1940 Ford Tudor Sedan

Well-Built Custom Pre-War Ford Tudor Sedan Street Rod with 327 V8 Power

The 1940 Ford has long been a hot rod builder's favorite, thanks to its rounded bodywork, distinctive front end, and timeless proportions. This custom Tudor Sedan takes that familiar design in a colorful direction, pairing Emerald Green and Sage Metallic paint with a small block Chevy V8 and a beautifully finished interior.

Under the hood, a 327 cubic inch V8 topped with a four-barrel carburetor pairs with a Turbo 350 three-speed automatic transmission. Power steering and power brakes, plus front discs, make this '40 Ford comfortable to drive on the street.

The two-tone Emerald Green and Sage Metallic exterior is accented by green and yellow pinstriping that follows the Ford's flowing body lines. Shaved door handles give the body a cleaner look, while staggered 15-inch and 17-inch American Racing five-spoke wheels add a modern street-rod stance. Even the engine bay is carefully detailed to complement the rest of the build.

Inside, custom tan bucket seats are joined by a matching center console, custom headliner, tilt steering wheel, and Sony stereo. Power windows and air conditioning add modern convenience, while the trunk matches the passenger compartment.

With its distinctive paint combination, detailed craftsmanship, and dependable small block power, this 1940 Ford Tudor Sedan offers plenty to appreciate. It is a classic American street rod ready for weekend cruises, local car shows, and the pleasure of hearing that 327 rumble through its Thrush mufflers.
