Vehicle Description
This 1940 Ford Tudor sedan has the ideal vintage hot road appeal.
Everything from the upgrades on the Flathead V8 to the velour on
the seats has been done to give the full impression of a cool
old-school machine.
This one gives a cool first impression. The burgundy was an upgrade
later in life. It shows it went down with care, and it has aged
nicely for the attitude this Ford likes to give. After all, the
teardrop headlights, Art Deco grille, and rounded chrome bumpers
made these the darlings of the hot rod scene. And this one feels
like the kind of car that was built with car to go cruising on a
youthful Saturday night. After all, the Moon Eyes in the grille and
Keystone Klassic wheels are the kind of things that give this an
attitude that would fit right in on the set of American
Graffiti.
Inside, the red velour has more of the vibrant cruiser attitude.
And the button-top presentation is shared with the door panels for
a very cool look. The dual-spoke steering wheel and dash have a
great vintage attitude. Even the proper AM radio is still on
display. But details like the 8-ball on the column shifter and hula
girl on the dash are more reminders this was built for a little
fun.
If you like the old-school vibe this one is giving off, then you'll
love the motor. This has the unmistakable look of Ford 239
cubic-inch Flathead V8, and you can also see it has all the right
vintage street machine upgrades. It includes the Offenhauser heads,
a Fenton intake, and dual two-barrel carbs on top. It fires up
nicely, and gives a sweet sound out of the glasspack-style dual
exhaust. And you'll love the way the column-shifter three-speed
manual transmission gives you proper control and a classic
feel.
Take some time to look over the whole car, because behind the
old-school presentation are quality details everywhere: from the
deep tread on the tires to the way the doors line up. It all proves
this is a unique classic offered for a great price. Don't miss out,
