The Ford Standard, Deluxe, and Super Deluxe lines represent a pivotal era for the company, spanning from the streamlined pre-war designs to the modern post-war 'shoebox' models.

Collectors appreciate these Fords for their historical significance and timeless styling. They are a cornerstone of American car culture and a favorite platform for hot rods and customs. An original, well-preserved woodie or convertible is highly sought after, but modified street rods with modern drivetrains also have a huge following. The mechanical simplicity makes them relatively easy to work on, and parts availability is excellent thanks to a strong aftermarket.
The market for these Fords is diverse. Top-tier prices are reserved for expertly restored woodie wagons and convertibles, which can exceed $100,000. On the other end, driver-quality sedans and coupes can be found for much less, offering an accessible entry into the hobby. The average price of around $30,000 reflects a healthy mix of well-maintained drivers, older restorations, and custom builds.
Buying Tips
- Check for rust thoroughly, especially in the floor pans, trunk, and lower body sections. The frame should be inspected for corrosion and any signs of past damage.
- The flathead V8 is prone to overheating. Verify the radiator and cooling system are in top condition and inspect the engine block for cracks, a known weak point.
- Many of these cars have been modified. Decide if you prefer an original car or a hot rod, and carefully inspect the quality of any custom work, from wiring to suspension.
- For woodie wagons, wood condition is paramount. Inspect for rot, separation, and poor varnish. Wood restoration is a specialized and very expensive job.
- Electrical systems were originally 6-volt. Many have been converted to 12-volt systems for better reliability and starting, which is often a desirable upgrade.
Prices range from $2,350 for project cars to $151,000 for concours-quality examples and desirable body styles like woodie wagons.
