Got my 40 Coupe back!!

Well, last year I traded my 40 to another HAMBer and have regretted it ever since When I saw it back on here for sale again I was pumped! Its back home to stay! I drove it all over town today and had a blast Another Hamber buddy of mine, Mudd, painted the dash and garnish the same color as I had him paint the wheels a year or so ago. Just got it back from him yesterday. Plan on putting a new trunk floor in it and driving it to LSR in April if the old Flathead holds up then next winter building a new Flathead for it. Here are some pics from today.

 

that car rules Tom !!! Enjoy--

 

Congrats. I always loved that car.

 

Congrats! Awesome ride.

 

Congrats. I would be happy too.

 

I think it needs some vanilla stripes!!

 

Hey congrats. I know the feeling...waited 25 years to get my old ride back.

 

Thanks guys! Put a lot of work into that thing before I traded it off, still has a ways to go, but its a driver and always will be.

Chad, that sounds like a good idea!

 

love the old paint and gold man. very nice. this is why i'm never selling my first rod

 

A '40 Ford Deluxe coupe is my favorite next to a '56 Nomad. If I ever get one, I'll never sell it. Glad you got it back. Bring it to Dewey in May.

 

Going to try to make it this year, missed the last two

 

...yeah, I'd miss that one too!...it's jus perfect.

 

.....Congrats on getting your ride back........your a lucky man

 

Sweet. It's like getting back together with an old friend.

 

Nice. I couldn't believe it when you traded it away. That roadster is nice but c'mon, a '40 coupe = Awesome!

 

cool coupe, glad you have it back home.
Al.

 

Yep, watching it get hauled off on BenD's trailer was terrible. However I did do well with the Roadster and bought the 40 back right, so I can't complain. It won't be leaving again though

 

DO! DEWEY!!!..............Congrats on the return of a killer 40!

 

How you ever managed to sell it in the first place is beyond my comprehension. One day I'll have a '39 or a '40...oh a man can dream, a man can dream.

 

WoW very cool car just the way it is. we all have learned lessons in selling cars and then regreting it. your'e the lucky one.

 

You got a second chance, love her, cherish her, never let her go!

 

glad it came back home--can't beat a 40 coupe

 

Great to see it back home.

 

Must have killed you to sell it in the first place. Love it and good luck.

 

Love that forty!
I sold my '37 years ago and immediately regretted it. Good thing I sold it to a family member and was able to get it back. I have it now for 31 years, minus it's 4 month hiatus.

 

Glad to see your baby is back home...

 

Hey Tom, it always feels good when a child comes home after being out late. Glad you got her back, congrats.

 

Congrats bro, the car has a very nice appeal. It just looks like a cute gril that doesn't wear but a touch of makeup and looks great. Love it, happy for ya. ~sololobo~

 

Glad to see it back where it belongs.

 

Nice Tom. Couldn't believe you ever sold it. Congrats on getting it back, really like the dash and garnish mouldings (great color). Hard to beat a black 40 coupe. Gary
