1936 Stainless Steel Ford-
This is the 1936 Ford Tudor Sedan built for and owned by Allegheny Ludlum Steel.
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 were removed 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. Many thought this was a much better lookingautomobile 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.
