Vehicle Description
Facebook marketplace only allows 20 photos but there are more
photos on my website. This car is currently located in Muncie,
Indiana. This Henry Ford all steel 1940 Ford 3 window coupe has
been custom built by the renowned builder Leonard Lopez of
Dominator Street Rods, in Tracy, California. Using only the highest
caliber of design and after a year and a half of perfection, the
5-window coupe was transformed, almost as if by magic into a
totally rodded and flowing 3-window coupe. Over $50,000 in paint
and body work alone. Body modifications include the front
windshield has been laid back and the rear was laid forward and the
roof was sectioned to fit. The windshield opening was reworked to
retain stock height. The rear windows were moved upward. The doors
were custom made 12" longer with hidden hinges and also made to
open suicide style. The rear side windows were removed. The hood
and front fenders have been rotated down 1.5" downward. All wheel
wells were reradiussed. The running boards were custom built with
side exit exhausts. The dash was custom built with a flowing
console. The engine compartment is as detailed as the rest of the
car with custom paint and lots of chrome on the Ford Modular 4.6
(281 CID) V8 engine. The car features a Ford AODE transmission,
Vintage Air Conditioning, 9" Ford Currie Axles, 4 Wheel Disc
Brakes, qa1Coilover Shocks and Gil Lopez Wiring. All new frame
rails and cross members were used to build the chassis, a Dominator
built IFS system with inboard coil over shocks, a rear four bar
setup with coil overs and a 9" Ford rear end. Paint by Mickey
Galloway and Art Himsl. This custom 3 window has won too many
awards to count and has even been featured on the front cover of
Street Rodder Magazine and was also driven twice on the
Americruise. The paint on the converted 3 window is one of the best
works on the market today.You could sit and stare at this car for
hours and not even begin to notice the extreme detail and color
design. The multi colored graphics that flow throughout the car
fade into one color, and then into another, and then another, etc.
Everything is Dupont from the Undercoating, clear coating, stripes
and body. If you have ever wanted a true, world class, fully
documented street rod, now is the time. This is an excellent
opportunity to own an absolutely phenomenal street rod that will
attract attention, and awards everywhere it is shown. This is an
extremely high quality street rod! Think of the countless hours
that have gone into this car to achieve this heightened level of
perfection. This car was the start that led Dominator Street Rods
into the future of award winning and functional
automobiles.Duplicating this car today would cost somewhere in the
$500,000 price range. Items added since the photos are: Pioneer AVH
head unit with GPS and back-up camera. Polk audio 12 inch subs and
a Flaming River custom built steering column with tilt.
