Description for Ford Two Door Sedan 1940
Up for auction is my 1940 Ford Two Door Sedan. This is a genuine Henry Ford steel bodied car. It runs and drives great, and is a very reliable, comfortable, and safe driver - not a trailer queen. I have its clear NC title in hand (showing the car as a 1940 Ford). I have owned the car since Feb 2004. I spent the first two years debugging problems, mostly electrical. I removed all wiring and installed a Painless harness, halogen headlamps and LED tail lights. I upgraded dash instruments to AutoMeter units. I rebuilt the brakes, and replaced the master cylinder. In 2006 I drove the car from TX to NC having no problems. Since then I have driven it only to local car shows. I added the Alpine head unit, control unit, amp, and DVD player. Added shoulder belts to the front seats. Installed the console and trick Hurst shifter. Rebuilt the front control arms within the last two years. Remounted the engine accessories using Alan Grove brackets. I am selling the car because I rarely drive it, and have other projects in need of funding.Body -
