1936 Stainless Steel Ford Coupe
I know this isn't a muscle car but thought you guys might find it interesting a co-worker at my job sent them to me.
This is the 1936 Ford Coupe built for and owned by Allegheny Ludlum Steel. 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 quiet. 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
