Ford’s successful line-up of cars in the Thirties included the 1937 refresh, known as the 1937 Ford. This line-up was extensive, and included coupes, convertibles, pickup trucks, sedans, station wagons and utility variants, with choices of Standard or Deluxe trim levels. Over eighty years later, these vehicles are popular with the restomod, as well as purist community. This 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible is one such example that would appeal to the latter. It shows just 9,750 miles and appears to be a lovingly restored example that’s in stunning condition, ripe for a collector or vintage Ford lover to splash out on.
Exterior and Interior
The iconic design of Thirties and Forties Fords created a distinctive image that is popularly seen in gangster films of the period. Nevertheless, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible looks more appropriate to star in a homely flick, driven by a gent or lady of stature. Draped in a maroon paintwork, it features a contrasting tan top that’s said to be newly installed, and the requisite whitewall tires which are reportedly fresh. All chrome work and badging appear to be present and correct, and in pristine condition to boot, and the sealed-beam headlamps which were introduced in 1940 showcase their clear lenses, along with similarly pristine tail lamps. A peek at the undercarriage reveals a similarly clean outlook. The interior features a tan color theme with two low-back seats for driver and front passenger, and a similarly low-back bench for rear seat occupants. Two would be the comfortable number of medium-sized adults for the rear seat, as these vehicles were narrower than their contemporary counterparts. The dash looks fantastic, with the analog clock ahead of the passenger. This example is also reported to be radio ready should you desire to install one.
Engine
Ford’s famous flathead V8 powers this 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible, fed by a single twin-throat carburetor. The 221ci unit reportedly put out 85hp which was impressive for the time. Drive goes to the rear wheels via a three-speed manual transmission. This car also sports front independent suspension and four-wheel drum brakes which are reportedly fresh.
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.
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. Case in point, this 1939 Ford Deluxe Convertible Hot Rod from Coast 2 Coast. Starting off as a 2-door car, this car has been comprehensively hand-formed from a 1939 Ford fiberglass body by Coast 2 Coast, and features a host of enhancements. From a 5.7-liter LS1 V8 from arch-rivals Chevy, to a GM 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission and a plushly reupholstered Fawn Beige leather interior, this hot rod is a fine cruiser that will brighten up the darkest of days.
Ford’s second-generation F-Series helped establish the pickup truck as more than just a work vehicle, introducing improved styling, comfort, and drivability to America’s roads. This 1954 Ford F-100 Pickup retains the timeless charm of the iconic F-100 while benefiting from select upgrades that enhance its usability. Finished in black over a black interior, this truck pairs classic 1950s styling with modern conveniences such as power windows and an automatic transmission. With its wood bed floor, side-mounted spare tire, and upgraded features throughout, this F-100 offers vintage appeal and is well-suited for cruising, local shows, and weekend drives.
For Mustang enthusiasts, a genuine Roush Stage 3 has long represented one of the ultimate factory-authorized performance builds of the S197 era. This 2014 Ford Mustang GT Roush Stage 3 shows 27,075 miles and is finished in Deep Impact Blue over a Charcoal interior. Producing a reported 675 horsepower from its supercharged 5.0L V8, this example is further distinguished by a Ford Racing Aluminator forged engine upgrade, a Roush serialized plaque identifying it as #14-0076, and the current owner’s claim that it is one of just 66 examples produced. Adding to its provenance, the car bears the signature of Jack Roush himself, making this an especially desirable example of one of the most celebrated modern Mustang conversions ever offered.
Introduced as part of Ford’s all-new postwar lineup, the 1949 Ford Custom Club Coupe marked a dramatic departure from prewar automotive design and helped usher in a new era for the American automobile industry. With its integrated body styling, lower stance, and wider appearance, the 1949 Ford quickly became a sales success and remains one of the most recognizable Fords ever built. This example shows 10,785 miles and is finished in classic Black over a gray interior. Powered by Ford’s legendary Flathead V8 and equipped with a 3-speed manual transmission, this Custom Club Coupe offers an authentic driving experience while showcasing the timeless styling that made the 1949 Ford a landmark vehicle in automotive history.
