1940 Ford Deluxe
View Description
Equipped with an upgraded modern suspension, it's as well suited to handle the demands of modern driving as it is to take on the competition on the show circuit.
Ford created its Deluxe line to cater to a growing demand for more outwardly luxurious cars, and added some great styling touches in their pursuit - the art-deco front grille, high set pair of rear windows and dramatically curved rear roofline being obvious right off. All that aesthetic panache is covered in black paint that's been very recently applied with obvious great care and features a strong clearcoat on top to produce a new-car shine. There's a lot of impressive fresh chrome on display - the center panel of the front grille, the teardrop shaped headlight casings whose custom appearance belies their factory origin, and side trim that runs the length of the car and seems to match the curvature of the roof life as it ends in back.
The thorough restoration has also left this Ford with glass on all four sides that's surrounded by fresh rubber seals. It's just a great looking vintage sedan on all accounts. The red leather interior is a driving environment you'll definitely appreciate being surrounded...
