Much like Chrysler’s Town and Country, the Ford Sportsman – introduced for 1946 and discontinued just two years later – is a highly desirable car today, but also one that requires a dump truck-load of skill in woodworking to both restore and maintain properly. Thus, this 1947 Ford Sportsman for sale on Hemmings.com, partway through its restoration, will have limited, but passionate, appeal. From the seller’s description:
