What we have here is a 1952 Ford Customline 2 door hardtop. At some point, this car was restored and given a purple paint job. The floors were butchered, and although you won't fall through them while driving, they weren't repaired to our standard. This car was completely overhauled from sheet metal to engine to paint, and it's one of the coolest builds we've completed. This car is extremely low-key, but packs all the modern features you'd expect from Schwartz Performance.
