Description
Description1947 Ford Super Deluxe Fordor Police Tribute his 1947 Ford Super Deluxe Fordor Sedan is finished in black-and-white Boston Police Department-style livery and is powered by a 226ci L-head inline-six paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes dual fender-mounted red beacon lights, a driver's-side spotlight, chrome exterior trim, and steel wheels with chrome hubcaps. The Super Deluxe represented Ford's premium passenger-car offering during the immediate postwar period, combining distinctive styling with practical transportation. This example has been outfitted as a period police tribute vehicle and presents as a unique piece of American automotive and law-enforcement history. Finished in black with white door panels featuring Boston Police graphics, the car is equipped with period-style emergency lighting mounted atop the front fenders as well as a driver's-side spotlight. Additional exterior details include chrome bumpers, a Super Deluxe hood badge, a hood ornament, and a chrome-accented grille. The body rides on black-painted steel wheels fitted with chrome hubcaps. The cabin features bench seating, a column-mounted shifter, a painted steel dashboard, and factory instrumentation that includes a speedometer along with fuel, oil pressure, temperature, and charging-system gauges. An accessory under-dash fan has been installed, and the interior retains a period-correct appearance consistent with the vehicle's presentation. Power comes from a 226ci L-head inline-six equipped with a single-barrel carburetor and an oil-bath air cleaner. The rear wheels are driven through a three-speed manual transmission. Ford's inline-six was known for its reliability, smooth operation, and durable service in both civilian and fleet applications. This Super Deluxe offers a distinctive opportunity to acquire a postwar Ford sedan presented as a classic police cruiser. Whether displayed at automotive events, used in film and television productions, added to a collection of law-enforcement memorabilia, or simply enjoyed as a unique piece of Americana, this Ford makes an immediate impression wherever it appears.
