1936 Stainless Steel Ford

[cobrasnake]

I have just received these wonderful photos of a truly classic Ford and thought others would enjoy this polished vehicle. Here is the story that came with the photos:

How would you like to have this sitting in your garage for 'show and tell,' and short drives on nice days?

This is the 1936 Ford built for and owned by Allegheny LudlumSteel. It was attending our open house and then was featured in a local parade with over 100 of our salaried, hourly and retired employees walking alongside. This is 1 of only 4 in existence and is the only one currently in running & in roadworthy
condition. The car is in exceptional condition, with the interior and even the frame looking great.All 4 cars each had over 200,000 miles on them before they removed them from service. These cars were built for Allegheny as promotional and marketing projects. The top salesmen each year were given the honor of being able to drive them for one year. The v-8 engine (max 85 hp) ran like a sewing machine and was surprisingly smooth and quite. I thought this was a much better looking automobile than the Ford Thunderbird that visited us last year. FYI, the car was insured (we were told) for the trip to Louisville via covered trailer for 1.5 million dollars. We were also told that the dies were ruined by stamping the stainless car parts, making these the last of these cars ever produced.
More information of the history on these automobiles can be found at Allegheny Ludlum's website http://www.alleghenyludlum.com/pages...inlesscars.asp










That is one special car.
