1933 Ford Model 40 Deluxe 3-Window Coupe

This 1933 Ford Model 40 Deluxe is a three-window coupe finished in Coach Maroon and black with a tan cloth interior. It is powered by a 221ci flathead V8 paired with a three-speed manual transmission, and features include painted wire wheels, fog and cowl lights, a tilt-out windshield, a rumble seat, and an electric fuel pump. The car is said to have been repainted in the 2000s and was acquired in July 2022 by the selling dealer, reportedly from the family of its original owner. Subsequent service included an oil change and re-gapping the spark plugs. This Ford coupe is now offered with a clean Michigan title.

The steel body is finished in Coach Maroon with black fenders and features a beltline pinstripe along with chrome accents on the bumpers, grille, light surrounds, and side mirror. Additional features include a tilt-out windshield, dual cowl lights, reverse-hinged doors, and amber fog lights. The car was repainted approximately 15 years ago according to the selling dealer, and close-up images showing the paint, badging, lighting, and blemishes are included in the gallery below.

The painted 17″ wire wheels wear chrome hubcaps and are wrapped in reproduction Firestone whitewall tires. A spare is housed within the painted rear-mounted carrier. Braking is handled by four-wheel drums.

Tan cloth covers the bench seat and trim panels, while color-coordinated carpeting protects the floors. The dashboard and window surrounds are painted to match the body, and features include a floor-mounted shifter, a dome light, a rear window shade, and centralized throttle and choke controls. Noted wear on the seat fabric is depicted in the gallery below.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 90-mph speedometer flanked by fuel and ammeter gauges. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 50k miles.

The rumble seat features tan upholstery, and a vinyl floor liner is installed for the rear passengers.

The 221ci flathead V8 features a single downdraft carburetor and produced approximately 75 horsepower when new. An electric fuel pump is installed, and an oil change was completed in December 2022 along with re-gapping the spark plugs.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed manual transmission. Additional photos showing the suspension, chassis, and driveline are presented in the gallery below.
