Overview of 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible For Sale by Owner

While the early 1940s were a turbulent time for the U.S. and the rest of the world, some stunning cars were produced during the period. This era of cars is characterized by their streamlined and more aerodynamic looks while retaining separate fenders and plenty of chrome. Design was king, and the sought-after Ford Convertibles are known for their good looks and ever-increasing value among collectors. Our featured car is a 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible that has undergone an extensive restoration. The current owner reports that this vintage car has even scored a 98 grade out of 100 for the restoration work that was carried out. The owner also reports that the car has won many awards at classic car shows.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior appearance of the 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible is typical of the era, with a distinctive grille, streamlined fenders, and an abundance of chrome trim. A Ford Deluxe badge is located on either side of the bonnet. Our featured car has undergone a high-quality restoration and features a brand-new maroon paint job. Up front, you’ll find Ford’s distinctive grille, with horizontal bars, as well as large chrome-rimmed headlights and a chrome front bumper with overiders. The car sits on Period-styled Firestone white-wall tires with chrome “Ford De Luxe” engraved hubcaps. The rear wheels are enclosed, and the owner also reports that the car includes Ford side skirts. The soft top is black, while the interior is a deep shade of red. The driver is presented with a two-spoke steering wheel with the “Ford De Luxe” text featured in the center. Behind the wheel is a 100-mph horizontal speedometer flanked by additional gauges for fuel level, water temperature, oil pressure, and battery charging state. Under the dashboard, you’ll find a compass, while placed ahead of the front-seat passenger is an analog clock. The owner also reports an added radio.

Engine

Under the hood, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible has a 221ci Ford V8 engine. This engine is connected to a manual transmission, which sends power to the rear wheels.
