Sounds like a dream until you feast your eyes on this 1940 Ford Coupe Restomod we have today. Up for grabs today is an award-winning legend in the restomod scene; from being the Car Featured Car at the 2015 Cruis'n Wisconsin to being on the front cover of Street Scene Magazine and a long list of more awards under its name, this sure is one way to stand out.
Exterior and Interior
With every possible design change and upgrade being done it’s tough to stand out in the restomod scene. This 1940 Ford Coupe Restomod, with its orange exterior, sticks out like the sore thumb, but in a good way. The exterior color is a custom formulated Orange Candy paint color. Custom exterior features include Mini Cooper headlights, Custom airbrush moldings, chopped top, pancaked hood, peaked front fenders, remote operated license plate holder, hidden security button to start car, flush mount gas filler door and suicide doors with an automatic deadbolt safety system, because why not. The tan interior on this 1940 Ford Coupe Restomod is one that wows any Thirties custom builder. The seats are embroidered with the headliner being finished off in ultra-suede. The headliner also has a ceiling-mounted rear view mirror for better visibility. The dashboard is also custom and sports a new billet steering wheel and gauges to monitor engine performance. Pump out those tunes in proper fashion with this Car's Kenwood 3,700-watt stereo with remote, which is connected to a 7-speaker surround sound system and a TV/DVD player.
Engine
With custom jobs, the sky is the limit when it comes to performance. Powering this 1940 Ford Coupe Restomod is a big powerplant. Under the hood is a reported 6.3L V8 engine. While this sounds like a lot, the engine also reportedly has a new Borla 8 stack fuel injector for more performance. Every component on the car has been upgraded to keep up with the power increase. The upgrades include a Turbo 400 automatic transmission for better power delivery and Ford 9" Posi rear end, four-link suspension, AirRide in all four corners, and Heidts Mustang II suspension up front. The car also has a dual battery set up to get rid of all those electrical gremlins.
This 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan Hot Rod is the kind of build that makes its intentions clear before the engine even fires. Showing approximately 4,918 miles, it pairs unmistakable prewar Ford styling with a 400ci V8, Moon Eyes fuel injection, a 4-speed automatic, and a dyno-sheet-reported 525 horsepower. An aftermarket nitrous system (not hooked up), line lock, and switch-controlled exhaust cutouts push the personality even further, while a TCI frame, triangulated 4-link rear suspension, and drilled and slotted 4-wheel brake rotors give the chassis the hardware to match. Finished in Viper Red over a Tan interior with Torque Thrust II wheels, subtle pinstriping, and a custom under-hood mural, this is a traditional hot rod with far more going on beneath the surface than its classic silhouette suggests.
This 1939 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan Street Rod brings together classic prewar Ford styling, custom hot-rod craftsmanship, and a notable build pedigree. Showing approximately 20,140 miles, this example was built by Boyd Coddington and featured on American Hot Rod, giving it a level of provenance that sets it apart from a typical custom street rod. Finished in red over a tan interior, it is powered by a 350ci V8 with a Holley 4-barrel carburetor and automatic transmission. Additional highlights include a shaved body, Mustang II front suspension, rack-and-pinion steering, Wilwood disc brakes, Boyd Coddington wheels, and a reupholstered interior.
The 1939 Ford Deluxe Business Coupe remains one of the most recognizable pre-war American coupes, prized for its sweeping fenders, streamlined styling, and timeless hot rod appeal. This example has been transformed into a beautifully finished street rod that blends classic Ford styling with modern comfort and dependable V8 performance. Showing just 8,532 miles, this custom build features a 350ci V8 backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission, along with thoughtful upgrades that make it equally suited for weekend cruising, local car shows, or long-distance road trips. Its striking custom Silver and Maroon paint scheme, upgraded interior, and extensive list of modern amenities make this Ford an eye-catching and enjoyable classic.
This 1931 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan is a charming example of one of the most important cars in American automotive history, presented here with just 4,258 miles showing. Finished in Blue with a Brown interior, this Tudor keeps the unmistakable proportions and mechanical simplicity that defined the Model A era. Yellow wire-spoke wheels, whitewall tires, a rear-mounted spare, and a luggage trunk give it a period-correct touring look, while a FRAM PH3500 spin-on oil filter conversion adds a subtle practical update. For anyone drawn to prewar motoring, this is the sort of car that delivers the experience in a wonderfully straightforward way.
This 1932 Ford Model 18 5-Window Coupe Hot Rod takes one of the most recognizable early Ford body styles and gives it the classic hot rod treatment. Showing 25,148 miles, it pairs a black exterior with a vivid red interior and a 327ci V8 backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission. The build mixes traditional hot rod cues with modern usability, including polished billet wheels, a reupholstered cabin, aftermarket instrumentation, air conditioning, and a power trunk. It has the right old-school proportions and character, but with enough comfort and convenience to make it more than just a garage centerpiece.
This 1933 Ford Model B SpeedStar Hot Rod is a full custom build that takes classic prewar hot rod proportions and wraps them around a much more modern performance package. Showing just 3,645 miles, it features an Alloway-built Rat’s Glass fiberglass body, a 383ci stroker V8, an automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive. Finished in silver with a custom paint job over a reupholstered gray leather interior, this SpeedStar mixes show-car presentation with real hot rod substance. Add in 4-wheel disc brakes, aftermarket suspension, custom wheels, power-operated features, and an upgraded audio system, and you have a build that is as much about craftsmanship as it is about attitude.
