Vehicle Description
1930 Ford Model A
They don't make them like this anymore! A genuine piece of all
Detroit Steel just like Henry made it. OK...maybe a few exceptional
upgrades on top of that! It could have been one of the cars in
"American Graffiti" with all these looks and style.
It is powered by a rebuilt 286ci Ford V-8 with tri-power Stromberg
carburetion over a stacked intake manifold. That connects with a
dual exhaust going to the chrome tips in the rear that are
positioned just right. The engine brings back the "good old days"
with the Offenhauser bolted head covers and triple stainless steel
header set-up standing out proud for all to see. Always have to
love the sound of a flathead with that exhaust set-up...top
down...shifting through the 3-speed transmission and heading on
down the road.
This true hot rod sits on it's original frame, but has a dropped
axle and a Halibrand quick-change rear-end with Hydroyle brakes on
all four corners with Mustang 2 steering. It's all steel body sits
on a totally refurbished and painted frame supported by the classic
off-set steelies and bias wide white tires. The jet black paint is
exceptional with roped pin-striping and "Magic Sword" on the trunk,
which also is powered to open. If the weather happens to catch you
there is a like-new Hartz cloth top to catch the rain and curtains
to keep it outside.
While there is not much to a 1930 interior, this one has everything
you need. Equipped with incredible Ultraleather for comfort and
Stewart Warner gauges to tell you where everything is at as you put
the car through it's paces. It also has working turn-signals,
emergency brake, seatbelts and a main battery shut-off all in the
cabin. This way, when you inevitably get pulled over, you will pass
muster with the policeman who just wanted to take a closer look!
This is a ton of hot rod at one quarter of the cost of a '32 built
like this and the same class.
It will not last long at only $33,995.00!
This car is being represented for a collector in the Seattle,
Washington area.
