Ill start by saying this is by far one of the nicest 1940 cars ive ever see, I purchased this car from an older gentleman in northern california where it had spent its entire life until i bought it 3 years ago. Im really not sure where to start the back story on the car was that it spent most of its life as a drag car and the guy i bought it from was trying to keep it as period correct to its history as possible .The frame was stripped and POR coated all new bushings thru out . Front end is a 4 inch drop super bell axel with wilwood disc brakes has all new power brakes under floor all new lines and proportioning valvehas new gas tank and lines as well as new electric fuel pump.Has mopar 83/4 rear end with 308 gears all new gears and races.The engine is a 1960 buick nailhead 401 thats 60 over 11 to 1 with 500 lift cam dynamics solid lifter cam with custom adjustable rocker arms.Has custom built hooker fender well headers.Also has power assist steering.The trans is a 1953 olds turbo hydramatic 4 speed auto trans that has also completely gone thru, custom mounts and driveshaft Thebody is painted in hot rod satin black with von dutch style pinstriping and graphics. has all new green tint glass and seals . front seat has beeb newely covered in rolled and pleated vinyl new carpet door panels are covered but does need interior finished and headliner all boware in car .Ihave all beltline stainless for car but honestly looks better without it have front and rear bumpers but both need rechromin, the nerf bars look much better and are period correct,, the paint has some nicks and scrathes from being in my bar, , THE CAR HAS ONLY MAYBE 3 HOURS RUN TIME IN TOTA, ,ive never driven car due to leaking front trans seal .
