“Flathead Fury”
• This vehicle is located at our Indianapolis facility - 2461 Reeves Rd #194, Plainfield, IN 46168 •
This 1951 Ford Custom has been fully restored and thoughtfully upgraded, blending timeless postwar styling with performance and convenience for modern driving. Finished with period-correct details and tasteful enhancements, it represents the perfect combination of vintage character and dependable usability.
Under the hood sits a rebuilt 255ci Flathead V8, outfitted with a 3/4 race camshaft, triple new Super carburetors, and an Edelbrock intake for improved breathing. Offenhauser heads and redesigned water pumps further enhance performance, while an electronic distributor and 12-volt alternator bring reliable ignition and charging. Power is sent through an overdrive transmission, allowing for smooth highway cruising, and the dual exhaust delivers the distinctive Flathead rumble that enthusiasts love.
Driving is made easy thanks to power steering, power brakes, and modern upgrades throughout. Electronic windshield wipers, power windows, and a remote-control door system add convenience, while a Dakota Digital speedometer, tachometer, and gauges provide precise instrumentation. Inside, a CD radio offers modern entertainment discreetly integrated into the classic cabin.
This Custom rides on chrome rims with center caps wrapped in American Classic radial whitewall tires, giving it a striking presence while maintaining vintage flair. The full restoration ensures that every detail—from the stance to the shine—has been carefully attended to, making this Ford a showpiece that is also road-ready.
Whether admired for its historical significance or enjoyed for its drivability, this 1951 Ford Custom offers the best of both worlds: a fully restored classic enhanced with reliable performance upgrades and thoughtful modern touches.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing, and/or $240 documentation fees.
