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.
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.
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.

Ford gives its Mustang pony car plenty of gallop straight from the factory. But what if you want a raging racehorse instead? Well, that’s where you’d need to venture into the realm of Shelby. Shelby Mustangs are worshipped and revered as some of the most potent around, ever since Carroll Shelby looked at the first-generation Mustang and decided to work his magic on it. Now, Shelby Mustangs roll out of the Ford factory itself, in tribute to the great man who sadly left us some years back. Today, we have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT350 for sale from Gilbert, Arizona with just 5,900 miles to its name. What’s even nicer is that it’s been tuned by Lund Racing and features a supercharger installed on to its 5.2-liter V8. This, the 6-speed manual transmission and many more things make this the ultimate performance Mustang for the discerning driving enthusiast.

One of the best ways to experience a classic car is to cruise down in town with a drop-top first-generation Ford Mustang. You’ll be guaranteed to receive smiles, waves and general gestures of appreciation because who doesn’t love a Mustang? Introduced in 1964, the Mustang created a class of car called the pony car, and also facilitated an entire culture of happy, carefree cruising. Drop-top examples like this 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible are most facilitative of this culture, and will definitely invoke fond memories from many of those who were around at the time. Heck, even the new generation will love the car’s simplicity and characterful nature. This particular pony is up for sale in Westlake, Louisiana with 7,337 miles on the clock, we’re told.

Few automobiles embody timeless elegance like the 1935 Packard Twelve 1208 Limousine, offered here by Exotic Car Trader. Born during an era when luxury marques such as Duesenberg, Pierce-Arrow, and Packard defined American prestige, this limousine was crafted in spite of the Great Depression, a period that forced many rivals into collapse. While Packard itself would close its doors in the late 1950s, the 1930s remain a highlight of its history, producing masterworks like this 1208. Extensively restored and accompanied by complete records, this limousine blends grandeur, craftsmanship, and historical significance into one unparalleled offering.
The 1934 Ford Victoria belongs to Ford’s Model 40 line-up, introduced in 1933 as an update to the earlier 1932 models. Styled under Edsel Ford’s guidance rather than Henry himself, the Victoria was one of fourteen body styles available in the range, positioned as a more upscale option with a focus on comfort and style. Its flowing lines and enclosed cabin gave it a distinctively refined look compared to standard coupes and sedans. The example offered here shows 62,300 miles and features thoughtful upgrades, including drivability enhancements, making it a practical choice for vintage enthusiasts who still want to enjoy the open road.
Following the success of the Model T, the Model A brought a whole new dimension to the country’s history of cars. This particular 1931 Model A Victoria Coupe comes from the last year of its make, and although it retains the classic feel and aesthetic of its original state, comes with some significant upgrades. Gone is the inline-four engine and replaced with a modern V6 with electronic fuel injection, plus a host of upgrades. However, the entire car retains its iconic vintage charm with hardly any changes. All servicing documentation and invoices are reportedly provided. With 1,949 miles reported on the clock and an all-steel body, this Model A is a car that is begging to be claimed and enjoyed in your garage and shared with others as well.
