This Flathead has good power, as well as a terrific ride with a smooth-shifting 3-Speed Manual Transmission, this one is ready to be your favorite cruiser.

Interior

Our 40 has a restored maroon leather split bench seat interior with the matching rear seat and side door panels, factory dash and gauges, maroon factory steering wheel, maroon carpeting and floor mats, seatbelts, heater/defroster, three-speed manual shifter, and a tan convertible top.

This is a quality interior and everything has been done to make this one of the best interiors we have ever seen.

Exterior

This was a quality restoration of a 1940 Mercury Eight Convertible that has spent most of its life in California with the steel body that was a frame off restored build with a very high quality Garnet Maroon paint scheme that has a great gloss and depth that really radiates in the sun light.

The chrome bumpers, trim, running boards, window glass, and everything else must be seen to appreciate this car. It rides on factory stock maroon painted wheels and wide-white wall tires to give it the correct period look too.
