The 1941 Ford was the American Ford car that the company thoroughly updated in 1941 in preparation for the uncertainty of the Second World War. The design continued in an aborted 1942 model year, was restarted in 1946 and was produced until 1948, when the more modern 1949 Fords were ready. Trim levels grew from two to three, Special, De Luxe and Super De Luxe, and although Ford cars had been V8-only since 1935, dealer requests for an economy engine led to a six-cylinder option. Body styles included two-door and four-door sedans, a sedan coupe, a business coupe, a convertible coupe, a sedan delivery wagon and a woody station wagon. The 1942 model year lasted only four months before civilian production was halted.
