Chevrolet Sedan 350 CID V8 1940
General description :
For sale at Gateway Classic Cars in our St. Louis showroom is a 1940 Chevrolet Sedan. This eye catching yellow street rod was a full frame off restoration and has covered a modest 2,911 miles. Fresh enough to look fantastic and enough miles to work out any bugs. This one is ready to enjoy! Power comes from a well built 355 Chevy small block V8 with a mild camshaft and a great exhaust note. Power is sent through a 700-R4 automatic overdrive and back to a Ford 9 inch housing 3.55 gears. Power four wheel disc provide strong and confident braking. A Mustang II designed front suspension aides in great steering and road feel. The Mustang II includes power rack and pinion steering with upper and lower control arms. In addition to the beautifully laid yellow paint, the car features a one piece windshield, all new tinted glass, frenched antenna, a recessed rear license plate plus a hideaway front license plate, custom headlights with built in turn signals and a roll pan for the front, rear and sides in place of the old running boards. Inside the attention to detail continues with a very unique yellow and aqua two toned leather interior. Classic Instruments adorn the dash with easy to read gauges. A tall shifter by Lokar makes for easy gear selection. Just ahead of the Lokar shifter are controls for the Vintage Air unit and above that is a new Sony Xplode CD player. Color matched seat belts are available for all passengers and billet window cranks add to the fresh interior. You would be hard pressed to find another like this. Not only is it unique, it is very well done. A seasoned hot rod builder put his experience to good use on this 1940 Chevy. For more information, call 618-271-3000 or stop by our St. Louis showroom.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
