Moonlighting as a classic cruiser, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe
wears its black finish with vintage dignity. Ford crafted these
machines during an era when automotive design merged flowing shapes
with practical function. The distinctive front grille announces its
arrival while curved fenders flow gracefully over the 16" steel
wheels with chrome caps and rings. Chrome trim provides brilliant
contrast against the glossy black paint. Firestone white wall tires
sized at 6.00-16 roll underneath, while blue-dot tail lights add a
subtle touch of hot rod culture that sets this classic apart.
Beige cloth wraps the bench seat and door panels inside this Ford's
cabin. The straightforward layout follows classic design principles
with clear gauges mounted in the painted dash face. Wood door panel
tops add warmth against the clean vinyl flooring. The
column-mounted shifter puts the 3-speed manual transmission at your
fingertips for direct control of the drivetrain. Factory gauges
display vital information clearly, while the cloth headliner
creates a finished look overhead. Everything works together to
create a driving space that takes you back to simpler automotive
times.
Mechanical excellence starts with the Ford Flathead V8 engine. This
221/239 cubic inch powerplant runs through a single 2-barrel
carburetor for proper fuel delivery. The 3-speed manual
transmission channels output to the factory style banjo rear end
for solid performance. Dual exhaust with glasspack style mufflers
produces a satisfying sound. The 6-volt electrical system maintains
originality, while transverse leaf springs with a front sway bar
keep the ride controlled. Drum brakes handle stopping duties,
making this Ford both authentic and drivable.
