For Sale: 1940 Ford Pickup in Sherman, Texas

Vehicle Description

This 1940 Ford Pickup is a statement of how classic American metal can still outshine the crowd. The deep, lustrous purple paint makes this truck impossible to miss, shimmering over the Ford's timeless lines like it was born to be rebellious. Underneath that old-school steel sits a Mustang II front suspension and front coilovers, giving it the stance and poise of a modern street rod with all the attitude of the original.

Pop the hood and you'll find a 302 cubic-inch V8 that brings Ford's small-block magic to life, breathing through shorty headers and dual exhausts that sound every bit as mean as they look. An MSD Atomic EFI system keeps fuel delivery crisp and reliable, while the Lokar shifter and C4 automatic transmission make every cruise smooth and effortless. This isn't a temperamental show queen-it's a driver's hot rod that's been built to run.

Inside, the gray cloth bench seat and tilt steering column make for a comfortable ride, while VDO gauges and a Kenwood Bluetooth stereo bring the old-school cab into the modern age. Every touch, from the aluminum radiator with electric fan to the custom wood bed, speaks of craftsmanship and care. Power steering and brakes ensure this truck handles with confidence, not compromise.

In a world where too many builds chase trends, this '40 Ford stays true to its roots while packing serious performance under the skin. Ford only produced these pickups for a few short years before the war, making survivors rare enough-and custom builds of this quality even rarer. It's a blend of heritage and horsepower that captures what made American trucks legendary in the first place.
