Now for sale in Houston showroom is one very cool all-metal 1940
Ford Sedan Deluxe. Covered in a Creme and Burgundy two-tone paint
scheme, it looks like any other nicely-done 1940's sedan, but this
one is not what it seems at first glance...but more on that later!
Its exterior chrome is in good shape, and the interior chrome trim
looks great! Open the hood, and you'll note that the engine bay
sports a decidely non-'40s GM 350 CID V8, with a mild Comp Cams
bumpstick, double hump heads, a Holley aluminum intake, Edelbrock
4BBL carb, and coated shorty headers. Power Steering and A/C are
added benefits; along with a massive HD radiator with twin pull
fans behind it and a big pusher fan at the front. Certainly this is
one sleeper rod that will run long and cool. The 350 has less than
5000 miles on it since it was built, and it and the GM TH350 3-peed
auto trans work seamlessly with the 3.08:1-equipped GM 12-bolt posi
rear end to get this thing up to speed quickly. When you want to
scrub off that speed, the front disk/rear drum brake combo work in
tandem to haul things down quickly. When you come to a stop, you'll
appreciate the menacing rumble that the custom dual exhaust with
FlowMaster mufflers provide, and so will your audience at the
cruise-ins you'll be frequenting in this stylish "old gal with the
young heart"! Moving to the inside, you'll appreciate the
craftsmanship that went into the restoration of the interior. Using
modern materials, but keeping the vintage motif, the interior looks
as though it could have been original, but it's obviously a
modernized upgrade of the fabrics that it would have had. In
keeping with the accent color of the exterior, the maroon synthetic
leather-trimmed cloth seats and all carpeting coordinate nicely
with the exterior. Occupants will appreciate the extra space in the
back, and everyone will enjoy the air-conditioned comfort that this
baby provides. The AM/FM/CD head unit provides your choice of
audio. The driver will appreciate the addition of the Equus Pro
Tach, and the 3 gauge cluster under the dash helps keep vital
engine functions monitoring just a glance away. Additional options
on this 1940 Ford Sedan Deluxe for sale include Air Conditioning,
AM/FM/CD Radio, Hub Caps, Power Steering, Radial Tires, Seat Belts,
and Synthetic Leather seating. For more information on this 1940
