'40 ford coupes....where are they?

What a Beauty!

 

My Dad had a car just like this in the middle 1950's in Indiana. Made him a model of it when I was a kid...same color too. Give anything to find that car!

 

Here's a couple of 40's I have had the pleasure of owning:

Sold this one last year:



Still have this Merc Flathead powered Coupe:

 

me got one to but no pix 89000mile , 5inch drop black suade,interior dun in 67 origina flatty, drive the shit outta her.

 

Here's mine. Should clean right up.

 

just found the thread.
this car is so right! anyone has more pix?

 

I just had a thread-gasm.

 

LOL...As soon as I saw that picture, I was wondering if it's the '40 that I remembered seeing in a mag some 25 years ago or so, from ALASKA... Scroll down and see this post, and sure enough.

Next to Gene Sonnen's '40 coupe (when he had the Americans on it), this is one of my all time fav's!

 

Gene Sonnen's '40, at the 1970 Peoria Nats.

 

Here's mine and the wife's contributions.

 

Does anyone here know anything about this '40 coupe? I would love to see more pictures of it, and if it is still around.

 

I took this one of my 40 Ford coupe at work the other day. This is the Shuttle Atlantis that is servicing the Hubble space telescope.

 

Neat picture ^^^

 

This is Soooooooooo right. I just had to see it again........

 

I just saw this car at a show last weekend in Bensalem, Pa then at a local "Fuddruckers" cruise on Friday night in NJ. Car is sweet...
