1940 Ford Deluxe

Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom pleased to present this very cool all-metal 1940 Ford Sedan Deluxe. Covered in a Creme and Burgundy two-tone paint scheme, it looks like any other nicely done 1940's sedan, but this one is not what it seems at first glance...but more on that later! Its exterior chrome is in good shape, and the interior chrome trim sparkles. Open the hood, and you'll note that the engine bay sports a decidedly non-'40s GM 350 CID V8, which is topped by a 4BBL carb and aluminum intake. Coated shorty headers send the exhaust gases into the Flowmaster muffler-equipped dual exhaust. Power Steering and A/C are added benefits; along with an aluminum radiator with twin pull fans behind it and a big pusher fan at the front. Backing the V8 is a GM TH350 3-peed auto transmission, which sends the spin out back to the GM 12-bolt Posi rear end to get this thing up to speed quickly. When you want to scrub off that speed, the front disk/rear drum brake combo work in tandem to haul things down quickly. Moving to the inside, you'll appreciate the craftsmanship that went into the restoration of the interior. Using modern materials, but keeping the vintage motif, the interior looks as though it could have been original, but it's obviously a modernized upgrade of the fabrics that it would have had. In keeping with the accent color of the exterior, the maroon synthetic leather-trimmed cloth seats, and all carpeting coordinate nicely with the exterior. Occupants will appreciate the extra space in the back, and everyone will enjoy the air-conditioned comfort that this baby provides. The AM/FM/CD head unit provides your choice of audio. The driver will appreciate the addition of the Equus Pro Tach, and the 3-gauge cluster under the dash helps keep vital engine functions monitoring just a glance away. Additional options on this 1940 Ford Sedan Deluxe include Air Conditioning, AM/FM/CD Radio, Hub Caps, Power Steering, Radial Tires, Seat Belts, and Synthetic Leather seating.
