1940 Ford Deluxe

INTRODUCTION: This high end custom was professionally built by GP Graphics & Customs out of North Carolina. The entire build is documented with photos in its own hardcover book. This isnt just a trailer queen show car either; its been thoroughly sorted and dialed in, ready to be driven and enjoyed!

EXTERIOR: The exterior is nothing short of spectacular, starting with a genuine 1940 Ford Coupe. This is not a reproduction, it is an all steel body; even the fenders and running boards are steel. It has undergone extensive custom modifications, the most dramatic being the reconfigured suicide doors with hidden hinges. Many of the moldings and emblems have been shaved and filled, including the door handles, which now operate by remote, along with the trunk release. The paint is a stunning House of Kolor custom finish that truly needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. Its a blend of Shimerin Candy Tangerine and Candy Root Beer accented with custom hand painted artwork. Depending on the lighting and viewing angle, the colors shift while the metallic finish absolutely comes alive. The smoked glass is all new, and LED lighting has been incorporated throughout. It sits aggressively on Budnik wheels, 18 inches up front and 20 inches in back, wrapped in Yokohama performance tires.

INTERIOR: This is a full custom interior by Faith Customs, finished throughout in tri tone Ultraleather. The comfortable sport seats feature custom slide out storage drawers underneath each one. Between them is a center console with an armrest that is truly a work of art, it also houses the cup holders, shifter, stereo, and more. The custom sculpted door panels match the seats, and the entire cabin is upholstered with a clean, finished look. Behind the seats, its trimmed out beautifully and offers extra storage. The reconstructed metal dash is fitted with a full set of custom gauges. Down on the floor is premium square loop carpet, and in front of the driver is a beautiful polished spoke steering wheel with a wood rim mounted on a chrome tilt column. By the way, those are not window cranks, they are power window switches!

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Powered by Ford! Under the hood is a 5.0 Coyote motor pumping out 420 horsepower. Its known for being reliable, powerful, and efficient, making this custom build as enjoyable to drive as it is to look at. Its equipped with a Ford Racing engine management system along with air conditioning thats neatly integrated without cluttering the engine bay. An aluminum radiator and electric fan keep it running cool, and the entire compartment is detailed with a clean, professionally finished appearance.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Theres a release lever inside the car that automatically raises the trunk with the help of gas struts. The underside of the trunk lid is fully upholstered and features an embossed V8 emblem. Inside, the compartment is boxed and finished to match the interior, including premium carpet on the floor. It also offers a built in storage compartment for added practicality. Even the battery box is upholstered, and LED lighting completes the custom presentation.

UNDERSIDE: The body was removed from the frame for a professional restoration and custom build. Its still riding on its original 1940 Ford frame, complete with the VIN number stamped into it, reworked and painted silver. Up front, it features a Heidts Super Ride II independent suspension with tubular control arms, coilover shocks, and rack and pinion electric power steering, giving this classic Ford modern road manners. In back are Posies leaf springs paired with a new Ford 9-inch rear end carrying 3.25 posi gears. The braking system has been completely upgraded with disc brakes at all four wheels along with a power brake booster, extra vacuum reservoir and an electric e-brake system. A fully stainless steel dual exhaust system with MagnaFlow mufflers runs neatly underneath, while the polished stainless fuel tank adds another custom touch. Looking up at the drivetrain, the motor area is clean and complete with a high torque starter. A remanufactured Ford 4R70 overdrive automatic transmission makes for pleasant highway cruising. The floors are all rust free metal finished in a satin body color paint, and everything underneath has been replaced or restored, including the lines, hardware, and suspension components.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and our reputation. Every vehicle goes through our service department where it is inspected, test driven, and we address the essentials before offering it for sale.

CONCLUSION: A build of this caliber would cost a couple hundred thousand dollars to duplicate today, not to mention the long wait and countless hours involved. Heres an opportunity to own it for a fraction of the effort while benefiting from somebody elses time and investment. It has just been through a comprehensive inspection and service, so all thats left for you to do is add gas and go enjoy!
