Description
"Wax on wax off," we bring you this 1947 Ford Super Deluxe Convertible in a creme beige instead of the iconic pale soft yellow seen in the Karate Kid movies. Ralph Macchio was given the 1947 Ford from the Karate Kid movies as a present and now uses it in Cobra Kai.
EXTERIOR This Super Deluxe has just the right amount of chrome, curved steel and cream beige paint. The paint is nice and deep, covering straight steel rust free panels. The front features a horizontal ribbed grille framed by single headlights and small round turn signals. Red painted steel wheels with FORD logo moon caps are wrapped by Firestone wide white bias tires. A newer cream colored convertible top has been added. It features a glass small rear chrome trimmed window that can be zippered in the open position.
The front features a two-one tan cloth insert with maroon bolsters split bench wrapped in leather . The rear bench has dark brown carpeting that is in good condition, and the front has black rubber flooring. Matching tan door panels are also seen with some hints of the maroon mixed in. A standout feature of this vehicle is the painted metal faux wood grain dash with a shiny chromed metal insert in the center.
DRIVETRAIN A 239ci V8 is within a nicely restored and clean engine bay. It has a single 2-barrel carburetor, and a 3-speed manual transmission in back. This pushes power back to a 3.78 geared rear. Noted is the beautiful restoration job done on the engine and engine bay.
