Hello to all, just picked up a 1940 sport coupe deluxe, Pontiac looking to "fix ol'chief " AZ car all its life, low rust. Hope y'all can help... update: new shoes and smoothies (US-Wheel)
Great starter car! Welcome to the HAMB. Keep us up to date on your progress. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. Mike
ol-nobull/black fifty ...most of it is there but missing a few OE items, a piece of trim on the inside passenger door about 6-8 inches long and the front inner fenders, also steering column, that is all that i can see for this 40-2527... chassis looks mostly original. painted some time back with a gloss black. no rust issues from front to back (surface or superficial only) floorboards are fine as well as trunk. I am guessing it seats 4 with the back seat that is in it. Looking for a bench seat though, the 1965 impala bucket seats need to go. no engine or tranny (had a 440 chrysler and 727 in it) I want the outside and inside as close to original as possible because that is the reason i bought this fat fender... removed the wonky ass 10" wide ultra wheels and ordered some chromed steel wheels and moons. P/O moved the fill neck inside the truck, i will be putting it back where gm wanted [it in the fender.] this was a black car, paint code 2280=body fenders and wheels... hopefully you and others on the web world can assist me, want to get it rolling with in the next year.
