This 1940 Ford Deluxe Sedan is a charming, pre-war time capsule that has been lovingly held in the same family since the 1980s. As a four-door Deluxe model, it boasts the iconic rear suicide doors that make entering the back seat feel like stepping into a vintage luxury lounge. Under the hood sits the legendary Ford Flathead V8 paired with a nostalgic three-on-the-tree column-shifted manual transmission. Solidly residing in the carefree driver category, this Ford avoids the delicate stress of a pristine show car while offering an authentic 1940s motoring experience. It is a running, driving piece of history that is ready for casual Sunday cruises and local car shows just as it sits!
BODY OVERVIEW:
The teardrop headlamps and iconic pointed grille of the 1940 Deluxe are some of the most celebrated design elements in Ford history, and this sedan wears them with pride. The body is solid, and although it carries a few honest dents and dings from decades of real-world enjoyment, it maintains its fantastic overall shape. The original-style chrome bumpers and brightwork remain present and intact, showing some light pitting and surface corrosion in some areas consistent with age. Underneath, the floor pans and frame are dirty and show the patina of an unrestored vehicle, but visible corrosion is kept to a minimum, providing a remarkable foundation for whatever you plan to do.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The paint on this Deluxe appears to be an older repaint that has aged gracefully into a driver-level finish. While it still holds a charming appearance from a few paces away, a closer look reveals a collection of paint chips, scratches, and light checking throughout the body panels consistent with a car that has been driven and enjoyed over the years.
