BEAUTIFUL 1940 FORD COUPE STREET ROD, 350 CHEVY, 700R4, 9", SHOW WINNER (video)

Description for Ford Standard, 1940

NO TRADES

Show winning 1940 Ford Standard Coupe Street Rod, which is 100% all Henry Ford Steel and built by the current owner. On a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best. This ’40 Ford is a solid 5!

The Ford came from Virginia and was bought in 2007. It was then completely taken apart and re-built from the frame up using all new or NOS parts. It was completed in the summer of 2011 and has only logged about 2500 miles. Most of the shows the Ford has attended it was trailered. So, the miles were spent cruising around the local ‘hot spots’. Otherwise, it was driven to local shows in the Southern Maryland area.

The House Of Colors ‘True blue’ 2-stage urethane color is truly outstanding. As you can see from the video and photos the body is very straight and the only areas which required any repair were the bottom outside edges of each door. No bondo or welded in panels were necessary.

The stock 1940 Ford frame was pulled, and a complete TCI unit was installed including a Mustang II rack & pinion front-end and a 9” Ford differential.

The car is a pleasure to drive, runs cool, and everything works, except the electric speedometer and odometer. The connection was made in the harness, but it does not work.

Owner is selling for personal reasons.

PLEASE BUY WITH CONFIDENCE

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 10 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
