A 1936 Ford 3-Window Coupe finished in Ford Blue is presenting a carefully maintained example of one of the most iconic shapes in American hot rodding.
Built with a genuine Henry Ford steel body and glass rear fenders, the coupe reflects the proportions and stance that have made the 3-Window a cornerstone of custom car culture for decades. The body received its current Ford Blue paint in 2014, and it continues to show well with consistent fit and finish. Its classic lines, defined roof profile and upright grille remain instantly recognizable nearly 90 years after it was first introduced.
Under the hood sits a 400 cubic-inch V8 built for dependable street performance. The engine has approximately 12,000 miles on the build and is paired with a 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission. Power is sent to a Ford 9-inch rear end equipped with 3.55 Posi-Traction gearing, offering a balance between acceleration and highway cruising capability.
The chassis incorporates a Mustang II front suspension setup, contributing to improved drivability. A power steering rack and pump are included with the car but have not been installed. The coupe rides on polished 15-inch Radir Tri-Rib III wheels wrapped in staggered BFGoodrich tires, measuring 175/65R in front and 235/70R in the rear, giving it a purposeful yet restrained hot rod stance.
Documentation plays a significant role in this car’s presentation. The last two owners, spanning roughly 20 years, maintained a detailed notebook outlining upgrades and improvements. Additional components included with the car are a Vintage Air system, new drilled disc brake rotors, the original bench seat, a car cover and touch-up paint.
Titled as a 1936 Ford and accompanied by a clean Michigan title, this 3-Window Coupe combines authentic prewar steel construction with modern drivetrain enhancements, offering a show-ready hot rod designed for both display and dependable road use.
