Estate Mrs L. WITHOUT RESERVATION1939 MATFORD V8 CONVERTIBLE Serial number : 2261 French registration Very nice restoration In the early 30's, Ford France and the Alsatian manufacturer Mathis signed an agreement to create the MatFord brand. This one was born in 1934 and produced cars until 1940. The objective of the two brands was twofold: Ford had to be able to continue to produce its American and English models by reducing the customs duties linked to the import of spare parts while refocusing its range to please French customers, and Mathis had to get out of a delicate financial situation to continue to modernize its range. The flagship model of this alliance will be the Matford Alsace V8. The model presented is a 1939 MatFord Cabriolet. The car has been completely restored, from the nose to the rear trunk. We have an important file of pictures showing the work done. The floors were redone, as well as the fenders, the doors with wooden frame and the interior. Today, the car is in very nice condition. The white hood stands out very well against the cherry color paint. This car needs a mechanical overhaul due to its immobilization. This MatFord V8 convertible is a nice example of the French cars of the late pre-war period. 1939 MATFORD V8 CONVERTIBLE Serial number: 2261 French registration Very nice restoration In the early 1930s, Ford France and the Alsatian manufacturer Mathis signed an agreement to create the MatFord brand.
