Coach MaroonExperience Timeless Elegance with the 1934 Ford Model 40 Deluxe Roadster
This remarkable 1934 Ford Model 40 Deluxe Roadster represents a beautiful blend of classic design and meticulous restoration. As one of the last of the Model B series, this vehicle is a celebrated piece of automotive history that was cherished and maintained throughout its lifetime.
The Deluxe Roadster, with only 19,579 manufactured, boasts its status as one of the few surviving examples, meticulously restored and verified by the Early Ford V8 Club. Originally sold in 1935, it underwent a comprehensive restoration in the 1980s and was carefully housed in a museum before receiving additional mechanical attention in 2009. It stands ready for both show fields and roads with complete documented restoration work.
Exquisite Exterior Design:
The roadster’s design lines evoke a sense of grandeur reminiscent of British motoring, now draped in a captivating Coach Maroon finish with graceful Vermillion pinstriping. The vehicle features classic elements such as the shield-shaped front grille, sculpted fenders, suicide doors, and a tidy rear with a mother-in-law seat. Pristine Aurora Red 17-inch wire wheels, elegant bumpers, and a new tan canvas convertible top complete its striking exterior.
Elegant Interior Craftsmanship:
The minimalist yet sophisticated interior is adorned with saddle leather, seamlessly integrating comfort with historic charm. The door panels boast intricate stitching, while a plush bench seat ensures comfort with lap belts for safety. An artfully lacquered burl wood dash houses original instruments, delivering a classic and functional aesthetic, complemented by a well-preserved steering wheel and clean tan vinyl flooring.
Technical Specifications:
Beneath the hood, a 221ci flathead V8 engine accompanies a 3-speed manual transmission, providing compelling performance with a refined driving experience. The meticulously restored powertrain is a testament to precise engineering and dedication to authenticity. The vehicle is also upgraded with hydraulic drum brakes for enhanced stopping power, and its undercarriage reflects careful attention to detail, preserving the straight black steel and original design.
Smooth Drive and Agility:
Driving the Model 40 is a unique pleasure, seamlessly combining classic charm with impressive handling. It navigates effortlessly, reminiscent of the beloved British sports cars, while offering a spacious and comfortable interior.
This Ford Deluxe Roadster, graced with a clean title and a perfectly restored status, is more than just an automobile; it is a masterpiece awaiting its next enthusiastic owner.
