Default Re: 40 vs 39

The driving experience is different between 39 Deluxe and 40. Ford did a lot of work to refine the driving experience for 1940 and it worked. The 40s are a much more refined car, nicer to drive. If you were purchasing a second hand Ford to drive daily the 40 was a much better car. That reality probably helped 40s be more popular and valuable than 39s.
