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.

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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
