Title: 1940 Ford Coupe
Post by: 37fordcoupe on March 28, 2009, 11:02:34 AM
My older brother just lost his job last week and lives in the Detroit area od Michigan, about five years ago he bought a 1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe to build his Dream Car, during this time he picked up about $6000.00 in new parts and had the rear fenders reworked, this was the only real bad area that needed attention. Well he call me yeaterday saying he going to sell the Ford with all the items he bought last year at the Louisville Swap Meet and he's asking only $10,000 for a 100% Steel Forty Coupe along with everything he bought. It also has a Small Block 350 Motor and Interior.

If anybody on the Forum is interested PM and and I will send you his contact information. He hopes to Keep his 1962 Grand Prix he's owned for 30 years, but with no job in the Detroit area who knows...

Again this is a Project that need to be completed but what a nice start...

One day late, and a dollar short, or something like that... I just bought a 40 standard coupe today, totally unmolested.  For $3. :shock:

I wish I had the cash....

There was many more items, but I can't recall everything...
