Description for Mercury Eight Window 1940

How do you get ahead of the Mercury Lead Sled guys? How about reaching back even further with a fully custom hot rod built from Mercury's iconic designs. This 1940 Mercury eight-window coupe has all those unmistakable custom touches that everyone loves, but it's done to a vintage car that will make it a unique standout wherever it goes. This is related to one of the most iconic Ford street machines, just in a rarer form. So, it does a great job of showing off its history while also giving the coupe some modern flair. The black paint retains a nice gloss, and it's the perfect backdrop for all the brightwork. The special Mercury grille, teardrop headlight bezels, full-length trim, and bumpers with bold red notching all make for a great classic package. Of course, there are plenty of the right custom touches, too. It has a lowered stance to make the unique Mercury body look even sportier. And everyone loves wire wheels on a street machine. Plus, you'll spot some great details like the LED halo headlights and LED third brake light. The coordinated full two-tone treatment of this interior is a nice indication that there was a solid investment inside. A coupe like this is a great cruiser, and so you have all the right features to reinforce that, like the AM/FM/CD stereo and cold-blowing R134a air conditioning. But a cruiser is also a true driver's machine. That's why you have a Lokar shifter, sports steering wheel mounted on a tilt column, and a full set of Stewart Warner gauges. With all the custom touches so far, you know the builders would not stop in the engine bay. So they installed a Ford 302 cubic-inch V8 that you'll love showing off at events. After all, it has a clean and mean attitude within the glossy black engine bay. And this motor really has the components to back up its performance appearance. There's a Holley four-barrel carburetor, hi-rise intake, Ford racing valve covers, serpentine belt drive, and headers. It all ends in that perfect rumble from the glasspack-style dual exhaust. Not only is it powerful, but you can run down the road with confidence thanks to features like the tubular A-arm independent front suspension, power steering, three automatic transmission, and front disc brakes. Powerful, unique, and easy to drive, this is street machine that attracts attention wherever it goes. But it also has all the right modern features to be as comfortable as a daily driver. This is the complete custom build that ticks every one of your desires. Call today!!!
