For Sale is a 1940 Ford Convertible. It is a fresh restoration of an all steel Ford car with a newly rebuilt, bored, 53 Mercury Flathead and a true 1939 Ford top loader transmission. The engine supports duel Stromberg 97’s, a MSD distributor and special aluminum heads (Big Boys) handmade by Paul Samarin. These 3 1/4 inch high heads, besides looking great, provide extra cooling capacity and a mild gain in compression. The exhaust system consists of ceramic coated Red’s Headers, Smithy’s mufflers and aluminized dual pipes. The engine is cooled by a Walker Radiator with an electric cooling fan. Power is coupled to a traditional banjo rear end, lowered 5 inches. The front end has a 4 inch dropped axle, dropped spindles and a super slide spring attached to the frame by a traditional four bar setup. Brakes are 11 inch disk fronts and drum rears.
The body has been painted with Midnight Blue basecoat/clearcoat. The exterior body
is relatively stock except for shaved door handles (keyless entry), a decked trunk lid (keyless entry) and smoothie running boards.
The white vinyl interior and blue convertible top were custom made by Lebarron Bonney. Other interior features include, power windows, two speed electric wipers,
a custom dash with six Stewart Warner gauges and a classic 1939 Ford steering column with banjo steering wheel.
Since after all these years, I am still building early Fords, the asking price of $59,500 can be reduced by trading in an early Ford coupe, convertible or roadster project. Questions and additional pictures via e-mail at enzcss@netsync.net or call Neil at 716-672-2743.
