This 1947 Ford Tudor presents as a thoughtfully built street rod finished in a subtle light blue accented by clean, hand-applied pinstriping. It has been with the same owner since 2006 and reflects the kind of long-term care that shows in both its mechanical setup and overall condition.
Power comes from a Chevrolet ZZ4 350 crate engine, a well-known performance small block featuring a forged steel crankshaft, hypereutectic pistons, a hydraulic roller camshaft and roller lifters, and aluminum cylinder heads. It's topped with a Demon 650 carburetor and breathes through headers that run to side pipes, giving the car the sound and character expected from a mid-century hot rod. A Turbo 350 automatic transmission delivers reliable shifting, and the 3.27 gearing offers relaxed cruising.
The suspension and brake setup suits the build, with front disc brakes and rear drums. Inside, the car has a clean, driver-friendly interior with functional upgrades that make it easy to enjoy: VDO gauges, an aftermarket radio, an aftermarket air-conditioning system, and a Grant steering wheel that complements the street-rod aesthetic.
Overall, this '47 Tudor balances classic post-war Ford styling with a dependable driveline and well-chosen modern touches, making it a comfortable, approachable hot rod for weekend cruising or local shows.
