It was a year of celebration for Ford in 1953! Not only was it the last year for the Flathead engine for American models, it was also the company's 50th anniversary, and a Ford Sunliner convertible was pace car at the Indianapolis 500!

We painted it Pueblo gold metallic to match my grandpa's 2010 Ford XLT F150. We built it for him, but unfortunately he passed away about a month before it was done. He had a 53 when My dad was born (first child) . So his 53 was his sacrifice to feed his new family. We where hoping he would have been able to enjoy it. So now my dad and I keep the memory going. Talk about a pain in the ass getting that motor and transmission in there. Along with a custom driveshaft to get to get the angle of the drive right

That coral pink and white combination Ford offered in the 50s really is appealing, as it elevates the look of the cars. Most I remember in this area were a solid green or solid dark color that just didn't dress the cars up the wat the 2-tone brighter paints do. Beautiful car!

Great video as usual. I couldn't catch a glimpse of the steering post enough to see what it said, but that car should have been the 50th anniversary car, 1903-1953. It was the last hurrah for the flathead and next year the new 239 cubic inch Y block came out. Ford had planned the Y block for the 1953 anniversary but a shortage of nickel due to the Korean War meant they couldn't make enough of the new engine to go into the Fords. Ford did have the new 215 I6 in 1952 and Lincoln had a 317 cubic inch Y block. Love that flathead, nothing sounds as good as engine. Keep up the good work. You do an excellent job.

I owned one of those ! A 1953 Ford Victoria, black with a white top, flathead V8 . It was my first car . I loved the car but hated the engine . It only had the horsepower of a 6 cylinder . When I went to transfer the title the D.M.V. lady told me it was a 6 cylinder . I told her no it is a V8 . The title said V8 and I told her it is setting out front, she could go and check the vin . We argued back and forth for a while and she finally said okay . The form that I signed said V8 but when I got my title in the mail it said 6 cylinder . She changed it after I signed it . She finally went to jail for embezzlement . The engine would over heat on a hot day but it was easy to work on because everything was on top .

You should mention this is also the 50th anniversary edition of Ford. I have a 1953 F100. The horn button shows the special anniversary....1903 - 1953. It was the last year for the FORD flathead. Is the car still 6 volts? Mine is now 12 volts now but, I kept the generator on there and had it rewired for 12 volts.
