Old Cars Reader Wheels: 1946 Ford Super Deluxe

This is one fine looking ’46 Ford Super Deluxe. It turns heads as well as creates unlimited smiles.

Joel Van Treese has a stunning Ford Super Deluxe on his hands. It sounds like it is enjoyed quite a bit as well...

"A beautifully restored '46, done in 1981 by Benny Bootle, the man that, literally wrote the book on restoring early Fords. This was one of several that won multiple awards in Dearborn and other notional AACA events. Benny was also a past present of the organization in 1995. Since retired from concourse showing, she has 31,000 original miles and still runs and drives like new. Since I purchased the car, my wife and the grandkids have had fun cruising the town and enjoy telling the stories of the early V8's and showing some of the young cats how, in '46, this car had a locking steering wheel! Although it shows it's age from an over 40-year-old restoration, it still turns heads and brings a lot of smiles everywhere we go!"
