Ardun-Ford-Powered Sprint Car

This distinctive vintage racing machine is a 1938 Ardun-Ford-powered Sprint Car, hailing from Viewmount, Nova Scotia. Originally constructed on Long Island during the late 1930s, it showcases hand-formed aluminum bodywork mounted on a modified Ford frame, accompanied by an upgraded Ford powerplant courtesy of the Ardun overhead-valve conversion. This sprint car has a rich history, having been competitively raced in URC events across the northeast under various ownerships and engine configurations before being ultimately retired from professional racing. Currently listed for $1,000 on Bring A Trailer (with no reserve), this classic race car is ready to be revived by its next enthusiast owner.
