The exterior of this street rod is rolling artwork with its stylish 40’s design and gorgeous appointments. The body is extremely straight with excellent body gaps throughout. The hood, doors and trunk lid shut beautifully. The car was re-finished in a custom Silver Metallic paint that has been named “Silver Mist”. This color is absolutely stunning especially under bright light and fits this car like a glove. The paint is virtually flawless and was recently detailed to a high quality shine. It’s one of the best paint jobs on a vehicle from the MS CLASSIC CARS collection.

The interior of this street rod is also artwork with its rich craftsmanship throughout. The interior was designed to be extremely comfortable and user-friendly. The entire cabin was wrapped with Dynamat for supreme insulation. It’s was outfitted with all new wiring throughout which is neat and orderly. The dash was painted a soft black and has two ashtrays with sliding covers in the original location. The interior was done by well-known Dave Putnam Upholstery which looks amazing. It’s equipped with Vintage Air Conditioning that blows ice cold. It’s also equipped with power front windows which are operated with the window crank that appears to be manual. The rear windows open two different ways including a few inches sideways and all the way down. The modern Kenwood sound system consists of a head unit, amplifier, front and rear speakers.

The engine compartment is highly detailed throughout with many custom features. The firewall and inner fenders were painted body color which looks super clean. The era correct style black hinges look the part. The billet transmission dip stick with braided line was mounted to the firewall which looks neat. The heart of “The Boss” is a Ford Racing built BOSS
302 V8 engine that’s rated with 340HP @ 6,200 RPM and 365 TQ @ 4,800 RPM. This engine utilizes all forged internals making the X2302E crate engine an excellent value and solid foundation for any per combination including forced induction. The engine breathes through Sanderson ceramic headers and a stainless exhaust system with Borla mufflers. This exhaust system was professionally fabricated and sounds awesome!
