1946 Ford Super Deluxe Sedan

Owner Ben AKA "FlatHead"

Purchased from fellow club member as an original restored car. I have met the bloke who restored it in Melb he's from the Southern Hot Rod club and told me he finished it in about 1977 and it then got sold to Tassy. It was purchased from Tassy about 2 years ago and bought to Perth the owner only drove it a couple of time before Frank bought it. I then purchased it off frank as i fell in love with it the first time I drove it. Its bog stock just flathead, 3 speed, reversed mercury rims. All we have done so far is lower the front, tint the windows, fit white walls and air con. Just a cool family crusier cos the baby seat won't fit in the jailbar.

 

1945 Ford Jailbar Pickup.

Bought in Victoria after negotiating for a few years. Was bought over to perth as a driver and decided to give it a quick paint job. 2 Years later it actually hit the road again to debut at the 2006 Perth Hot Rod Show. The rear tub section which was an Australian well body was badly rusted so I constructed a complete new step side myself. This meant widening the guards 125mm to suit. The whole truck is pretty stock running a 24 stud flathead dressed up and a supra 5 speed gearbox. the truck was originally red and black but we changed it to ivory and black to give it that old time look. The inside looks all original but with a few mod cons like electric windows and CD player. It was built to be used and so far we have put a fair few km's on it. The future will bring a new rebuilt flathead with a few performance bits.
