Features 1940 and 1939 Deluxe Fords.......Lets see em!

I have been looking for a 40 coupe for a while. The ones I find are either too expensive or basket cases. Does anyone out there know of one for sale on the east coast. Send me a PM

 

You guys have some sweet 40's!

 

Here's mine before the dropped axle and rebuilt 276 FH.

 

Absolutly no rust from Wyoming. Jack

 

Damn! I may have to re-think my plan for my '40 deLuxe. This one looks GOOD!

 

One I found this year. Pretty rough.

 

here's a few updates after cleaning and refreshing the driveline. still a blast to drive. been to a couple of car shows and lots of people still can't believe the paint and interior are that old. cleaned up pretty good. more updates as they happen, still need to finish up reinstalling a/c and fix hole in dash that was enlarged for old 8 track stereo.

 

Great job of getting it back on the street. Like it all except I don't believe I could live with the rear wheels. Couldn't live with them on my 40 in 76, nor could I now. On the other hand many liked em that way then. But I like what you have done. Neat 40 and story.

 

1940 Standard coupe that I sold ... to a fellow HAMBER back in 2004.
Just a stock old coupe with a 283 ( Wilcap adapter ) and a dropped axle. Drove it everywhere

 

That's the plan for my Tudor, I've got a line on a 283, adapt to stock drivetrain, put miles on it.

 

40' Ford..One of my all time favorites...

 

'Bout time someone brought this thread back up!

 

Not sure if you want to see any pickups, but here's mine.

I love this driver, and looking for a coupe to go with it.

 

been looking at 40's at car shows to see what others are runnning. going to have to change the wheels when I put disc on front. the fronts are 14's and the rear 15's. remember back in the 70's big and littles was the thing. slowly getting there with updates. still looks good being built in the mid 70's.

Here's mine, the first about 6 or 7 years ago. The second at the HAMB drags a couple of years ago.

 

Wow! Very nice!

 

Here's another

 

As always, slow going on this end. But here is an updated picture. Gene.

 

I didn't catch the name or locale of this one, but it knocked my socks off, at the Stray Kat 500.

Thanks, I am hoping to have it done someday

 

Which one is not a Ford?

 

I was wondering that also.

 

There was a '41 Merc posted...I was commenting about that image...looks like that person removed his post.

 

Thanks for clearing that up.

 

Here's my 39 deluxe coupe that was just finished it a month ago.
