure is accurate. There is a connecticut safety registration in the car dated 6-6-53. The recorded mileage is 4317. Billy r. Jarret bought the car from anna welch the widow of the original owner, john welch, 11-24-67. According to billy's recollection, the car had 5805 miles on it when he bought it. The mileage was low because the welch's lived in an older residential neighborhood in new london and did not have room on their property for a garage. Not wanting to leave their new car out in the weather, mr. Welch rented a garage to keep it in a block and a half from their home. Mr. Welch worked as a printer in the downtown area near where they lived. It was nearly as far to the garage as it was the other way to work so mr. Welch walked." "billy r. Jarret was in the navy in new london. He often bought older cars and financed them through the bank. He usually drove the cars while he was paying on the loan and then would take the cars home to his parents in north carolina and find another car. In this manner, he had around twenty collector cars when he retired from the navy. He recalls taking mrs. Welch and his family on occasional sunday outings in the 1946 coupe. Rusty davis purchased the car from billy jarret on 11-13-1994. At that time the car had 6544 miles on the odometer." at the heart of this beautiful 1946 Ford Super Deluxe coupe is the original - strong - 239 cid flathead v8 motor that is running very well indeed.
