SHOW AND ENJOY! Redesigned with modern, streamlined styling and
choice engineering updates underneath, the 1940 Chevrolet lineup
easily outsold its counterparts from archrival Ford. In addition to
their sales success, a 1940 Chevrolet business coupe was driven to
victory in Argentina's 6,000-mile Gran Primo Internacional Del
Norte race by none other than future Grand Prix World Champion,
Juan Manuel Fangio.Featuring sleek, streamlined body styling, this
1940 Chevrolet Business Coupe is a midrange Series KH Master Deluxe
model, equipped new with GM's famed independent "Knee Action" front
suspension, unlike the Series KB Master Series, which utilized the
old-fashioned solid front axle and leaf springs. The unmodified
body is nicely finished in black paint and complemented by an
updated, custom-upholstered interior, upgraded with modern A/C and
heat for added comfort. Updated 12-volt electrics include the Delco
alternator. Ample power is delivered by a 1951-vintage incline
6-cylinder engine sporting such desirable period upgrades as an
Offenhauser intake manifold, dual carburetors and a Wayne rocker
cover. A highly engaging accessory item is the very rare and
valuable optional Chevrolet "Spinner" steering wheel.A freshly
completed inspection, service, sorting and detailing ensure that
this "turn-key" classic 1940 Chevy Business Coupe is ready to
collect, show and best of all enjoy. Be sure to contact us today to
