Influenced by the classic 1949-1951 Ford, the Forty-Nine coupe concept also had the chopped and channeled look on customized cars from that era. Displayed at the 2001 Chicago Auto Show the Forty-Nine featured rounded high intensity discharge and projector beam front lighting, sleek narrow wrap-around LED tail lights, and a roof with an all-glass upper structure. Inside, a raised console ran down the middle between the four bucket seats, and in front of the driver was a classic single-dial gauge cluster. A “Powered by Thunderbird” badge on the side announced that a Thunderbird 3.9-liter DOHC V8 in the engine bay was tuned to fit the car’s appearance and refined muscle.
