The 1940 Ford range came in various body styles, including two and four-door sedans, coupes, convertibles, station wagons, coupe utilities and even a utility van. Typically, in Ford parlance, the term Tudor referred to a two-door variant, usually a sedan or station wagon. So, as you can glean, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan Hot Rod is a two-door machine, but that’s not all. You see, this Morgan Hill-based car has received a thorough makeover, including a more potent powerplant, a searing red coat of Viper Red paint, a refurbished interior and so much more. Plus, it’s traveled just 3,150 miles since then, making it a fine vintage Ford to add to your life, especially as it’s pretty comfortable and easy to drive with all those upgrades under its belt.
Viper Red was definitely a color that Ford didn’t even envision for their 1940 range, yet here we are, with a 1940 Ford Tudor Restomod wearing that shade. And you know what? The car rocks it in an awesome manner! The bright shade suits the car’s curvy lines, bulbous fenders and rear haunches. Then, you’ve got aftermarket silver wheels in mag style, with upgraded disc brakes sitting behind them. The car also appears to have been de-bumpered for a meaner look. The tan interior of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan Hot Rod comes with new seats and leather upholstery. The power-adjustable front seats have interesting sets of eyes in their head rests! Then, you’ve got modern gauges, an aftermarket steering wheel, an upgraded audio system from Kenwood with USB and AUX inputs, Vintage Air heating and air conditioning, and a custom center console. Yes, this vehicle is as comfortable as anything from the Eighties onwards, so you can even make it your daily driver if you wish.
The drivetrain of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor Sedan Hot Rod centers around a 400ci Small-Block V8 fed by a Moon Eyes fuel injection system and supported by an aftermarket nitrous setup for additional performance capability. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a built 4L60E automatic transmission, well-suited for EFI operation and street/strip use when properly reinforced. The chassis rides on a TCI frame with a triangulated 4-link rear suspension, providing improved traction and stability over original factory geometry. Power steering and power brakes enhance drivability, while drilled and slotted four-wheel brake rotors deliver confident stopping performance. Additional performance features include exhaust cutouts with a kill switch, a line lock system for controlled launches, and a complete vehicle rewire to support the car’s modern electrical demands.
Vintage Fords seem to take two forms these days. Pristinely-restored classics with true to original form, or wacky hot rods that change nearly everything. Today’s 1939 Ford Deluxe Coupe straddles the line between these two. On the outside, this nice green classic looks pretty stock. Under the skin and on the inside, though, it’s been tastefully upgraded to make it more pleasant to drive, showcase, and enjoy. Now up for grabs in Carnation, Washington with 24,308 miles on the odometer, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a car from the 1930s with modern features such as a sound system, automatic gearbox and heating.

The 1937 Ford line-up hit the streets as a refresh of the preceding Model 48. It was offered in a variety of body styles, and is known as one of the most popular cars for hot-rodding to this day.

The Ford Model T is quite simply one of the most important automobiles ever built, credited with transforming motoring from a luxury reserved for the wealthy into something accessible to ordinary Americans.

Built during a period when Saleen transformed factory Mustangs into sharper, more exclusive performance machines, this coupe combines the raw analog charm of the SN95 platform with authentic Saleen engineering and unmistakable styling. Finished in black over black and equipped with the enthusiast-favorite 5-speed manual, this is exactly the kind of specialty Mustang collectors seek as appreciation for 1990s performance icons continues to grow.
