Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Houston is proud to offer one sweet custom 1940 Ford pickup. This is one cool custom truck! You don't see too many 1940 Ford trucks to begin with, but especially not Buick-powered trucks! This truck has a 322 CID engine from a 1954 Buick under the hood, backed by a 3-speed manual to keep you in control. Jet black paint, tonneau cover, Moon wheel covers, wide white wall tires, and just enough chrome make this truck catch your eye from every angle. The Fords from this era are bubbly and round and really have a good look. The large fenders, chrome grill, and split windshield give these trucks a cool vibe. The old Ford V8 emblem adorns the tailgate, and the grill is emblazoned with the V8 badge as well, to let you know this truck is no slouch. The driver will also appreciate the front disc brakes in the event they are enjoying that V8 a little too much. Two-tone pleated vinyl interior gives this truck comfort, and a bit of a street rod look as well; while the steering wheel and dash scream âoriginal!" There is a hint at the hidden hot rod, with extra gauges and switches under the dash. Options include AM/FM/CD player, hub caps, white wall radial tires, and vinyl interior.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
