1940 Ford MOONSHINE Coupe! Engine bay, Interior and Trunk

Okay folks, now we're going to go over the engine bay, interior, and trunk of the 1940 Ford Moonshine Coupe. Let's start with the engine bay. Again, as in the other video, it does have the original Ford V8 3-speed column shift. It's a 48 Ford flathead 59L block. We'll get some, when we get this on the lift, we'll get pictures and photographs of any numbers and whatnot. Ported and relieved 4-inch Mercury camshaft. Rick Schnell built full metal deal flat motor. Dual Stromberg 97 carburation, high compression aluminum finned heads, Cal custom air cleaners, Reds headers, custom exhaust ported mufflers. You can see everything is done to a very, very high standard here, guys. I told you in the other video, my guy that I got this car from has a hell of a collection. He only has the best of the best, and if he's going to do it, he's going to do it right. That's what we have here. Look at that. May have been restored some years ago, but I tell you what, he kept it preserved in impeccable condition. Let's go around to the interior. Door cards are perfect, dash, everything is new, shiny, and pristine. Looks like it was just done yesterday. Love the black and white, the white seats with the black stitching. Love the split window. The steering wheel is leather wrapped. Love the old school compass. We're going to call the miles unknown. Then when we do the driving video, we'll let you know if all these gauges work as they should. Again, it's just as new. Two-tone visors, just really done to a high standard, and there's your moonshine, which is not really moonshine, but they kind of got that as a little gimmick, like a little vibe for the era of the car, and I can see why they would use this car to haul moonshine. Look at the freaking back, how much room you have there, and I'm sure they had a really heavy-duty suspension. They loaded this giant trunk with a bunch of moonshine, which is cool. I mean, could you imagine that alcohol was actually outlawed in the States at one point in time? It's crazy. There's all your paperwork. Again, impeccable trunk area. I'll have a photograph of every one of those up close so you can see kind of what's been done, but even if I had no paperwork, you could tell the restoration on this one was done to a high standard, as I like to say. Look at the knobs. All that stuff looks new and shiny and brand new, and so we're going to wrap this up. Today's Monday. Wednesday, my son, Christian, will be in. We'll get it up on that lift and get you some undercarriage footage, and I will tell you that the undercarriage looks as stellar as the rest of the car, so check it out. Any questions, put them in the comments section, and have a great day, guys.
