This is a striking antique Ford V8 cast iron sign, a brilliant piece of early motoring history. It carries the classic Ford script set above the V-shaped ‘8’, a design strongly associated with the 1930s flathead V8 era. At 40 x 27cm, it is much larger than a standard bonnet badge and was most likely part of an old garage display or dealership sign.
The metal is heavy with a deep, authentic patina, showing decades of age through pitting, rust bloom and surface texture. It has that rugged, industrial feel that makes early automotive advertising so appealing. Whether hung in a workshop, home bar, office or man cave, it adds real character and presence.
A great statement piece for anyone who loves early automotive design, industrial décor or original Ford memorabilia.
