Gateway Classic Cars is proud to present this stunning 1937 Ford Custom, a beautifully executed restomod that blends unmistakable pre-war Ford styling with modern performance, comfort, and drivability. Finished in a brilliant red, this custom-built Ford turns heads from every angle while offering the technology and performance to make it just as enjoyable behind the wheel as it is sitting at a car show.
The exterior immediately sets this Ford apart with its sleek, streamlined custom styling and gorgeous glossy red finish. The classic 1937 Ford body has been carefully transformed into a modern interpretation of a traditional custom, featuring shaved door handles, suicide doors, a lowered stance, and beautifully sculpted bodywork. The combination of the flowing fenders, aggressive stance, and polished wheels gives this Ford an unmistakable presence.
Under the hood is a fuel-injected LS1 V8, bringing modern Chevrolet performance to this classic Ford platform. Known for its excellent power potential, reliability, and smooth drivability, the LS1 provides plenty of performance while retaining the manners you'd want from a street-driven restomod. Power is sent through a 4L60E automatic transmission, providing smooth automatic shifting and making this custom just as comfortable cruising around town as it is showing off at a weekend event.
Putting the power to the pavement is a Ford 9-inch rear end, one of the most respected rear axle designs in the world of hot rods and performance builds. The chassis is further upgraded with a full air suspension, allowing the car to achieve its signature low stance while providing adjustable ride height and a modern custom-car appearance.
Stopping power is handled by Wilwood disc brakes, adding a significant modern performance upgrade while complementing the car's custom chassis and suspension setup. The combination of modern braking, air suspension, and the LS1 powerplant gives this Ford a driving experience that's worlds apart from its original configuration.
Inside, the custom theme continues with a beautifully finished cabin that combines vintage styling with modern conveniences. A touchscreen Bluetooth radio provides modern connectivity and entertainment while maintaining the clean appearance of the custom dashboard. The interior is designed to complement the exterior's classic red finish while providing a comfortable environment for cruising.
This Ford also features Vintage Air conditioning, making it much more enjoyable to drive during warm summer months. The addition of modern climate control means you don't have to sacrifice comfort to enjoy the unmistakable style of a classic hot rod.
The attention to detail throughout the build is what truly makes this 1937 Ford stand out. From the shaved door handles and suicide doors to the adjustable air suspension, modern drivetrain, upgraded brakes, and carefully finished interior, this is far more than simply an old Ford with a new engine. It is a thoughtfully built restomod designed to deliver the best of both worlds.
Whether you're looking for a show-stopping custom, a comfortable weekend cruiser, or a classic Ford with serious modern upgrades, this 1937 Ford Custom delivers an impressive combination of style, performance, and craftsmanship. With its LS1 V8, 4L60E automatic transmission, Ford 9-inch rear end, Wilwood brakes, full air suspension, Vintage Air conditioning, and extensive custom work, this Ford is ready to make an impression wherever it goes.
