1940 Ford Other Deluxe on 2040-cars
Sparta, Illinois, United States
Please contact me only at : claudianus_feuerhelm@aol.com Here is a nice 1940 Ford Deluxe convertible built to the late Forties hop upstyle. This neat original Ford was modified about 25 years ago by Hot RodHistorian Don Montgomery. The car was set up to be as it might have been in thelate 1940s. The exterior has genuine steel, DeSoto bumpers, flipper hub capswith beauty rings and original style rear fender skirts, with the correct leverclamping arms. The car is lowered using longer shackles and de-arched springs aswas often done back then (Note that the car is not as low as the present daystreet rods are). The 15" Ford wheels have 6.70 x 15 Firestone whitewall tireson them. The car is like a mild hop up (street rod) of that postwar period. Highperformance was not forgotten. The Ford/Mercury flathead engine has added speedequipment including a 1936 McCulloch supercharger, Edlebrock heads, a Potvin camand Fenton iron headers.

Mon, 12 Aug 2013Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working.

There are many things I could call this exercise. A party is not one of them.
I've spent three days crammed in the axle well of this 1989 Mustang with nothing to keep me company beyond a trouble light, a DeWalt drill on the very last of its legs and billion razor sharp, red hot slivers of metal with an affinity for my most sensitive of regions. My joints are raw from crawling around on the concrete. I'm half deaf from the shriek of the spot weld cutter and the boom of the cold chisel and hammer.
