Beautiful example of a Great automobile ❤

Wonderful car and even a better presentation, thank you David Brown. Also, it is rare now days to see it is all Made In America!!!

Dave thanks for the imfo. i thought they didn't make them in 1942 because of the war effort I'm 79 years old, guess you learn everyday a beautifull car. MADE IN AMERICA.

Love it. Excellent example of this very rare and, beautiful Ford Automobile.

Yes it is a real professional paint job....

Love '42 Fords, this one is beautiful. I have a '39 I love too.

Like that blue color.

It’s a sedan coupe that’s why it has a back seat, also it has a later flathead in it, the original should be 221 cu. In.

Реставрация выше всяких похвал. И хозяин хороший человек, сразу видно

Very nice car but the valve lash isn't quite right. My old flathead V/8's you could hardly hear running.if you adjusted the valves right.

MY DAD HAD A 41, THOSE ARE NOT ACTUALLY TURN SIGNALS IN THE FRONT FENDERS, THOSE ARE PARKING LIGHTS, THE CONTROL ON THE STEERING WHEEL ARE AFTERMARKET ADD ON. JUST LIKE DADS. A smart thing to do in the 50s.for safety.

nice car

This car looks like a dressed up Standard model, or a January 1942 "Blackout" model that has been given some pre Blackout trim.

Fabulous

THOSE ARE NOT ORIGINALLY SIGNAL LIGHTS ! THEY ARE PARKING LIGHTS, LATER HOOKED TO AFTERMARKET SIGNALS !

Beautious Maximus!

Another lucky soul got a '42 Ford. WW2 brought car production to a standstill. Just to have a new car in that day put you one bit ahead of the other guys and dolls. 😅😅

WHY did we EVER prostitute our Auto Industry to foreign Auto Makers???

Because Americans are lazy, the Auto industries failed to meet Japanese standards !

It started with our government allowing the Japanese to subsidize their auto exports to this country, and starting 1975, severely restrict OUR cars from entering THEIR country. Our government did nothing. About a year later, Gerald Ford signed CAFE into law. Each year the minimum gas mileage was a little higher, often forcing the auto makers to use lighter duty components in some areas that were unsuitable. Remember the GM cars with the type 200 transmission? Jimmy Carter eventually tried to help by de-valuing the dollar, making foreign goods more expensive here and our exports cheaper, but the Japanese just increased their subsidies for their cheap models and introduced bigger more expensive cars. Then Saint Ronnie totally ignored the problem, so the Japanese kept increasing their market share, even though it had become almost impossible for us to sell our cars over there. Bill Clinton did get the Japanese to reduce their exports a little, temporarily, but that was too little too late. But he also allowed Mercedes to buy Chrysler. A big mistake in my opinion. In the years just before the Great Recession, GM bit the bullet and decided to match the Japanese on price. It bankrupted them, as they were selling cars below cost. Can't do that forever. Ford managed to survive, and Chrysler was bankrolled by Mercedes. Finally, the Greatest Generation was all in heaven by about 2015, and they, worldwide, were the ones who refused to buy Japanese cars, buying our cars instead, even in countries that now claim that our cars are "too big" for their roads. We now just have a truck/SUV industry. We do still make muscle cars and the Corvette, but no more Cadillac Series 62, no more Sedan DeVille, no more Buick Supers and Roadmasters, no more Mercurys, no nothing. I guess I will be driving my 73 GMC and my 54 New Yorker wagon until I just can't drive any more, as I am one of those who refuses to buy a Japanese car. Or a computerized car either.

The 1942 cars were introduced in the fall of 41, not January 1942. This is an American car, not a Japanese car.

The Noise Of The Car Engine Is Louder Than The Voice Of The Old Man Talking. He Should Have Used A Microphone. Basically The SAME CAR From 1942 To 1948, With Mostly Front End And Cosmetic Changes Over Those Years. However The Car DIDN'T Come With Dual Exhaust, And He Forgot To Put Windshield Wipers On It. But It Looks Pretty Nice All The Same...
