That is way too cool. It should be illegal to be that cool. Punishable by having the car confiscated by me. So that I can uhhhhh...demonstrate the dangers of coolness. By driving it on dirt roads.

Although most Ford Customs exist today as show cars or drag racers, this 1950 Ford Custom Club Coupe forgoes the pavement in favor of dirt.
Professionally built as a rally car, this Custom nabbed a second-in-class finish in the 1997 Peking to Paris Motor Challenge. It has also participated in the ’98 Carrera Panamericana Revival and the ’99 Carrera Nevada.
Powered by a 239 cu.-in. flathead V8 built by Motor City Flatheads and backed by a five-speed manual transmission, the Ford also features a number of racing-spec components, like a cold-air intake, a reinforced fuel cell and competition-grade fuel lines.
Find this 1950 Ford Custom Club Coupe rally car available through RM Sotheby’s as part of its upcoming Hershey auction. Expected selling price is $35,000-$45,000.
