After WWII, Ford Motor Company was struggling to stay alive. The "wiz kids," as the team of engineers and stylists was known, answered with the 1949 Ford and high hopes of rescuing the failing manufacturer. The impact of the radical new "propeller" styling, coupled with the time-proven 100 bhp flathead V-8, exceeded their expectations and launched Ford to a historic rebound. We offer this faithful re-creation, fit for a hero. Proudly display the "spinning propeller" style grille and fully detailed 239 V-8 engine.
1:24 scale (approx. 20cm / 7.9in long) - made by Franklin Mint.
Limited edition of 1949 pieces worldwide.
