You are viewing a 1940 Ford
Deluxe Coupe. This is a complete car with good glass, chrome
garnish moldings and the X member and wishbones have not been
cut. Dash is uncut and car is stock with all trim. Even has original
springs front and rear with after market shocks. It is a good
rolling car, but rough bondo spots under paint in several places
as it was repaired and painted a long time ago. Has some rust
in trunk tool pan, inner fender in trunk, bottom of pan below
bumper - the part that rolls under and a little on lower right
quarter panel and bottom of lower fenders. All these metal parts
are available through early ford part dealers as reproduction
panels. A diamond in the rough still it is a very complete 1940
Deluxe coupe with spare hood, fender, Muncie transmission and
misc small parts including new headlight buckets,hood nose trim,
restoration rubbers and seals, hood nose piece , and complete
trunk handle assembly. Trunk does not lock down but looks like
they were going to put new locking handle on it as it came with
it. Has new interior door handles and dash knobs trim etc. Aftermarket
radio is a 12 vlt car. With very little work could be a nice
nostalgic driver. Under the hood you will find a small block
Chevy engine that is mounted to the original motor mounts with
an adaptor. This is hooked to a three speed GM trans, open driveshaft
and what looks like a GM rearend. The motor does turn over well.
Electric Fuel pump pumps and ignition turns it over. Has not
been started in many years. Has been in hibernation for about
20 plus years. According to the previous owner it was driven
until the day it was parked by his late father and has sit since
he last parked it some years ago. It was probably built early
70s. Brakes have a full pedal. Tail lights and headlights work
OK. Interior is in good condition. The seats and headliner are
in good condition with no rips or tears. All in all this is a
good rolling 40 Ford Deluxe Coupe and as stated earlier with
very little work could be a nice nostalgic driver. It is currently
looking for a new home. How about yours?
