damodelguy az Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 what if ford still made a 3 window coupe in 1940? maybe? ive seen some conversions, thought i would throw a saw at one. think i may clay, mold and cast? 3
Zippi Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) That is going to look super sharp Glen. Love that 3 window look. Edited June 16, 2022 by Zippi
Modlbldr Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 Looks great! I'd love to have a body of that. Later-
Vintage AMT Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 What a cool concept, only thing is the drip rail catches my eye immediatelly, just looks a little odd.

I think if the drip rail would have ended at the bottom of the window opening it would look a little better but, I'd buy one ☺
Plowboy Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 I would get rid of the divider on the rear window. It would make it a true three window. I agree with cutting away some of the drip rail also. 1
espo Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 I also like the look. The side window shape reminds me of the Willys 3 window.
TransAmMike Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 Yep, the 3 window look is a natural there. I agree with "Zippy" on the drip rail. And Roger, yours is super looking!! 1
Oldcarfan27 Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 Both of those are tasty. I can see a lot of possibilities with this.

If you're going to chop it, I recommend smoothing away the slight hump in the back for a more streamlined look.
damodelguy az Posted June 6, 2022 Author Posted June 6, 2022 thanx for imput guys, i was thinking along the lincolns drip. i like the double back window, just has that 40 look. maybe a 4 window would be better, nah, 3 winder still.
superbike-shaun Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 Hey Guys, I think any ' 40 Ford coupe looks awesome in Primer , w/ a 427 BB.in it and Corresponding deep Steelies fr/ RR, and the Driprail ,and the 3 window thing .

beeRS Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 That looks great as a 3-window. Very much like a Willys. The split rear screen gets my thumbs up too.
Oldcarfan27 Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 Here's the Lincoln. Although, I do think the wheelbase is a little long behind the door. The rest is just a stunning inspiration for your 40!
