Vehicle Description
Dressed in tasteful red paint, and cruising on a set of whitewall tires that are perfectly in keeping with its thoroughly original appearance, this 1950 Ford Club Coupe captures American automotive styling at an interesting point in its evolution, a time when cars were pairing down from the substantial fenders and prominent roof heights of the '40s and becoming more streamlined, while riding lower to the ground. Its complete collection of body trim is still intact, and as you move to get a lateral view of this classic, you can easily see how its uninterrupted body lines and integrated fenders represented a dramatic aesthetic departure from its Ford counterparts that had debuted only a couple of years earlier.
Climb inside, lower yourself onto the front bench seat and you'll be transported back in time. This interior retains a largely original appearance. The oversized factory steering wheel is still mounted on the column, with the column shifter just behind it, and both rows of seating still wear what is likely the original upholstery. You'll see some obvious signs of the passing decades. Some wear on the gray cloth surfaces, a little discoloration on the headliner. But rest assured that this interior is ready to roll as it currently stands. The original factory gauges are joined by a trio of AutoGage displays mounted just under the original AM radio and an under-dash air conditioning unit has been added to the mix to keep this classic comfortable throughout the year.
This Club Coupe runs unusually well, especially when you consider that its drivetrain remains in period-correct configuration. That drivetrain is anchored by a 239-cubic-inch flathead V8 that's equipped with a one-barrel carburetor and fires up without hesitation via a push button inside the cabin. The engine pairs with a 3-speed, column-mounted manual transmission that runs through its gears cleanly. Despite its manual steering, this classic is surprisingly easy to drive. It tracks arrow-straight and comes to a stop via its drum brakes without undue effort. As you glance around the engine compartment, you'll likely notice the presence of a couple of electrical upgrades to enhance dependability, including an alternator that sits in place of the original generator, and the components of a modern 12-volt system. An electric cooling fan has also been added to keep this Ford from losing its cool in more trying driving conditions.

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES: A documentation fee of $225 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit due at time of offer and an additional $500 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase.. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!
