REVELL-MONOGRAM, LLC Northbrook, IL. Copyright © 2004. All rights reserved. Made in China Over sixty years after its introduction, the 1940 Ford remains to this day a

classic in most everyone’s sense of the word. Even those people that do not consider themselves car enthusiasts recognize and generally appreciate the clean design of the Fabulous Forty.

Henry Ford, the founder of the company, is widely remembered as a mechanical genius and the man who developed the modern assembly line, among many other accomplishments. But designing past what was needed to foster efficient assembly was simply not one of Henry’s priorities. Through the company’s early years, Henry’s history making Model T’s were largely the same year after year and all painted black just to simplify production. The job of styling each year’s new Fords was left to Henry’s son, Edsel. By the 1930’s, Edsel’s positive influence was evident throughout the lineup. For the 1939 model year, Edsel and his staff moved the headlamps on the new Ford DeLuxe out to the fenders instead of on either side of the radiator grille. It was one of the first models designed in Ford’s new in-house styling department at the company’s headquarters in Dearborn and also one of the first that did not have Henry’s ham-fisted influence.

1940 carried over the new-for-’39 front end styling to include both the DeLuxe and less expensive Standard models as well as a new body nearly nine inches longer than the previous model. The result was a car that was not

only good looking, but also more spacious for its occupants.

While offering fewer color choices and less chrome trim than the DeLuxe, the Standard models still had that wonderfully flowing design. This was espe-cially true in the case of the coupe, the subject of your Revell kit.

Also commonly called an "opera" coupe at the time, the ’40 Standard came equipped with the 60 horsepower version of the famous flathead V8 along with a new-for-’40 steering column mounted shift lever. Available colors included Lyon Blue, Cloud Mist Gray and the ever popular Black with the upper dashboard finished in Briarwood Brown. Wheels were painted black on Standards regardless of body color and the right side tail lamp remained an extra cost option.

Whether you build up your coupe to look like how it would have when it rolled off the showroom floor in 1940 or as a modern street rod with a flame paint job and chrome engine and wheels borrowed from your other Revell kits, we hope you find as much enjoyment as we did developing your new 1940 Ford Standard Coupe.

* Study the assembly drawings.

* Each plastic part is identified by a number. * In the assembly drawings, some parts will be

marked by a star (★) to indicate chrome plated plastic.

* For better paint and decal adhesion, wash the plastic parts in a mild detergent solution. Rinse and let air dry.

* Check the fit of each piece before cementing in place.

* Use only cement for polystyrene plastic. * Scrape plating and paint from areas

to be cemented.

* Allow paint to dry thoroughly before handling parts.

* Any unused parts may be discarded. DECAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Cut desired decal from sheet.

2. Dip decal in water for a few seconds. 3. Place wet decal on paper towel.

4. Wait until decal is movable on paper backing. 5. Place decal in position on model, face up and

slide backing away.

* Etudier les schémas de montage.

* Chaque pièce en plastique est identifiée par un numéro. * Sur les schémas de montage, certaines pièces sont

marquées d'une étoile (★) pour indiquer qu'elles sont en plastique chromé.

* Pour une meilleure prise de la peinture et des autocollants, laver les pièces en plastique avec une solution détergente peu concentrée. Les rincer et les laisser sécher à l'air. * Vérifier que chaque pièce s'ajuste bien avant

de la coller en place.

* N'utiliser que de la colle pour polystyrène.

* Gratter les parties à coller pour enlever le chrome et la peinture. * Laisser la peinture bien sécher avant de manipuler les pièces. * Toute pièce inutilisée peut être jetée.

DIRECTIVES D'APPLICATION DES AUTOCOLLANTS 1. Découper l'autocollant désiré de la feuille.

2. Tremper l'autocollant dans de l'eau pendant quelques secondes. 3. Placer l'autocollant mouillé sur une serviette en papier. 4. Attendez que l'autocollant puisse être déplacé sur son support

en papier.

5. Mettre l'autocollant en position sur le modèle face sur le dessus et faire glisser le support pour l'enlever.

6. Appuyer avec un chiffon doux humide pour éliminer les bulles d'air. 7. La substance laiteuse qui peut apparaître est destinée à

améliorer l'adhésion de l'autocollant et devient incolore au séchage. Essuyer pour enlever tout excédent d'adhésif. 8. Ne pas toucher l'autocollant tant qu'il n'est pas bien sec. 9. Laisser l'autocollant sécher pendant 48 heures avant
