40 standard coupe

here we go again--hope to have done minus uph by mid august--must be nuts !!!!

 

with all you gave done , you must have building a `40 figured out very well

 

THX 36-3 window---have done quite a few--7 coupes, a convert, a woody a sedan del and a 2 dr sedan--just looked at a nice 35 3 window too--might be next-but need to use up all the 40 pts too

 

You can do 'em with your eyes closed now, right?

 

Nothing nicer than a 40 standard -- unless it's a 39 deluxe.

 

love a 40 standard

 

ANY 40 is "Kool Beans"!! and Tim does em well.

Looks like a hell of a start. I would be interested in seeing more pics of the headers and steering box area if you have any and any info regarding that.

 

He's built a bunch of them---coupe, sedan, standard or deluxe, I like them all.

 

You're like the energizer bunny of 40 Ford builders Tim!

 

Go Tim go. Can't have too many 40's running around.

 

There he goes again, embarr***ing me for not finishing my ONLY 40 coupe. Looking forward to another stellar '40 build from Tim!

 

I looked for you at the show,figured i would see your 40.I drove my 40 from Missouri out and back,no issues.

 

Bangngears---saw pics of your 40 there sent to me by a friend--have'nt been to that show in 25 yrs--haven't been in SoCal for 15 yrs-maybe next year.

 

40's are my raison d'etre!!!!!!!

 

My feelings exactly- couldn't have said it better myself! Had a 1939 Std for 24 years-

 

THX for the comments--every 40 has it's challenges. Will be on this one full speed ahead. Told my wife this is the last one--she just laughed and said "you said that 4 40's ago" Just found a real nice orig 40 std coupe locally but still mulling it over-almost too nice to redo.

 

Good luck! I love those 40s....almost done with my first one

Update--been on a few trips for the past month and a half. Now back on the 40. It lives! Just fired it and broke in the cam, etc. Must have been 120 in the garage with it running for a while-wife helped but we got too hot after a while and quit for the day. Now just hang the front clip and off to uph. But that will have to wait a week or so after another fishing trip. Would have been done by mid June if not for the vacations, etc. Oh well-- it's not a race--when done I just have to go find another 40 to fool with I guess-on the lookout now.

 

Well here it is not quite the middle of August and you are right there at the finish. Love the engine looks. Tim
