Redesigned with modern, streamlined styling and updated engineering, the 1940 Chevrolet lineup surpassed its Ford counterparts in sales. Notably, a 1940 Chevrolet business coupe, driven by future Grand Prix World Champion Juan Manuel Fangio, clinched victory in Argentina’s 6,000-mile Gran Primo International Del Norte race. This 1940 Chevrolet Street Rod showcases sleek, contemporary styling while preserving its original charm, featuring an unmodified OEM body adorned with eye-catching Tangerine and Blue-accented custom flames on the front end and hood, set against a pristine White paint finish.
Powering this custom ride is a small-block Chevrolet V-8 engine equipped with a polished aluminum intake manifold, Demon carburetor, serpentine-belt accessory drive, and headers linked to a full-length dual exhaust system. Notable upgrades include MSD 6A electronic ignition and 12-volt electrics. The Chevy boasts power steering, power front disc, and rear drum brakes facilitated by a modern dual-circuit master cylinder and vacuum booster. Key features include the OEM chassis frame, aluminum radiator, electric cooling fan, and transmission cooler. A Lokar-shifted GM 3-speed automatic transmission transfers power to the road through a GM 10-bolt rear end.
Enhancements extend to a modern Mustang II-type independent front suspension system with an anti-sway bar, disc brakes, and precise rack-and-pinion steering. The inviting interior boasts late-model front bucket seats upholstered in Burgundy cloth and vinyl, a custom center console with a Lokar floor shifter, and Burgundy carpeting. Passenger amenities include modern r134a air conditioning and a Kenwood AM-FM CD stereo head unit. Completing the luxurious cabin are a leather-wrapped Le Carra 4-spoke steering wheel, Beige custom headliner, a full complement of Stewart-Warner instruments, and a Quartz clock.
The trunk showcases a Chevrolet “bowtie” motif and houses a battery charger. Riding on Billet Specialties 5-spoke wheels with low-profile radial tires, this street rod boasts an aggressive stance. Ready for cruising and enjoyment, this 1940 Chevrolet Street Rod represents a high-quality custom ride.
