Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to present this 1940
Chevrolet Special deluxe coupe. This maroon 1940 Chevrolet Special
Deluxe wears its classic lines beautifully and welcomes you inside
to a comfortable gray cloth interior that feels right at home with
modern driving conveniences. The cabin is kept pleasantly cool by
Vintage Air-style air conditioning, and long drives are made more
enjoyable with the AM/FM radio and cassette player for music or
nostalgia. The truck rolls on rally wheels with polished hub caps
and radial tires that give it the right stance and confident road
manners, while power steering and a tilt steering wheel make city
parking and highway miles equally effortless.
Under the hood the stout 350 V8 is built for eager, usable power
and is paired to a smooth Turbo 400 automatic transmission for
relaxed, predictable driving. The high-rise intake manifold helps
the engine breathe better at midrange and improves throttle
response, and a Holley four-barrel carburetor delivers the fuel
with crisp, immediate reaction when you open the throttle. Aluminum
valve covers help with heat management and add a clean, finished
look to the engine bay, and steel headers free up exhaust flow so
the motor makes more torque while sounding purposeful. Stopping is
equally well sorted thanks to power brakes aided by a
dual-reservoir brake booster that provides strong assist and an
extra measure of safety and redundancy. This Special Deluxe blends
classic style with thoughtful mechanical upgrades to deliver a
driven, comfortable vintage experience.
