1933 Ford Model 40

1933 Ford Custom Sedan The first V8 motor for Ford was made available in 1932 and in 1933 they were known as the Model 40. These cars were very popular and went on to become the base for some of the coolest Street Rods on the road. The modern era of Street Rodding takes the vintage look of these early Fords and packs in upgraded features to make them safe and reliable for long distance driving. This clean 33 is all steel and painted in a bright Viper Red that has a beautiful shine. It has then been accented with multicolor pinstriping that was very nicely done. The Sedan body is shaved free of all exterior handles, bumpers, or any trim. It does have a nice chrome front grill and comes with a bug screen to keep it clean while driving. The lights all work properly and it has an added third brake light in the rear window for extra visibility. On the taillight panel is where you will find the flush mounted fuel door. The glass is in good condition throughout and has a slight tint. It doesnt get driven in the rain but does have a front windshield just in case. The car rides on a set of custom 5 spoke Boyd Coddington wheels that have a nice shine and look great. One big feature this car has to offer is it is actually powered by a Ford motor! That seems funny to say but with so many of these running around with a small block Chevy it is great to see one with a Ford 5.0 in place. The motor offers all the power you could ask for and is chromed out everywhere you look. It is paired with a automatic transmission with overdrive and a 10 bolt rear end. It runs great and travels smoothly down the road at 70mph taching around 2,000 rpm. The car has power steering, power 4 wheel disc brakes and even AC/Heat which arent features a lot of these street rods receive. The battery has been mounted below the back seat but for ease of access there are posts underneath the car in case you have to jump it off. Other nice features include the Mustang II independent front suspension and QA1 adjustable coil overs. The interior is beautifully done in a two tone Tan and Beige leather upholstery that is in great condition. It has nice adjustable high back bucket seats up front and a split bench in the rear so this is a street rod you can actually have more than 1 passenger in! On the headrests 33 Ford has been embroidered and the interior is very clean throughout. On the floor is a modern t-handle shifter and next to it is an emergency brake handle. The dash is all custom and nicely upholstered as well. It features Dakota Digital gauges in a custom bezel, AC/Heat controls, adjustable vents, a Sony stereo and power window switches. The power windows can also be operated via remote. In front of the driver sits a chrome tilt steering column topped off with a custom polished 2 spoke wheel with Ford horn button. This car is fully loaded and even has cruise control! For added safety door pins were installed on the suicide doors. This clean 33 is in excellent condition
