Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 26th year in the classic and muscle car business. In 1932 Ford Motor Company cornered the still embryonic American performance market with the introduction of their V8 engine. Although it was not the first V8, it was mass produced and offered at a price that the average worker could afford. This stalwart engine had been continually improved, so by the time Eugene Bob Gregorie penned the beautiful lines for the 1940 Ford, an instant classic was born. This beautiful 1940 Ford Deluxe Business Coupe is a fine example of these prewar gems that retains its classic styling while sporting some tasteful upgrades that improve safety, comfort, and performance. Beneath the graceful hood is a 350 V8 that's been fortified with an Edelbrock carburetor, a JEGS aluminum intake manifold, headers, HEI, and a Champion aluminum radiator with shroud and electric fan. Additional features include front disc brakes, a Vintage Air A/C system, a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, Ford 9 rear end, dual exhaust, an AM radio, original-type corduroy cloth upholstery,12-volt conversion, seatbelts, an auxiliary temperature gauge, and wide whitewall tires (235/70R16) wrapped around steel wheels with Deluxe caps and beauty rings. This sweetheart has no trouble at modern highway speeds as you cruise in air conditioned comfort. And check out the size of that Business Coupe trunk; I think I could pack enough clothes for 6 months of travel! One more classy classic from the team that can make your dream a reality.
