Underwent Six-Figure Concours-Level Restoration starting in July 2010
The current owner of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Woody informs us that it underwent a multi-year rotisserie level restoration to transform it into the outstanding vehicle before you today. Below are some build notes on this gorgeous ride-
The Exterior
This 1940 Ford Deluxe Woodie Station Wagon was purchased by the current owner back in 1999 from the 3rd lifetime owner.  It was in rough shape at that time but with a largely unblemished body, it was the perfect candidate for a complete Concours-level restoration.  The next several years were spent gathering the highest grade parts and accessories to make this example better than new in every possible way.  The body underwent countless months of prep work so it was smoothed to perfection.  Two-stage paint and clear coat was then applied along with new chrome, the new cloth top and of course the gorgeous Maple inserts both inside and out.
The Interior
The interior of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Woodie Station Wagon received just as much attention with the same quality body work and VDO gauges framed in chrome and stainless, just like the rest of the dash and the tilt column steering.  Premium materials were chosen to show subtle accents of sophistication without going over the top.  The ultra-premium Teas leather seating and German woven carpet give this classic an extraordinary look with the highest possible levels of comfort.  The ceiling and side paneling is what clearly steals the show, however, with phenomenal quality and stunning craftsmanship.  We have literally never seen a more impressive build.
The Drivetrain
A look under the hood of this 1940 Ford Deluxe Woodie Station Wagon is truly inspirational since the build quality rivals a modern luxury sports car.  The professionally built LS1 engine sits perfectly with super clean wiring throughout.  With ceramic coated headers and a color-matched engine block, few builds can compare in elegance or overall build quality.
Always Maintained at the Highest Possible Standards
Additionally, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Woodie 4 Door Station Wagon has remained in temperature controlled storage since the final build was completed.  The builder/ owner informs us that it’s been driven approximately 6,400 miles since that time, mostly to exercise the engine and keep this one in perfect running condition.  It is regularly serviced with fluid changes as well.  Out on the open road, this example performs like a brand new luxury sedan with beautiful acceleration, excellent handling and an ultra-smooth ride quality.  There was no expense spared in any aspect of this build’s mechanicals and it could be driven cross country today.
In terms of its present condition, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Woodie does not show any visible signs of wear to the exterior body, the paint or the breathtaking interior.  The body lines are exceptional with superior chrome work and flawless wood paneling.  We honestly do not see a single aspect of this classic that can be improved on inside or out- many would consider it absolute perfection.
Truly One of the Nicest, High End Woodies in the World 
Overall, this 1940 Ford Deluxe Woodie Station Wagon is a true investment-grade classic that would stand out even in the finest of automotive museums.  We have not seen a more impressive build anywhere over the past decade and this example is likely priced too conservatively for such a stellar build.  For more information about this vehicle, visit our Fairfield, California showroom, give us a call at 707-419-8200, or email us at Sales@SpecialtySales.com.  Be sure to mention Stock # F13445 as well.

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
