Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present this
resto-modded 1940 Ford Tudor. Under the hood is a very rare
powerplant. Your eyes don't deceive you, this Ford is powered by a
345 cubic inch DeSoto Hemi V8. The Hemi is wearing a pair of 4-bbl
carburetors, and the only modification from stock came during a
rebuild in 2015 as the addition of a spin-on oil filter. A 3-speed
manual transmission puts the driver in control of the gears, and
power is sent to the rear 3.53 open differential. The engine has
been in this Ford for a long time, as the current owner purchased
the car in the late '50s for only $10, and swapped the engine in
themselves! In 1960 he sold the car, only to be reunited with it in
1995. The Ford is painted a beautiful Bright Red Metallic. If this
'40 Ford could talk, it would have decades worth of stories about
drag racing, late nights with friends, and car shows galore. Hop in
the drivers seat and write the next chapter in the history of this
clean '40 Ford.
