Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is very pleased to present this beautiful piece of "Automotive Americana", this visually stunning 1940 Ford Coupe "Deluxe". The 1940 model year must rank at or near the top of the list among hot rodders and classic car restorers. The hot rodding of the 1940 Ford Coupes really took off after World War II and you will still see several of the 1940 Ford Coupes around at auto shows & meets, with a good number of them modified into hot rods like this one. This example stands out in the crowd for sure, compliments of the high gloss black paint, custom painted silver & purplish-blue flames, custom pinstriping on the rear deck, wide whites on a set of flame red wheels with the chrome V/8 Ford dog-dish caps and super nice brightwork. Powered by a strong running & nicely equipped 383CID Stroker V/8, this is not for the faint of heart! Edelbrock Performer 6073 heads, Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum intake, Edelbrock 600 CFM electronic choke carb, a billet serpentine belt system, MSD distributor & Blaster 2 coil, headers and a set of custom polished aluminum "383 Stroker" valve covers, among other things, add to the overall appearance AND the performance up under the hood! The Stroker is teamed up to a 700R4 automatic transmission that is sending power out back into the braced-up Ford 9" rear end. Some tubular A-arms, a Mustang II front suspension, 4-wheel disc braking, and a set of adjustable coil overs in the rear make sure that the handling is as good as the power. And then you open the doors to that beautiful, lipstick red interior! There is something about the interior of this car that just screams "Custom". From the billet accessories like the door pulls, handles & window cranks on the custom door panels, to the custom steering wheel, super bright woven carpets, the high boy shifter, the throwback designed Dolphin gauges in the custom billet cluster and the "Captains Bench" front seating, the build quality of this interior is evident as soon as you open the door! Even the headliner & the rear cargo area behind the seats were done to the highest of standards. This 1940 Ford is ready to be enjoyed again & it might as well be you doing all that enjoying!
