Vehicle Description
This 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan has that classic pre-war look you
love inside and out. But with upgrades around the flathead V8, a
five-speed stick, and upgraded stopping power this vintage Ford has
also been given the right investments to really make it a great
cruiser for modern times.
The teardrop headlights, alligator hood, and rounded fastback-like
style has kept this car an icon. And this one has the right classic
look. It was given a comprehensive respray over two decades ago,
and today, it balances a high-gloss look with the right signs of a
road-worthy car that's been enjoyed. So basically, the first
impression is correct-style classic that spends more time on the
road than on the back of a trailer. As you continue to look over
the whole car, you'll see that this driver-ready feeling is
well-earned from the right well-integrated upgrades. But for now,
enjoy the look of a true classic with bright red wheels and even
brighter whitewalls. And yes, they did make a solid investment to
keep the chrome looking newer and shining.
The deep red interior has a very classic look. Two rows of pleated
vinyl seats, matching smooth door panels, and plush carpeting tell
you they made a nice investment balancing vintage style with
fresh-feeling materials. The dual-spoke steering wheel, art deco
gauges, and smooth dash are all classic Ford. But this has also
been updated with nice additions for driving, like seatbelts and a
temp gauge under the dash. And have you counted the gears on the
floor shifter yet?
You're going to want to show off the motor everywhere you park, and
so this is ready for primetime. Ford's 239 cubic-inch flathead V8
is a big red beacon in the center of the engine bay's dark inner
walls, and there's plenty of added polish for that extra touch of
flair. One of the reasons for showing it off is that the classic
style also has plenty of well-integrated handy upgrades. The
12-volt electrical system, alternator in a generator-style housing,
Mallory distributor, modern plug wires, and aluminum radiator
w/electric fan are all about making this classic as easy as an
everyday driver. It's a smooth-running package, and the upgrade to
a five-speed manual transmission gives far better ratios to take
full advantage of the power. The cherry bomb dual exhaust even
gives it a nice tune. And when you're out on the road, the urethane
bushings, newer leaf springs, and upgraded front disc brakes gives
this an added confidence you don't expect from a pre-war
machine
Complete with owner's manual, this is the vintage look you love,
and the upgrades that make it fun to enjoy for far more miles. So
if you love driving your classics, you know this special Ford can't
be beat. Call today!!!
