1935 Ford Cabriolet Restomod

This 1935 Ford Convertible is a great example of "classic styling" meets "modern technology". This Resto-mod has been thoroughly and painstakingly restored to have the wonderful design cues of 1935 Ford cars, ut paired with the modern comforts of higher horsepower and safety features that today's drivers desire.
This beautiful street rod has the following features and many more subtle touches that give this convertible a sleek and streamlined look. Some of the chrome features have been painted to match the body color in order to give it a more modern design. This vehicle started with an original 1935 Ford convertible. The body remains all steel, ncluding the smoothed and painted running boards. This vehicle is truly beautiful and much more gorgeous than the pictures show.
This car has been in my family for the past 7 years, ut I need to make more room for other projects.
