1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible Coupe

With the arrival of the 1940 Fords, a new apex in style was reached. Of the 10 available styles, arguably the most striking example was the DeLuxe Convertible Coupe. Even today this Eugene Gregorie design can elicit a gasp of delight. Top up or down, its timeless style appeals both to those who like their old cars stock as well as to hot rodders. - Auto Week

This 1940 Ford Deluxe Convertible Coupe is a pleasure to drive with the 221 cubic inch V8 “Flathead” motor producing more than enough power to drive anywhere the owner is ready to travel.

The “Flathead” engine is fueled by a two-barrel Stromberg 97 carburetor and delivers the power to a three-speed manual transmission that is easily controlled by a column-mounted shifter. A quick stop is delivered by the 4 drum brakes. This Deluxe starts with the turn of a key and push of a button bringing the engine to a smooth idle and a light rumble from the dual exhaust.

The Maroon exterior has a beautiful high gloss finish with very few imperfections that are shown in the attached photos. The Light Brown leather interior is in great shape with a split-bench front and bench rear seating. The sand colored dash and faux woodgrain trim add a nice contrast.

If you're looking for an early Ford that can be comfortably brought for a long weekend cruise this Deluxe convertible coupe could be the car for you.
