1940 Chevrolet Special Deluxe Cabriolet in Green & Engine Sound on My Car Story with Lou Costabile 

Another rare find. I really like that paint, & all the brighteork looks flawless, too. Thanks, Lou!

Ted is a very knowledgeable Chevy guy. I think he is a fan of everything Chevy except a 216 6 cylinder engine. Beautiful car.

This is a nicely-done beauty of a street rod. Why can't people be happy for him instead of bashing his Chevy?

Wow, wow, wow. The trunk and interior are delicious. This fellow has some really excellent taste and maybe Chevrolet also deserves some credit too. But all I can say is “I want one”. This car is jewelry for men as far as I’m concerned. I never saw the attraction in rings, necklaces etc. because they had no other function, but this is better than jewelry inside and out. Beautiful gauges too. So much nicer than rectangular designs like were in many of the cars to come later.

This car is why my 88-year-old mom has always used the expression "Deluxe."

What an awesome blast from the past - quite unique and spectacular! Thanks for sharing

Love every detail on this car.

You should get a lot more views lou. I love the effort you put into showcasing classics.

Wow, cool hulk of a car... big, beautiful and pretty green!! Nice yellow rims, looks good on it. I love the hood emblem! I like the little dash doll, made me smile. The black cover plays well against that classy grille... great duo! Just a magnificent ride! Really fun vid n story! Thank you!

Nice nice loved this one

A beautiful , practical and very Usable Car !

Great colour choices! Sometimes there are colours that add so much to a car and this is one of those cases. I guess what I mean is once you see the car in those colours, you’re hooked, but if I was going through colour samples, I can’t imagine going “those colours are going to look awesome”.

My grandfather had a 4 door hard top special deluxe. My grandmother is having it fixed as a late college graduation gift, looking forward to it.

The first and probably last time I will ever see a unique car like this one...

EU AMO ESTES CARROS ANTIGOS PRESERVADOS OU RECUPERADOS NA SUA ORIGINALIDADE.

Wow, what a very beautiful gal. Very great car and I like the way it's designed and the engine sound was fabulous, John

Thanks Lou, what an amazing car. The color combination is fantastic. Does the clear top part of "The Flying Lady" light up? That dash is beautiful. I really like the "Fuel Injection" script letters on the fire wall. Like on the 57 Chevrolets and Corvettes. The painted wheels, with trim rings and period hub caps are a great touch. Mr. Fuchs really did a good job on marrying the 1940 body to a modern chassis and running gear.

Cool car for sure.

Nice :)

Nice car. No longer a 1940 Chevy but I know some like the mods.

Wow, hand started in 1940!

I have a 1941 special deluxe coupe. Not as rare as the convertible. Nice car! The hood ornament Flying Lady appears to be the same as 1941. Everything else seems to be unique to 40 as the owner says.

Very Unique & Rare CHEVY.It Would Do Very Good At A Graded Car Show,Even Without the Orig.Engine

Hi Lou, the owner seems to be very well informed..

Lou, Says there are 48 comments with just over 20 showing. Please explain. Very interesting machine.

Great looking car. But the pep boys exhaust tips look bad. I would've put on the period correct exhaust tip covers.

I'd like to buy a 40 chevy convertible

Love the car , the leather chapps not so much.

Ruined it. Should have kept it completely stock. Did a nice job on it tho.

Nice car, too bad he had to destroy it.

Have someone who knowes Cars . This guy is clueless. About older cars
