Description for Ford Sedan 1940

This 1940 Ford Deluxe Sedan 2dr. has been comprehensively restored with very little remaining to be updated. The Sedan comes with a brand new gear driven 327 Chevy small block engine mated to a newly rebuilt Powerglide transmission with cooler and shifted with a floor mounted Mr. Gasket shorty. The sedan is equipped with a new open drive-line mated to a Mercury rear-end suspended by parallel leaf springs. Up till now, this car has lived its entire life in Arizona, as such it is a totally rust free Arizona car, but now with a clear CA title. The Sedan has been resprayed in Hot Rod Flatz Lt. Blue that show's beautifully. The Sedan has all new interior upholstery on the F&R seats, front doors and rear panels, headliner and trunk along with new visors and a new carpet kit done in period correct styling and color. The windshield-wind wings-split rear window-gas filler surround and F&R bumper mount surrounds have new rubber seals installed along with new felt window dressing on the four side windows. Front & Rear bumpers along with the grill have been re-chromed back to show quality. Headlight bezels are original and show beautifully with new Chevron rear taillight bezels-lenses and seals. All new badges have been installed on cowl sides and rear trunk with new trunk handle. New running boards and rubber mats have been installed. The entire brake system has been replaced and works without issue. A new dual exhaust system has been installed from the manifolds to the mufflers and sounds strong and throaty. The Sedan has had a new wiring harness installed and has been updated to a 12V system. This Sedan has a new fuel pump and fuel lines from the tank to the engine.
What's left? Maybe add a set of 3" lowing blocks in the rear and a 3" drop axle in the front and this sedan will sit perfect on these newer radial tires. Or change out for a set of Wide White walls if that is more your style. YOU decide and make it YOUR car.
Otherwise, this "40" Sedan is ready to roll and go!
