Deco Rod Decoded: Where Vintage Glamour Meets Modern Muscle.

In the realm of automotive artistry, few vehicles capture the essence of form and function like the 1937 Ford Deco Rod. With its deep black paint, custom trim, and air-ride suspension, this automobile is a stunning fusion of vintage allure and modern performance.

Offered through Worldwide Auctioneers on a Saturday evening, this Deco Rod transcends the ordinary, leaving a lasting impression on car enthusiasts and laymen alike. Anchored by an LS6 engine boasting a staggering 450 horsepower, the vehicle effortlessly combines vintage aesthetics with the muscle of contemporary engineering. Custom-engraved valve covers add a touch of elegance to this powerhouse, while a modern GM Performance 4L65E transmission ensures the power is perfectly channeled to the narrowed Ford 9-inch rear end.

Yet it’s not just the performance attributes that command attention; the interior is an opulent display of craftsmanship and attention to detail. The vibrant red leather bucket seats serve as an aesthetic highlight, seamlessly extending to door panels in an exuberant display of luxury. A modern dash with chrome accents and new analog gauges is perfectly integrated into the old-world charm, enriched by a Sony digital sound system exuding crystal-clear audio.

The meticulous design extends to even the most minor details, which can be credited to the expert touch of the dealer. For instance, full-coverage custom hubcaps embellish classic whitewall tires, adding to the vehicle’s inimitable presence. The fine lines of the exterior are accentuated by deep, smooth black paint and a custom tilt steering wheel crowned with chrome accents. In addition, the power-operated trunk presents itself with a crisp finish, adorned with fresh carpets and upholstery.

For those with a penchant for automobiles that are both visually striking and high-performing, this 1937 Ford Deco Rod is a masterpiece in every sense. With accolades to its name, it promises more than just a means of transportation; it offers an experience, a statement, and most importantly, a piece of automotive history revamped for the modern age.

For all those enthusiasts and collectors eager to buy and sell great cars this summer, the road leads right back to Auburn, Indiana, the original “Classic Car Capital of the World” and birthplace of the collector car auction industry in America.


Our next catalogue sale, also the industry’s next catalogue sale in North America, the Auburn Auction, will take place August 31 – September 2, 2023 at our Indiana headquarters. To be presented as a simultaneous live and online event for collector car enthusiasts and aficionado to enjoy.
