Gateway Classic Cars of Indianapolis is proud to present this 1929
Ford Model A "Rat Rod" for sale in our Indianapolis Showroom. "Rat
Rod" is: a semi-restored Hot Rod that is intentionally left with
the appearance of being incomplete. The Rat Rod is created of the
thought of awaking a (pre-WW II) vehicle from the dead and
embracing its natural form of deterioration, rust and all, while
the Hot Rod is immaculately restored and customized for high
performance. Rat Rods grow old gracefully while Hot Rods go under
expensive cosmetic procedures to appear like new. Rat Rods are
daily drivers better left unwashed, while Hot Rods only come out to
play in shows and require the high maintenance of wax and polish.
This Model A Rat Rod has made it way from Arizona to Indiana. The
frame is 1929 Model A, it has been boxed in critical areas for
extra strength. The roof of the cab is from a 1963 Chevrolet
Corvair. The front grill is from a 1947 Studebaker Grill. The dual
Stromberg carburetors are dressed out with a 1958 Cadillac air
cleaner. The Strombergs feed a 1953 331 CID Chrysler Hemi V8. No
fancy chrome here, just an old set of stamped steel Chrysler Hemi
valve covers with just the right amount of patina. Zoomy style
headers take care of the exhaust fumes, check out the super kewl
flappers that have been added. The body has been dressed with just
the right amount of patina that can only come from years of being
in the Arizona climate. If you ready to hit a "Beatersville" event
and fit right in call us before this rusto-rod fly's out of here.
