For a Convertible , everything fits together quite well, including the doors , and its doubly important for things like the trunk to be right, since it's an integral part of the folding top assembly. Also be sure to check out the wonderfully ornate grille , the beautifully chromed bumpers , so it has a ton of presence everywhere it goes.

A correct air cleaner and beautiful valve covers proudly showing off big Ford block letters. Power steering makes this Classic easy to handle and there's a equally giant radiator up front that seems designed for parades Underneath , Its mostly original but that's OK because it runs beautifully and cruises along effortlessly with the Ford-O-Matic Transmission and a 9-inch rear end .
