This
modified 1940 Chevrolet Master Deluxe has the look so many hot rods strive
for. The style, stance, and accessories all
give a ton of curb appeal. But this one is
more than just good looks. With big
block power, an overdrive transmission, air conditioning, digital gauges, and
more this is a car you can enjoy driving as well.
Titled
as a 1940 Chevrolet, this car started life 86 years ago as a Master Deluxe
two-door sedan but has come a long way since then. It received a major facelift from 1998-2000
followed by a refreshing in 2026 to create the street rod you see today. The steel body was repainted in black and is
nicely accented by the red pinstriping and Master Deluxe trim along with the
gorgeous factory grille and hood ornament.
Additional items include a windshield visor, yellow fog lights, and
frenched tail lights for a more distinguished look. The stance looks great with just the right
rake but without any interference problems.
Torq Thrust style wheels are also present with new BF Goodrich tires all
around.
The
engine is a Chevrolet 454 cubic inch big block with a nice combination of power
and street manners. It also sounds great
through the custom dual exhaust. Continuing
the powertrain is a 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission followed by a
12-bolt rear end. Mechanical upgrades include
an independent front suspension, power rack and pinion steering, and power
front disc brakes. It all makes for a
street rod that is easier to drive than you might think.
The
custom gray interior features a 60/40 split front bench seat with shoulder
belts. The rear seat is finished to
match as are the headliner and door panels.
A GM tilt steering column is present along with a full set of digital
gauges from Dakota Digital. The aluminum
dash panel also houses a digital radio with Bluetooth along with a Vintage Air
HVAC control panel. Note the 32.9 degree
a/c temperature shown in the pictures!
Everything works properly including the lights, turn signals, wipers,
and parking brake. Other features
include power windows, an electric trunk release, and dual remote door poppers. There is also a trunk mounted battery along
with external charging posts.
