1941 FORD BUSINESS COUPE "EDDIE"
TRADITIONAL CUSTOM MERCURY 255 FLATHEAD VETERAN REGISTERED
For sale is my 1941 Ford Business Coupe, nicknamed "Eddie", built as a tribute to legendary American rock 'n' roll icon Eddie Cochran. A true traditional custom, carefully built with great attention to detail, faithfully reflecting the style of American customs from the 1950s while preserving the elegant original body lines of the 1941 Ford.
The car is Swiss Veteran registered (historic vehicle) and successfully passed its latest Swiss veteran inspection in April 2026.
This is not a trailer queen or a show-only car. It is a reliable, regularly driven classic that is fully capable of long-distance touring.
