Mighty fine!

 

Thx again Danny, for letting me out of an attempt of once again advancing in the use of the new format on HAMB and the changes of of a new operaring system on my PC all at the same time.
And thx yall, for the compliments.
I didn't feel that at 77 yrs. old, I had it left in me to do another from scratch build. But I needed another hot rod for inclement weather when an old man like me has no business out and about in a *******, windowless, heaterless "A": roadster like my BGII. And this build is flawless and almost exactly as I would have built it, with skills exceeding mine, resulting in workmanship I consider top notch, and beyond my capabilities.

 

Great looking coupe

 

Smoove... Cl***y in a conservative kind of way.

 

Nice 40

 

I wouldn't have done anything different....she's a beauty

 

very nice 40--love the horn ****on too

 

Nice car, you made a good choice.

 

40's are the new deuce

 

That's a looker, welcome to the 40 owners brotherhood.

 

Great looking 40. Love the seat.

 

That's a nice un!! Hope to see it in person soon!

 

nice.....

 

Still waiting for a break in the weather to go get it, I spent a whole day up there looking at it, including an hour or so on a lift, before I did the deal, but I couldn't put it on that Delta MD-88 to bring it home. Man alive the weather has been a mess this Winter, for sure.

 

Dave: I'm right there with you man. I've been talking this over with my self and my wife for a while. You did good!!!! Hope you can get it soon. Tim

 

Beautiful, simply beautiful.

 

Sweet coupe

 

Great choice! I felt the same way when I got mine last year. At 72 I need heat and comfort and with a '40 coupe you get style by the mile. Good on you!!

 

It's a little tall but very very pretty

 

Very nice!Hope you can get home soon. Bob

 

What's under the hood?

 

Tom,I didn't get a engine photo in the email so I dunno. HRP

 

Great acquisition. Forties forever!

 

Driveline is SBF, mildly modded, T5, & Explorer rear shortened for 2 short side axles, posi. M2 ifs, 4 wheel discs.

 

Dang! A Ford in a Ford; 3 pedals, too! Imagine that.
Looks great to me.
Hope you have many safe and happy miles in your new ride.
