Desoto Hemi 2x4 V8 Motor!!!!

This is a very interesting 1940 Ford Two-Door Sedan Hot Rod with a Legendary Story!!

This '40 Ford has an incredible past: Built by two teenagers in 1957, they transformed it into a racing machine over two years. It was their pride until 1960 when one had to sell his share for college funds.

Later, it changed hands, underwent a rebuild, and emerged as the beauty it is today. The original owner found it unexpectedly at a car show in 2008 and reacquired it in 2010.

Powering this legend is a very rare 1957 Desoto 345 cu in dual four barrel Hemi V8 - the same heart that drove it when the boys originally built it in the late 50's. They found the motor in a junk yard out of a freshly totalled 1957 Desoto Adventurer. Combined with a 1939 LaSalle 3-speed manual transmission, it's a powerhouse of nostalgia and performance.

The Corvette Dark Red Metallic paint gleams as new, showing off the laser-straight body and flawless chrome. Inside, the custom beige leather interior adds a touch of elegance to this roaring beast.

This '40 Ford isn't just a car; it's a living piece of history that embodies the dreams of young car enthusiasts and the craftsmanship of bygone eras.

It's more than a purchase; it's an opportunity to own a slice of American automotive history. For those who appreciate the dedication, craftsmanship, and the thrill of a hand-built speed machine, this Ford is waiting for its next chapter in your collection. It is a wonderful story and history reaching back into another era!!!
