This 1940 Ford Deluxe coupe was modified in street-rod style in the mid-2000s including the installation of a 350ci RamJet V8, a four-speed automatic transmission, and a replacement frame with independent front suspension.
The General Motors Performance Parts 350ci Ramjet V8 crate engine features electronic fuel injection and polished valve covers.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed 700R4 automatic transmission and a nine-inch rear axle.
The car is equipped with a dual exhaust system featuring tubular four-into-one headers.
The body has been refinished in red and features shaved door and trunk handles, two-piece front and rear glass, a flush-mounted fuel door, and chrome-finished bumpers and trim.
Red-finished 15” steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps and are mounted with 195/60 front and 225/70 rear BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.
The replacement frame features independent front suspension with coilovers up front and a live axle with leaf springs out back.
Additional installed suspension and steering modifications include rack-and-pinion steering as well as front and rear sway bars.
Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes assisted by a booster located under the floor.
Amenities include a power-adjustable front bench seat, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, and red three-point seatbelts.
A Pioneer head unit is installed within the glovebox along with a wired controller connected to a trunk-mounted Infinity Kappa amplifier and speakers.
A banjo-style steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation consisting of a 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges.
The five-digit odometer shows 2,300 miles, and true mileage is unknown.
