1937 Ford Slantback Sedan Street Rod
This striking 1937 Ford Slantback sedan is a rare blend of classic design and modern performance. The all-steel body remains as solid and original as the day it left the factory in 1937, with a gleaming Merlot Burgundy exterior that beautifully contrasts with the tan leather interior. Its timeless sloping rear design not only adds a sleek, aerodynamic profile but also enhances trunk space, passenger carrying capacity.
Under the hood, this Slantback is powered by a ZZ4 350ci Chevrolet Small Block crate V8, producing a healthy 355 horsepower. The engine is mated to a THM 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission, offering smooth, responsive shifts and an overdrive gear for the longer highway adventures. The exhaust is routed through stainless steel dual pipes, delivering both durability and performance.
The upgraded suspension system provides an exceptional ride, thanks to the TCI Mustang II style front suspension and trick C4 Corvette Independent rear suspension. These components, mounted to modified factory frame rails, deliver superior handling and ride comfort over the standard Ford fare. Stopping power comes from four-wheel disc brakes, while chrome 17" Cragar aluminum wheels and Nitto tires give the car a perfect stance and improved handling. Steering is handled effortlessly by a power rack and pinion system.
Inside, the custom two-tone ultra leather interior is nothing short of luxurious, featuring comfortable leather seats and modern amenities such as air conditioning for year-round comfort. The custom dashboard layout includes an AM/FM/CD stereo system for your listening pleasure, and the entire electrical system has been upgraded to a reliable 12-volt setup. Additional comforts include power windows (front only), a tilt steering column, and electric wipers.
Safety hasn't been overlooked either, with front seat shoulder seat belts added for your protection. A small, removable custom console provides storage and cup holders, keeping the cabin organized and functional on longer road trips.
Whether you're cruising on the open road or showcasing this beauty at a show, this 1937 Ford Slantback Street Rod combines the charm of vintage styling with the reliability and performance of modern engineering.
