Vehicle Description
1940 Ford Pickup
We have said it once and will say it again, the front end look of a
1940 Ford is something you just can't beat. The rounded front
fenders, pointed nose and low grill gives these cars the ultimate
street rod appearance. This 1940 Ford Pickup is a great looking
truck that has all the right stuff to back up that tough exterior.
The body is in great condition and coated in a nice Torch Red paint
that is subtly accented on the hood with custom painted ghost
flames. It has been mostly dechromed except for the front/rear tail
light bezels and mirrors which are found on each side. The grill
and other trim pieces have been painted to match body with the
doors being shaved. A third LED brakelight was added in back just
underneath the rear tailgate which is original. A custom rear
valance was created and fits well with the overall look. It
provides space for the frenched in license plate and chrome dual
exhaust tips. American Racing wheels sit under all four corners
with the only exterior sign of the trucks power being the wide rear
tires nicely hidden under the stock fenders in back (F-205 70R14,
R-285 70R15.)
Spinning those tires is the 400ci small block under the hood that
runs really strong. The torque of these motors are typically
compared to the 396 big block and you often see people opting for
the 400 due to similar performance with a lower weight. The engine
was very well built utilizing a comp cam, Holly carburetor,
Edlebrock intake, aftermarket headers, braided lines, Trick Flow
aluminum heads and a finned air cleaner. Paired with the motor is a
Muncie M20 transmission and Ford 9" rear end. Disc brakes were also
added all around with a Wilwood master cylinder mounted to the
firewall. The AC system was just fully installed and the truck was
completely tuned up and gone through mechanically to make sure
every thing is functioning properly.
The interior is finished out in Dark Grey with a light Grey on the
dual bucket seats. The seats fit comfortable in the interior cab
and are adjustable. The shifter is routed through the floor board
and sits next to the emergency brake handle. Power windows are in
place and operate via switches mounted to the door panels. The dash
is painted to match the exterior and is topped off with VDO white
face gauges, an AM/FM/CD player and the AC controls. A polished
tilt column sits in front of the driver and is fitted with a Banjo
style steering wheel. The bed of the truck is finished out just as
nicely as the rest with nice wood paneling, stainless trim, a
custom battery box and the custom gas cap.
This is an extremely cool pickup that has a look that does well at
car shows and the drivetrain that can back it up on the street.
