Hemmings Find of the Day – 1940 Ford Standard

Rum runner? Given the location – Dobson, North Carolina – the black paint and the hop-up parts, that’s certainly a possibility. From the seller’s description:

This car has a FLATHEAD engine with headers along with 3 carbs & aluminum intake. Edelbrock Heads help make this car a real find. Original 1940 NOS Running Boards.
