1950 FORD CUSTOM LEAD SLED 330 ROCKET V8 CARSON-STYLE TOP ADJUSTABLE AIR RIDE CUSTOM PPG DEEP BLUE AND BLACK ELECTRIC BLUE GHOST FLAMES TAN LEATHER INTERIOR 200R4 AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE 12,000 MILES If you are searching for a 1950 Ford Custom Lead Sled for sale in Dallas-Fort Worth, this one-of-a-kind classic delivers the unmistakable look of a traditional American custom with the mechanical upgrades to make it even more enjoyable. Finished in custom PPG Deep Blue and Black with Electric Blue ghost flames, this Ford combines a dramatic Carson-style top, adjustable air ride, wide whitewall tires, a 330 Rocket V8 and a beautifully finished Tan leather interior. This is not simply a restored stock 1950 Ford. The entire car has been transformed around the classic Lead Sled aesthetic, creating a low, flowing profile with custom paint, extensive brightwork and the unmistakable presence of a true old-school custom. 330 ROCKET V8 Power comes from a 330 CID Oldsmobile Rocket V8, providing the V8 character that fits this custom perfectly. It is paired with a 200R4 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission, giving the Ford an additional overdrive gear for more relaxed cruising while retaining the traditional feel of a V8-powered American custom. CUSTOM PPG PAINT The exterior is one of the defining features of this Lead Sled. Custom PPG Deep Blue and Black paint creates a rich foundation for Electric Blue ghost flames that reveal themselves across the body without overpowering the classic design. The combination works beautifully with the extensive chrome, stainless trim and traditional custom styling. CARSON-STYLE TOP The Carson-style top gives this Ford its distinctive low and flowing roofline. It dramatically changes the profile of the car and captures the look associated with some of the most memorable custom builds of the 1940s and 1950s. The Carson-style top is NOT removable. ADJUSTABLE AIR RIDE Adjustable air-ride suspension allows this Ford to achieve the pavement-hugging stance that defines the Lead Sled look while providing the ability to adjust ride height when needed. Wide whitewall tires and classic wheel treatment complete the traditional custom appearance. CUSTOM TAN LEATHER INTERIOR Open the door and the custom theme continues with a beautifully finished Tan leather interior. The lighter upholstery provides an excellent contrast against the Deep Blue and Black exterior while giving the cabin an upscale appearance appropriate for a high-level custom build.

It has the presence expected from a serious custom without losing the unmistakable character of a 1950 Ford. Whether you are looking for a classic custom to add to a collection, a distinctive cruise-night car, or a traditional Lead Sled that stands apart from restored factory examples, this Ford deserves a closer look.
