Vehicle Description
A high flat-topped hood dominated the front look of the 1940 model,
as the grille spread out to reach the fenders to differentiate the
Deluxe line and the headlights were pushed wider still. The
standard Ford inherited the grille of the 1939 model with blackout
on each side of a heavy chrome center; heavier headlight surrounds
serve as another major differentiator from the 1939. 1940 was the
last year of the 1937 design and its smaller V8 engine, with a
straight-six engine to be reintroduced the following year.
Sealed-beam headlights were one of the few major advances for 1940,
while a hydraulic top was new on the convertible.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1940 Ford Sedan for your
consideration. The current owner of this vehicle has owned it for
just over 19 years and has maintained it meticulously. Some key
upgrades and repairs include; a fully rebuilt engine in 2017
(H&H flathead), front disc brakes, tube shocks, Panhard bar
drop axle, posit springs, electric fan, newer wheels / tires, full
flow oil system, new clutch, newer Optima battery, newer carb,
newer manifold, full exhaust, headers, adj. lifters, newer
radiator, aftermarket interior gauges, 12v system, newer alternator
and much more. Lots of receipts and miscellaneous documentation
will come along with the vehicle showing many of the small and big
upgrades and repairs. This is a solid running car and goes down the
road smoothly, the freshly rebuilt 239ci v8 cranks right over and
runs just like it did when it rolled off of the assembly line, the
3-speed manual transmission that it's paired to shifts smoothly and
is strong in every gear. Please call or email us today for more
information on this 1940 Ford Sedan.
