Vehicle Description
Under the hood lives the heart that made Ford famous: a Flathead V8, hooked to a classic 3-speed column-shift manual. True to its roots, the car keeps its analog soul intact, but with smart upgrades where it counts. A Stromberg E-Fire distributor and Pete & Jakes shocks bring reliability and better road manners, while a fresh set of leaf springs and nearly $10,000 in maintenance and updates ensure this coupe is dialed in to hit the road without excuses.
Lighting has been modernized with an H4 halogen headlight conversion, LED tail lights, and even turn signals cleverly integrated into the park lights, a nod to safety that doesn't spoil the car's vintage aura. The electric wiper system and all-new brake system give peace of mind when the weather or traffic turns against you. The 12-volt conversion feeds Classic Instruments gauges, keeping the dash authentic while letting you keep tabs on the vitals with modern accuracy.
Rolling on wide whitewalls wrapped around Deluxe wheel covers, this coupe nails the stance that made these cars legends at stoplights and Saturday night cruises alike. With manual steering and 4-wheel drum brakes, it delivers the full tactile experience of prewar motoring, but the sorted suspension and upgrades mean it feels tight, not tired.
Rare, authentic, and dripping with history, this 1940 Ford Deluxe coupe is the kind of car that blends the romance of early American motoring with just the right touch of modern usability. It's a machine that doesn't just look the part-it's built to be driven, enjoyed, and admired by anyone who knows that the 1940 Ford was, and still is, one of the crown jewels of Detroit iron.
