Show Quality Body, Paint, Interior and Engine. Comfortable and Prepared to be Driven.
The 1940 Ford is a popular model, that is extremely drive able and comfortable. It is an older car with V-8 power that can cruise at today’s highway speeds, but yet fully enclosed and heated with comfortable seating. This car is a very striking combination with its shiny black finish, fitted with contrasting bright work that just makes it stand out. It has been meticulously gone thought by its current owner and is ready and willing to be driven, shown, and enjoyed should that be the new owners quest.
Owner bought car around two years ago. Paint, body, chrome, and interior(headliner, door trim, seating, materials, carpet, gauges, and dash board) has been restored.

Test Drive-
Chad drove car several miles around town, and also a little bit on open road. It is a 6 volt system but this car fires off immediate. When its cold you have to apply the choke, and when it is warm you do not. Either way it fires immediately before you even hear that slow crank that 6’s typically have, and so it must be set up just right. The engine performs and runs nice and smooth as it should. Clutch works well and so does in all 3 forward speeds, and reverse. It drives very nice and straight down the road. Steering seems appropriate, and upon braking it stops smoothly and sufficiently without pulsation or pulling to one side or the other. It is just a really nice driving vehicle, that is a pleasure and a lot of fun to operate.
