Now for sale at Gateway Classic Cars here in Houston is this
beautiful 1940 Ford 2-door sedan. Powered by the legendary 350 CID
V8 small block Chevrolet v8 engine mated to a Turbo 350 automatic
transmission. This awesome driving machine has only covered 2,000
miles since the build was completed. The exterior of the vehicle is
done in a gorgeous, vibrant red with custom pinstriping. The cabin
is a lovely place to sit and features excellently finished cloth
and leather seats, AM/FM radio, seat belts and most importantly for
those hot summer days, air conditioning. This one is easy to
maneuver around tight parking lots and heavy traffic, thanks to its
modern power brakes and power steering. The combination of all of
these features and the fact that it came from California, really
brings up the desirability level to 10. A high flat-topped hood
dominated the front look of the 1940 model, as the grille spread
out to reach the fenders to differentiate the Deluxe line and the
headlights were pushed wider still. The standard Ford inherited the
grille of the 1939 model with blackout on each side of a heavy
chrome center; heavier headlight surrounds serve as another major
differentiator from the 1939. 1940 was the last year of the 1937
design. Sealed-beam headlights were one of the few major advances
for 1940, while a hydraulic top was new on the convertible. The
1937-1940 generation of Fords is one of the most popular
automobiles for hot rodding. Early stock car racing drivers also
used Fords of this generation among other cars. This Ford also
formed the basis for a style of dirt track racing car. Don't miss
your chance to get behind the wheel of this one. For more
