Hand-painted details outside, comfortable upgrades insides, and plenty of V8 power under the hood this 1940 Ford 2 Door Sedan Deluxe is that kind of great all-around custom build that takes years to get correct. So skip the headaches, and go right to the fun of showing off with this custom build.
That's classic steel from the Henry Ford era, but you know it never looked this good leaving Dearborn. The Tudor fastback body is sleek and ideally lends itself to a lowered and raked stance. And a more modern metallic plum paint has been added so that the curvaceous steel now has an awesome reflection in the sunlight. Of course, that's not the first thing that grabs attention on this one. After all, those custom tri-color flames really pop against the darker purple color to make a stellar first impression. This total package tells you there was serious investment in time and money. The chrome bumpers and stainless trim have the kind of shine that shows there's been some real care. Plus, there's plenty of great timeless hot rod touches from the blue dot headlights (now halogens) to all the hand-laid pinstriping (and don't you just love how it even announces this is a 1940 Ford on the rear?)
This is a very thoughtful custom-built interior, and that's evident from the moment you step inside. The purple theme is continued to give this a very uniform quality. The seats have a kind of plushness you'd expect from fine home furniture, and the custom door panels look fantastic with the Ford logo script embossed for everyone to see. You get some great modern upgrades like VDO gauges, a SunPro tachometer, and an AM/FM/CD stereo. But this cool custom still reminds you of its vintage roots every time you look at the factory dash with Ford V8 logo. Plus, that dual-spoke steering wheel is pure classic class.
Since the rest of the car is built to show off, you'll be happy to see the engine bay is, too. And much of the shine on this Chevy 350 V8 is also about performance substance. You see it on pieces like dual snorkel air grabber, upgraded pulleys, and Chevrolet performance valve covers. Plus, you also have an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, performance intake, and shorty headers. While the growl of the dual exhaust lets people know you've got a sweet V8 under the hood, there's much more to this build. It has great all-around driving upgrades like the Mustang II-style independent front suspension, three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, front disc brakes, and the grip of modern tires on those 15-inch Progressive wheels. In fact, if you think this is the perfect cruiser, you'll even love the cruise control!
A custom appearance wrapped around everyday appeal that's why you want this '40 Ford. But you're not the only one who appreciates a total package, so hurry up and call today!
