Oh yeah! That is the first auto I remember that my dad owned. It was either a 1936 or 37??? Remember him overhauling the engine multiple times and grumbling about the Ford 60 engine was just not enough engine for that car. 😄

ETA: It was a 1937, he later traded it for a '37 sedan.....now I'm not sure which one had the 60 hp v8, maybe both. Standard engine was 85 hp, the 60 was an option on both models.

37 Ford 85hp was my first ride back in 1956. It had been "modified" by one of our local automotive aficionados and was the car to beat at our weekly Saturday night drag races.
Black, wide whitewall tires and straight through exhaust, and all the girls wanted to ride!;) Happy days!
