Story and History
The 1949 Ford marked an important turning point for Ford after World War II. Its clean, slab-sided styling gave it the nickname “Shoebox,” and the design helped define Ford’s move into the modern postwar era.
This 1949 Ford 2-Door Sedan is finished in Medium Blue Metallic with chrome trim and whitewall tires. The car is powered by a Flathead V8 and has been upgraded for improved drivability, including a 5-speed manual conversion, 12-volt electrical system, aluminum heads, upgraded radiator and fan system, dual carburetors, and upgraded exhaust.
According to the information provided, Tony is the third owner. The interior has been redone in a period-correct style and presents well in gray two-tone vinyl/fabric. The car is described as a driver-quality classic that runs well and has the character of an older Ford that can be enjoyed while continuing to improve over time.
As expected for a driver, the car does show some cosmetic and functional needs. The paint has dings, dents, and scratches shown in the photos. The passenger-side window roll-down handle is missing, the passenger-side wiper arm needs replacement, and the wiper air pump is not currently working, so the wipers are not operational at this time.
Overall, this 1949 Ford Shoebox offers a desirable two-door body style, Flathead V8 power, useful drivability upgrades, and classic postwar Ford character.
