1940 special deluxe

1940 Chevrolet Special Deluxe Highly Customized Additional Info:

This isn’t just a vintage Chevy with a few modern upgrades. This is a hand-built, no-expense-spared restomod crafted by a passionate collector who set out to create one of the most visually stunning and mechanically refined 1940 Special Deluxes in existence.

From the very first weld to the final layer of ghosted flame, this car was designed to be more than transportation, it’s rolling art. Over $20,000 alone was spent on the 26-layer deep candy red paint, airbrushed by master hands to reveal a subtle flame pattern that appears only in the right light. Open the hood and you’re met with a Hilborn-style individual throttle body intake system, polished and powder-coated to perfection, that looks like something out of a concept car.

Even the undercarriage was treated like the body. Clean, show-ready, and detailed throughout. You’re not looking at a kit car or weekend build, you’re looking at a vision, realized.

Exterior

Finished in a stunning, 26 layer, high-gloss metallic red with deep black ghost flames, this Special Deluxe features a true show-quality paint job that demands attention from every angle. The body is laser-straight, with all steel panels, shaved handles, and custom red-accented wheels that perfectly match the theme.
