Maxmotive is proud to present this 1940 Chevrolet Master Deluxe
Business Coupe. Finished in classic black with a
brown/light-burgundy interior, this coupe retains its original
Business Coupe identity with no rear seat and a large package
storage deck behind the front seating area. Many of these cars have
been turned into full street rods, but this example maintains its
authentic pre-war appearance and character.Power comes from a
desirable 1960 Chevrolet 235ci inline-six with hydraulic lifters.
The engine features vintage performance upgrades including an
Offenhauser intake, dual Bayword single-barrel carburetors, and
Wayne finned valve and side covers. The engine is finished in
traditional Chevrolet orange and additional Rochester carburetors
are included with the car.The interior has a charming period look
highlighted by a wood-grain dash and a factory steering wheel
equipped with a rare integrated spinner wheel knob. The car also
features vacuum-assist shifting, adding to its vintage driving
experience. Comfort is enhanced with a Vintage Air heat and
air-conditioning system. The car rides on factory-style wide
whitewall tires and Commander G78-15 4-ply polyester cord tubeless
tires. Period fog lights remain in place (not yet wired), and the
car retains four-wheel drum brakes. The odometer currently shows
33,029 miles but is not functioning.This 1940 Master Deluxe
Business Coupe represents a rare opportunity to own an unmodified
pre-war Chevrolet with tasteful period upgrades and modern comfort
improvements, making it a standout at cruise-ins, shows, and
weekend drives.True Business Coupe ? no rear seat, large package

MAXmotive specializes in collectible classic and custom vehicles.
We have more than 200 vehicles in our collection and have sold
dozens nationwide and even overseas. We recommend that all buyers
who are unable to view a vehicle in person have a pre-purchase
inspection done prior to purchase. Inspections can be performed by
an independent party selected by the buyer. Due to the age and
uniqueness of these special vehicles, it is difficult to cover all
aspects and characteristics of each vehicle?s condition within the
limited space available. Thus, pre-purchase inspections are helpful
to all parties involved. The information provided for this vehicle
is presented to the best of our knowledge, and is deemed reliable.
But MAXmotive does not warrant or guarantee this information as a
basis for purchase. It is the responsibility of the buyer to make a
thorough inspection to determine the suitability of the vehicle
