Vehicle Detail

This 1940 Ford Pick Up went through an extensive frame-off restoration by some of best auto-body guys in the business. The craftsmen who worked on this frame-off build took a personal interest in building this truck the right way - the meticulous way - because this truck was built as their crown jewel, their shop truck, and it was proudly displayed in their showroom to showcase their attention to detail and absolute dedication to craftsmanship. They built this truck right - no short cuts - everything done beautifully; from the body, paint and pin striping, to the underside, interior, wood bed, and engine compartment. Even the doors shut perfectly - super tight - as they should. It’s stunning inside and out, and even underneath. It was completely dismantled and put back together with every nut and bolt cleaned or replaced, and put back together better than new, and has over $20K in just the man hours of labor alone. It was prepped to perfection prior to paint - which is Hot Rod matte black with custom flames and hand painted pin striping/detail by one of the very best in the hotrod business. All this over striking red & black new interior. Truck Features: Frame Off, Nut & Bolt RestorationNew Interior Steel Body and New Bed with Wood stained Brazilian RoastFlat Head V8 runs beautifullyThree Speed on Tree - shifts flawlessly in all gearsDual exhaust gives it that low key throaty sounds Upgraded electrical and sports a new, but classic, digital gauge (with 1200 miles on it since build) and an Ahhhhh-UUUUGA Horn!Lots of extra partsToo much to list, so come over to see yourself and we'll go for a cruise, or send your mechanic to review this beautifully restored classic truck! It's in my private collection, registered (comes with bill of sale only, no title) and insured, so I can easily take you for a spin around town! Call or Text me for more info: 805-236-0210 ps- for those who asked, I acquired this truck when I learned that the owner/master builder had eye surgery and was retiring from building cars. I had admired this truck in his showroom for a long while and was honored to buy it. I'm only selling it now because I have 3 kids and they all fight over who gets to ride shotgun with me to the ice cream shop. So, I sold all my two-seaters, including my 1966 Corvette 427, and decided to only own vintage cars that can fit all my kids! Note: I'll include some pics I have of the build and some spare parts that came along from the builder. If for some reason you didn't want the hand-painted letters on the doors that read, "CUMMING Auto Collision", you can easily have the letters removed, or even have a local shop re-spay the doors with Hotrod Black(I have some left-over paint that comes with the truck). Personally, I love the shop lettering, but I'm biased because I live in Cumming, GA, and everyone here knows this local shop and how great their work is. For me, it's kinda like 'bragging rights' when you drive down the road, or go to a local car show.
