Description

For the 1940 model year, Ford introduced the Model 01A and 022A, featuring a stylish look by influential chief designer Eugene T. Gregorie. The remarkable feature of these new Fords was their V-shaped grille and fully integrated headlights placed in the outboard position on both De Luxe and Standard models, giving them a contemporary appearance that would carry them into the late 1940s. As in previous years, Ford offered a wide array of body styles, including two and four-door models, convertibles, like this attractive Tudor Sedan. Mechanically, the 1940 Ford was like its predecessors with most cars powered by the venerable flathead V8 engine producing 85 horsepower.

Those 85 horses don’t cut it by today’s standards, so this all-steel ’40 Ford Standard Tudor packs a Ford 302 engine and C4 automatic transmission. It looks just right, too, thanks to its framed and boxed two and a half inch chopped top, along with a four-inch dropped Super Bell front axle and Posie springs. Dark green custom PPG paint and Prairie Tan leather custom interior finish the look. With old-school hot rod style plus modern power and comfort this 1940 Ford Standard Tudor is still remarkable.
