A classic Ford is a car from a totally different era. Let’s take this 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe as an example. Hailing from the 1937 Ford line-up, its over eighty years old! However, the car doesn’t look it, as it’s been well looked after. It’s also got a newer powerplant under the hood. A little history lesson, the 1937 Ford line-up was basically an updating of the previous Model 48, itself a derivative of the older Model 40. However, the public didn’t mind. They lapped up the cars with eagerness, since Ford had made a name for themselves right from the start when the Model T came into existence at the turn of the century. Today, while few of these cars remain in decent condition, they are highly sought after. You’ll rarely come across one in this condition, so you’d better act quick if you want this car. Let’s discover a bit more about it.
This 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe presents itself in a classic Burgundy hue. This car is of the coupe body style, which is one of many that was offered at the time. Buyers could pick the coupe, or a sedan, wagon, pickup truck, van, or convertible. This was aimed at offering maximum versatility to suit varying buyer requirements while cutting down on costs and maintaining economies of scale. After all, Henry Ford pioneered mass production of automobiles! However, such standardization didn’t mean the 1937 Ford line-up was ugly. On the contrary, the car came with chrome accents and bumpers, split-screen front and rear windshields, plus that signature bulbous nose that was a thirties and forties styling hallmark. We’re also told that the tires on this car are new. The interior of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe was re-upholstered, and offers a tan cloth bench seat. It’s quite spartan when compared with modern cars, because many of the features that we take for granted simply hadn’t been invented. So there’s no climate control, digital gauge cluster or premium sound system. You’ve got good old wind-up windows, a heater, and an interesting linear-style speedometer. However, there’s a more modern radio installed, with a retro-styled outlook.
This 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe packs a 1953 flathead V8 from a Mercury, making a bit more power than its stock engine could provide. Drive is sent rearwards through a 3-speed manual gearbox. The current owner says that the car has been converted to a 12-volt electrical system, and has received a new radiator plus an electric fan.

Widely considered as one of the first proper American Sport Utility Vehicles, the Ford Bronco came in 1966, and ran for five generations until 1996. Ford then decided to withdraw the nameplate, amidst some grumbling from the public.

The all-new sixth generation Bronco retains many signature features of the original, including removable doors and roof. Plus, it’s got some decent performance. But for those who crave more than decent, we’ve got a custom build by Hennessey Performance right here.

Ford’s Model T was such a runaway hit that they had to really knock it out of the park with a successor. Cue up 1927’s Ford Model A, of which over 4.8 million were sold by 1932. The Model A brought about many improvements, including a 3-speed gearbox, a top speed of over 65mph which was positively dizzying in those days, and the traditional layout of clutch, brake, accelerator pedals from left to right. Very few will know that a Model T also had three pedals but with totally different arrangements. Finding a Model A in pristine order is still tough, but we’ve got an appealing 1929 Ford Model A Roadster for sale today. Coming from Natick, Massachusetts, this car boasts 90,000 miles and looks in great condition for something that’s just four years shy of its Centurion birthday.
