Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this 1936 Ford 5 Window Coupe. The timeless styling of the 1930s American cars is unmistakable.

The firewall has been pushed back 3" to accommodate the larger 350CID "H.D. Deluxe" V-8, with an Edelbrock carburetor, Flowmaster dual exhaust, custom one-off valve covers and air cleaner all painted in a matte finish, with that work done by BH Customs. Backing the 350 is a smooth shifting 700R4 automatic transmission and out back is a Ford 9-inch rear with 3.50:1 gear was chosen to handle getting the power to the ground. The front end was outfitted with chromed tubular control arms, Heidts Super Ride II IFS Mustang II power rack and pinion steering, and Wilwood disc brakes.

A nicely integrated Vintage air conditioning system looks factory, and a Kenwood AM/FM/CD radio head unit lives above the review mirror. The 14" Billet Specialties Fastlane leather wrapped steering wheel sits on a Flaming River polished tilt steering column and fronts Autometer Gauges consisting of a 120mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer along with auxiliary water temperature, battery voltage, oil pressure and fuel level gauges.
