Description of 1940 Ford Other |
True hot rod style means taking a sleek classic like this 1940 Ford Sedan and adding V8 power a memorable paint theme, and a custom interior. So it's great to see this one gets it all done, and does it for an obtainable price. The '40 Ford two-door sedan is the right place to start for custom duty. It has a sleek profile with the rounded rear that looks ready for speed. The front end is iconic with the sharply pointed middle highlighted by the waterfall grille. These two key places are exactly why they expertly deleted the bumpers - so you can see them fully. The full flame-kissed custom paint theme was done a few years ago, but it still knows how to leave a lasting impression. There are nice details, like big exhaust tips placed below the rear fender, an integrated third brake light, and a ton of custom pinstriping. Plus, the Weld Racing wheels have staggered 14/15-inch size and extra meaty rear ones for an aggressive forward-leaning stance. The interior is done for both comfort and style. It starts with a pair of high-back front bucket seats with comfy cloth inserts that nicely coordinate with the outside red. The rear seats and door panels have also been done to match. You have desirable upgrades like cup holders and an AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input. Plus, it's a well-done driver's setup with a wood-rimmed Grant GT steering wheel mounted on a tilt column. It gives you a good view to the full Classic Instruments gauge package. It's always nice to see proper blue oval power in a classic Ford, and this 302 cubic-inch V8 proudly announced its heritage with the shining Ford Racing Valve covers. There's plenty more polish to see in this tidy engine bay. And you'll also spot worthwhile components like the Holley four-barrel carburetor, HEI ignition. and sweet-sounding Dynomax dual exhaust. But this custom build also has a practical side, too. Features like the upgraded independent front suspension, power brakes with discs up front, rack & pinion power steering, and three-speed automatic transmission make this classic a comfortable cruiser. Here's an all-steel '40 Ford with plenty of street machine style. That has a ton of appeal, especially at a price like this. Call today!!! |
