1933 Ford Tudor Sedan

This 1933 Ford Tudor sedan is an all-original steel, custom-built example powered by a replacement 350ci V8 mated to an automatic transmission with overdrive. The body-off restoration and modification were carried out by Robert Thresher of Yesterday's Classics and consists of a custom frame with coil-overs, 4-wheel disc brakes, stainless dual exhaust, polished aluminum wheels, Vintage Air air conditioning, custom gauges, power windows and doors, a Starliner headliner, a Kenwood stereo system with CD and Bluetooth connectivity, and more. Finished in red over a reupholstered two-tone black and camel leather interior, this sedan is now offered with Revelco anti-theft protection system, build documentation, photographs, and a clear Georgia title in the seller’s name.

Ford’s automobile lineup received revisions for 1933 including a lengthened wheelbase, a new cross member frame, and a revised grille. This sedan retains its all-steel body and underwent a body-off restoration by Yesterday’s Classics, which included the application of a deep glossy red finish with color-matching treatment for the headlight housings, grille, and running boards. Per the seller, great attention was paid to detail in terms of fit and finish all the way down to hand-painted pinstripes and shaved door handles.

Eagle Alloy 17” five-spoke polished aluminum wheels with knock-off spinner caps are wrapped in BFGoodrich Advantage T/A tires. The body rests on a custom frame with a coil-over suspension, and braking is managed by power-assisted 4-wheel disc brakes with red-finished Wilwood calipers.

The interior offers reupholstered two-tone black and camel leather seating, with matching door panels and dash and contrasting black carpeting. The dash and console are leather-trimmed and a Starliner headliner was fitted as part of the refurbishment. Amenities include a tilt-adjustable Ididit steering column topped by a wood-rimmed banjo steering wheel, a Vintage Air A/C system, power windows and locks, and a headliner-mounted Kenwood AM/FM/CD head unit with Bluetooth connectivity. A Revelco anti-theft protection system is also installed.

Replacement gauges from Classic Instruments consist of a 140-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and readouts for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The five-digit mechanical odometer reads approximately 1,300 miles, though true chassis mileage is unknown.

The small-block Chevrolet 350ci V8 crate engine has been driven 200 miles since restoration and it is mated to an automatic transmission with overdrive and Ford 9" rear end with 3.25:1 gearing. The engine bay is replete with a chrome air cleaner, alternator, and air conditioning compressor, Optima Red Top battery and MSD ignition, and an aftermarket radiator.
