1952 Ford Siata- 208S - Classic Car Sales USA

Vehicle Overview
Technical Specifications

The unique Siata-Ford 208S was commissioned by Jimmy Mulgrew of Euclid Ford in Euclid, Ohio, as a promotional tool. To assist with the project, Mulgrew enlisted the expertise of racer Dick Irish, class winner at the 1952 12 Hours of Sebring. Originally, the pair planned to base the project on a Ford “Police Special” chassis, but the request for such a chassis was reportedly rejected by Ford Motor Company. Consequently, a 1951 Ford sedan was purchased from Euclid Ford and sent to Siata in mid-1952 via Tony Pompeo's dealer in New York. The flat V-8 drivetrain, suspension, and instrumentation used in the car are those of that Ford sedan, but the frame was specially designed by Siata. It is unknown whether the entire car was sent to Italy and subsequently disassembled, or whether the car's key components were removed in New York and then shipped overseas.
