| Ford fans you are in for a treat. So you want to make a statement at th local cruise in and be ready for street or show where ever you park. Then you need to take time to look seriously at this 1940 Ford Deluxe Opera Coupe. This car came from Kansas City, Kansas (near perfect car) The car has been painted over 5 years and other than a few stone chips the paint is perfect. That wouldn’t be the case if it was a steel car with extensive body repair. The car is a NSRA 23 point car. The LS1 engine and 4L60E trans is 2000 modle with less that 20,000 miles all accessories such as headers, etc are from Street & Performance. The rear end is an 8.7” Ford with 3:70 gears. The car will get 22 MPG on the highway. The fuel tank is “Tanks” poly with the GM/Delco fuel pump ordered for this motor. Front suspension is Mustang II. Wheels are Halibrand Sprints with new B.F. Goodrich TA radials. The color is GM Victory Red. The interior is all leather except the head liner. The radio has a 6 disc CD changer. GM column with Banjo leather wrap steering wheel, on a GM column. Power windows, power steering, cruise control. The original clock has been converted to electric quartz movement. Radiator is Custom Auto Radiator that I had polished. The fan is a cooling components fan and this car will sit and Idle with the air on and not go above the thermostat seting and the fan will cycle if the air isn’t on. I have wired the fan to run if the AC compressor is on regardless of engine temp. There is a temp. sensor for the fan in the radiator. The AC is Vingage air heat and cool for a 40 Ford. I have rigged up a temperature thermostat for the heat so that if you set the heat to 70 degrees in the winter , the hot water valve will cycle. Electric 2 speed wipers, gas shock for the trunk lifts, all lock work correctly so you can secure the car. Master power cut off but wired so you will not lose the memory to the computer, radio memory and the clock. Lots of love time and effort went into this bad boy and it is as fine as it looks. It is ready for cruise or strip and it is currently looking for a new home. How about yours? |
