Blending pre-war American design with raw hot rod attitude, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Sedan Delivery Street Rod is a bold and highly customized build. Showing just 497 miles, this example represents a fresh, purpose-built creation that leans more toward traditional street rod culture than a subtle restomod. With its aggressive stance, patina-style finish, and LS-powered drivetrain, this Ford delivers a unique mix of vintage aesthetics and modern performance. It’s the kind of build that turns heads at shows while still being fully capable of hitting the road with confidence.
Exterior and Interior
The exterior of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Sedan Delivery Street Rod is finished in a striking turquoise patina, giving it a weathered, industrial look that contrasts beautifully with its clean bodywork and custom detailing. The lowered stance, wide wheels, and custom graphics—including the eye-catching artwork on the rear panel—add personality and attitude. This isn’t a factory-correct restoration; it’s a deliberate, artistic expression of classic hot rod culture that embraces imperfections as part of its identity. The interior of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Sedan Delivery Street Rod is where the custom theme really comes to life. Finished in tan with unique serape-style door panels, the cabin blends vintage textures with modern touches. A custom steering wheel and column, Dakota Digital gauges, and visible mechanical elements give it a raw, driver-focused feel. The layout feels intentionally minimalistic yet functional, while upgrades like air conditioning and modern power ports ensure it remains comfortable and usable despite its stripped-down aesthetic.
Engine
Under the hood sits a 6.0L LS-based naturally aspirated V8, bringing modern reliability and strong performance to this classic platform. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, the drivetrain delivers a far more engaging and responsive experience than anything available in 1940. Electronic fuel injection ensures consistent performance, while the upgraded suspension supports improved handling and ride quality. This combination of modern mechanicals and classic chassis results in a street rod that not only looks the part but performs with confidence on today’s roads.
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, 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.

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 1930 Ford Model A Phaeton Hot Rod takes the simplicity of early Ford design and turns it into a traditional open-wheel hot rod with a strong period-inspired attitude. Finished in red over a tan interior, it is powered by a 350ci V8 topped with triple 2-barrel carburetors and paired with an automatic transmission. The chopped top has been removed, leaving a more open profile beneath the tan convertible soft top, while the exposed engine, staggered aftermarket wheels, dropped front axle, and side-exit exhaust give the car the unmistakable stance and mechanical presence enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod build.
This 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop is the kind of early pony car that gets straight to the point: a compact coupe, a small-block Ford V8, a four-speed manual, and rear-wheel drive. Showing approximately 17,433 miles, this example is finished in Caspian Blue over a black reupholstered interior and keeps the classic Mustang recipe intact while adding just enough personalization to make it feel more driver-focused. The 289ci V8, Hurst shifter, manual gearbox, and clean first-generation styling give it the sort of analog character that makes these cars so enjoyable even decades later.
This 1967 Ford Mustang GTA Restomod takes the classic first-generation Mustang formula and adds a serious catalog of modern performance and comfort upgrades. Showing approximately 301 miles, this example has received an extensive refresh centered around a 347ci Blueprint Engines stroker V8 rated at 440 horsepower, an AOD heavy-duty performance automatic, and a 3.55 Posi-Traction rear differential. Its mechanical upgrades are matched by a thoroughly updated cabin with Procar reclining seats, Dakota Digital instrumentation, Vintage Air, power windows, and a modernized audio system, making this a far more capable and usable take on the original GTA recipe.

This 1928 Plymouth Model Q Delivery Street Rod takes the distinctive commercial-body styling of an early Plymouth and gives it a decidedly custom street-rod personality. Showing 20,060 miles, it combines a 351ci Windsor V8 with a C6 3-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, delivering a traditional American hot-rod powertrain in a far less common body style than the usual coupe or roadster. Its blue and Merlot two-tone exterior, custom flame graphics, hand-painted rear quarter artwork, aftermarket air conditioning, and reupholstered interior make this a highly personalized build with plenty of visual character.
This 1931 Ford Model A 3-Window Coupe Hot Rod “Phantom” takes the unmistakable silhouette of an early Ford and transforms it into a fully customized, award-winning hot rod. Showing just 291 miles, the build centers around a custom “Phantom” 3-window coupe body mounted to a hand-built frame, with dramatic details including a suicide front end, custom flame graphics, skull grille artwork, and a purpose-built stance. Its 327ci V8, six-carburetor intake setup, Muncie 4-speed manual, side-exit exhaust, and staggered wheel-and-tire combination give the car the mechanical personality to match its appearance. Rather than simply recreating a traditional Model A, this build embraces the show-car side of American hot-rodding with extensive customization throughout.
