| All vehicle trades considered, including classics and performance. This one definitely qualifies as a classic. It is a 1940 Ford Deluxe 4-door sedan, complete with suicide rear doors. Look at all that rear legroom! With thick steel body panels and 12 windows, they definitely don't make them like this anymore. This car is a real eye-catcher with its brilliant red paint and matching wheels. The body is in nice shape, while the floors have had some repairs and the fuel tank has been replaced. The doors fit nicely and operate smoothly. All the Deluxe trim is present and in very nice condition, as are the grill, bezels, and bumpers. All windows work properly, and the running boards are in great shape too. This Ford is powered by a flathead v8 (complete with oil filter), while the transmission is the column shifted manual 3-speed. It starts and runs nicely, but we're talking about 100hp so don't make any plans for the drag strip. The electrical system has been converted to 12v with a conventional ignition switch in the dash. The brakes, suspension, and steering are all original style; no modifications here. The p225/75r15 whitewall tires are in excellent condition. The white interior was redone some years ago and remains in fair condition. The instruments have been converted to more conventional gauges, all of which are lighted and work properly. The electric wipers work great too, as does the parking brake. There is an aftermarket steering wheel and pushbutton horn. This Ford also has working turn signals, but does not have a heater or radio. Also note that titles and registration can be tricky for these older cars, but not this one. It has a valid title with matching factory vin on top of the left front frame rail, easily seen with the hood open. This car has plenty of style, as well as substance (just rap on those fenders and you'll see what i mean). And if you look around for a 1940 Ford, i think you'll find the 4-door sedan is harder to find than most 2-door models. Get this afFordable piece of pre-war history before it's gone! |
